In Independence Day, a scientist played by Jeff Goldblum once actually had a fistfight with a man (Bill Pullman) who is now president of the United States. That same president, late in the film, personally flies a jet fighter to deliver a payload of missiles against an attack by extraterrestrials. Independence Day is the kind of movie so giddy with its own outrageousness that one doesn't even blink at such howlers in the plot. Directed by Roland Emmerich, Independence Day is a pastiche of conventions from flying-saucer movies from the 1940s and 1950s, replete with icky monsters and bizarre coincidences that create convenient shortcuts in the story. (Such as the way the girlfriend of one of the film's heroes--played by Will Smith--just happens to run across the president's injured wife, who are then both rescued by Smith's character who somehow runs across them in alien-ravaged Los Angeles County.) The movie is just sheer fun, aided by a cast that knows how to balance the retro requirements of the genre with a more contemporary feel. --Tom Keogh
Special affects were goodReview date: 2010-07-26 Rating: 10 out of 10The aliens used satelittle signals for count down. The movie provided inspirational sci-fi imagination using elements of "Encounters of the Third Kind" (helicopter communication), "War of the Worlds" (squid creatures), "Star Trek - the movie" (The mother ship), "Vegas Christmas" (RV parade), Firefox (Fighter pilot escape from the aliens), Juriasaic Park (Genius wiz), Topgun (Marine jet fighter image)
The aliens are locust like and destroy worlds they invade. A computer virus disables the aliens electro magnetic shield. The President of the United States leads a charge against the alien nation leading the world to destory their ships. A unrecognized Vietnam Vet reveals the weak point of the ship having been abducted by the aliens and gaining access to their design structures.
