When I saw it, a level 65 grandpa was snoring. Also those kids driving the station wagon were goofy looking. Think they cast them to look like their dog?

They might as well would have let jaden smith play will smith's fake son because that dude sucked too. At least then we could funny bad acting.

I feel sorry for all the losers out there who aren't pumped about this movie. The fact it isn't a reboot or redo is pretty drat amazing and the fact they got most of the cast back is just as cool.

I'm seeing it tonight and can't wait. Is that glass bulletproof? No sir.

Nothing really quotable from the sequel. See it once, don't see it twice.

This movie gets one shark tooth out of ten, Brent Spinner (Data) was the only good part, it felt like I was watching a lovely 90's movie... maybe I was supposed to feel that way?

I liked the patrice comment on the first movie how the black girlfriend had to be a stripper instead of some other job like teacher or nurse.

yeah OR despite being a stripper which is traditionally viewed as a negative career choice she is a great mother who lives a pretty good life in a loving nuclear relationship

but good lord will smith's (movie) son watching that scene going "NO MOM NO!!!!!" hahaha gently caress this movie

I was fairly buzzed when I saw it, and it was okay. Not actually good, but a decent waste of time. I liked the giant kaiju at the end.

There were maybe 30 people in the theatre, all of whom talked through the second half.

4/10, would not turn the channel if it came on tv and I was busy doing somethng else.

There were quite a few characters who could have just been cut from this movie, like David's fatha and his roving band of children he adopts (because if you'll remember, from the beginning of the movie he's salty that David never gave him any grandchildren... it's like poetry, it rhymes!).

Maybe the cold fusion dealio damaged it and wore it down? I was wondering about that too.

I still enjoyed the movie and wish more people would go see it. Whoever said this movie didn't have any cool quotes obviously missed Brent Spiner talking about his kickass 1994 laser or "we've got alien guns?!" line haha. I do like that he was in a coma for 20 years and of course like the one thing I didn't see coming Bill Pullman shaving off his beard and becoming a badass again

I don't have low self-esteem. I have low esteem for everyone else.
The movie is almost a decent follow up to the original until after the hour mark and then it just turns into a loving cartoon.

When Hiller Jr., Mr. HotShotNotThor, and Token Chiense Girl go inside the New Mothership™ I start losing a bit of believability from little tiny things...the plant life looks boring and typical and not at all alien or foreign, the laser cannons the aliens have...same thing. But whatever...annoyances sure, but I can try and ignore it. And then...then the ally alien speaks in area 51, in english, in some sassy robot woman's voice and just gently caress me, I almost burst out laughing followed by walking out what is this goofball poo poo.

Saw the movie, was happy as it pretty much matched my expectations. It had the classic big budget sci-fi with loose scientific consulting combination that is so hard to find in movies nowadays. It wasn't objectively good, but neither was the first one. I just wanted to see another independence day movie and that's exactly what was delivered.

Then again I'd watch a movie with nothing but 90 minutes of Jeff Goldblum stammering on about whatever.

It's the loving prequel to Destiny. The "good" alien we shoot down at the start? It looks just like the Traveler, just smaller. And it teaches us the secret to interstellar travel and gives us super high tech weapons and poo poo for the sequel. Also the bad guys are LITERALLY THE HIVE complete with boss fight against a Queen, featuring multiple stages in a desperate last stand for humanity that destroys a big chunk of earth.

Why am i spoilering this poo poo? Its pretty much straight from the game.

Yeah, Bill Pullman sounded pretty drunk for most of the film, but his "Heh heh, yeah we got ya baby. Happy Fourth of July! ;)" was pretty great. Too bad he didn't actually kill her, that would have been a better end.
