Amazon.com essential video:
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

Average Rating :

Rating : - Decent movie, above average transfer
Idependence Day is more or less pure brainless entertainment, and that's all it's meant to be. It does this very well, with fast pacing, lots of explosions and interpersonal drama. The effects have held up a lot better than I'd have thought they would as well. It isn't a movie to watch for social commentary or anything like that: pop it in, grab some beer and pizza and enjoy.

The Blu Ray version of the movie is *very* impressive. They added a little bit of extraneous footage but nothing damaging (I think it was probably just a few minutes total anyway), and the picture quality was above and beyond what I'd expect. This particular movie helps show how nice hi def can be on a big screen, better than most. There are details I just never could have made out on DVD. I didn't think the audio was as impressive as the visual, but it was still certainly decent. They obviously cleaned up the source material before pressing to Blu Ray. There aren't a whole lot of extras, but this isn't the sort of movie to really benefit from those anyway IMO.
