Independence Day was one of the much anticipated movie like Jurassic Park, true to its form, it was a perfect hollywood movie and a master of special effects hype. The story of the movie has been repeated 'N' numbers of times in the hollywood history, but what makes the movie different its technical wizardry.
The movie is as usual with a simple plot, Bill Pullman plays the US President, who faces the challenge of dealing with the invading aliens. It becomes too confusing in the being for the Government to whether the aliens are friendly or hostile, this is answered by the aliens in a form of blowing up the skyscrapers to pieces with their nasty beams. With the aliens in full attack mode, it's is up to the talented and industrious Americans to stand up against the aliens to save the world! Jeff Goldblum is a crack-pot communication genius, who find's out the alien's intension and take on to break the backbone of the highly technical alien stuff.
It all starts out when a heap of spaceships, each a size of a big city take their position over a number of cities all over the world for a invasion. The whole world is excited just like US President himself start out a celebration to welcome them. US President Bill Pullman decides to send a Helicopter to welcome them as guest and get's hit back by them with their laser beam. NOW! it is time that US plays UNCLE SAM to take on the alienships to protect the world from the invaders.
David (Jeff Goldblum the mathematician from Jurassic Park) is a communication genius finds out that the aliens are using our own satellites to communicate between their spaceships to invade the PLANET EARTH! He being an ex-husband of an White House Staff, get's a chance to explain it to the US President. The President decides to fight back the invasion, meanwhile Will Smith a fighter pilot with a lots of guts finds himself on a chase with the alienships, where he does damage a spaceship which crash on to the ground. Will Smith takes the alien to the Area 51 (which is consider to the top-most secret of the US, a place where research on aliens has been going on since a long time).
NOW the airforce gets ready to hit back, find shortage of pilot's, president gives a outstanding speech, which in turns makes the some of the ex-pilot to turn on to fight back the aliens. Airforce pilot try their luck by target a alienship with missile, which doesn't even touch the alienship edge. Our Communication genius comes up with a brilliant idea of infiltering the alienships communication system and mothership itself with VIRUS! And the rest is history as your KNOW! Movie was a major hit all over the world!
The movie bounces back every now and then with some special effects, which are very exciting. The movie has a excellent soundtrack music and some classic shots, for example, like White House and Empire State Building being blown into bits and pieces. Special effects are really incredible!
The concept of movie has visited us a lot of time, it is a movie with a mix of War of Worlds, Star Wars and even Stargate. But this movie makes a great entertainment, with some funny humour, touching drama and thrilling excitement until and unless if you don't take them serious.
