Critics Consensus: The plot is thin and so is character development, but as a thrilling, spectacle-filled summer movie, Independence Day delivers.

Reviews

The Wolfman Cometh

Patrick Cavanaugh

A defining experience for the '90s and set the formula for summer blockbusters, blending together bombastical action, heart, and humor.

Disaster master Roland Emmerich prefers his aliens hostile, hideous and prone to blowing up recognizable national landmarks.

If you see no other movie this summer, go see this one.

The term "mind-numbing" has never been more appropriate, since sitting through Emmerich's proceedings, gaps in logic and all, wears down on the viewer until their brain all but shuts down.

25YL (25 Years Later)

Don Shanahan

"Independence Day," then and now, remains the epitome of a stand-up-and-cheer movie.
