Review of Independence Day: Resurgence (2016) by Fantasy — 25 Jun 2016

Let me preface my remarks by stating I was at the midnight screening for the original Independence Day in a jam packed theater twenty years ago. It became one of my favorite movies as I must have watched it a million times.

I can recite just about every line in the original. When I heard they were making ID2 I couldn't wait as I tried to get every bit of information I could. I saw it today. How in the world can anyone connected to this project look at themselves in the mirror.

Without question it is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. How can you take something so special and turn it into a computer generated CGI video game. There is nothing to like here. The script is totally lame! The acting terrible.

And the directing possibly the worst I have ever seen. You care nothing for any character. When you make a movie there is supposed to be a story. Sadly, there isn't any. They took the original and turned into a video game with explosions.

Giving this movie a rating of one is stretching it. Roland should be ashamed of this utter garbage.
