Review of Independence Day: Resurgence (2016) by Fionnuala Halligan for Screen International — 20 Jun 2016
Resurgence doles out the action and effects work in carefully calculated, incremental doses, which give the film a cumulative tension. Even if it’s hokey and jokey, this is a loud, effects-driven piece, with a driving score.
For fans of Roland Emmerich disaster movies, this both hits all the marks, while delivering nothing new.
