On July 2 of a future year, monitoring stations across the United States spotted a massive spacecraft hundreds of miles in diameter approaching Earth. The radio signals from the spacecraft interfered with the signals of Earth's communications satellites and sent several sub-ships up to 15 miles in diameter over major cities on Earth. The alien spacecraft's friends and foes were unknown, and people fell into panic and confusion. When computer engineer David (Jeff Goldblum) deciphers the radio signal sent by the aliens, which is actually a countdown signal to the attack, he manages to notify his ex-wife, Connie, the president's assistant, but it's too late, July On the 3rd, the alien spaceship began to attack the earth, and human civilization suffered a huge blow and disaster in an instant. The president (Bill Pullman) and others evacuated to the military base and directed the air force to counterattack, but it was like hitting a stone with no effect, and the military base was destroyed, only the pilot Steven (Will Smith) managed to lure a man. An alien combat airship crashes. The survivors have fled to a secret military base, where scientists have been studying an alien airship that crashed more than 50 years ago in an effort to find a way to deal with aliens, the last hope for humanity...

    I always don't understand those deliberate settings that don't affect the direction of the plot. For example, why does Will Smith's wife have to be a stripper with a child and just please the whole family? And the President's wife, who was still dead after tossing for so long. It's procrastinating and doesn't help the advancement of the plot. In addition, black actresses are really beautiful~

    After watching it, it was released in 1996! Now it seems that although the picture quality is a bit poor, the special effects are adequate, and the plot is also extremely outstanding in similar movies. Four-star is now, as it was then, five-star.

Independence Day quotes

  • Gen. Gray: Mr. President, I'd sure like to know what you're doing.

    President Thomas Whitmore: I'm a combat pilot, Will. I belong in the air.

  • [the President briefs the pilots before the final attack]

    President Thomas Whitmore: Good morning.

    [PA doesn't work. Turns it on]

    President Thomas Whitmore: Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. "Mankind." That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it's fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom... Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution... but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: "We will not go quietly into the night!" We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!
