Review of Independence Day (1996) by Davenbettridge — 04 Sep 2011

Just because a movie is trying to be a 'popcorn flick' and not trying to be intelligent does NOT make it a good one. Will Smith crack pot lines throughout this movie are annoying, America is the best country in the world theme is freaken retarded, the characters are shallow and uninteresting, the story is pretty lame, and there are far too many illogical plot developments for this movie to be good.

Asides from a few minutes of special effects which are pretty memorable, Indepence Day is a weak movie with weak characters and a predictable story.
