A disparate ensemble of heroes band together to defeat the alien invaders who are bent on exterminating mankind with formidable firepower. On July 2nd, communications systems worldwide are sent into chaos by a strange atmospheric interference. It is soon learned by the military that a number of enormous objects are on a collision course with Earth. At first thought to be meteors, they are later revealed to be gigantic spacecraft, piloted by a mysterious alien species. After attempts to communicate with the aliens go nowhere, David Levinson, an ex-scientist turned cable technician, discovers that the aliens are going to attack major points around the globe in less than a day. On July 3rd, the aliens all but obliterate New York, Los Angeles, and Washington. The survivors set out in convoys towards Area 51, a strange government testing ground where it is rumored the military has a captured alien spacecraft of their own. The survivors devise a plan to fight back against the enslaving aliens, and July 4th becomes the day humanity will fight for its freedom. July 4th is their Independence Day...

I liked it, it was a cool and unique movie. But there was a few things I didn't like about it, and here's what they are, and warning, this may contain a little bit of spoilers: One, It wasn't exciting enough, there wasn't enough action and random boring scene here and there. Two, the special effects were great but the special effects for the aliens were not that great, they kind of looked like some kind of puppets. And three, there was one scene where a guy said to his dad that smoking is not healthy, and I was very happy he said that, until later he smoked for himself and liked it, and his dad eventually comes by and sees him smoking and says "What happened to smoking is not healthy", and than he says happily that he can get used it. I was furious on the inside when that happened. I want people to quit smoking, not to continue to smoke or want to! A kid or just someone regardless might get inspired to smoke by this. That is a maybe, and probably not, but possible.

Great movie. The one star is for Google movies. Stay away from buying movies from google. I constantly have problems streaming movies from Google. I have a 100MB connection and have no problems streaming from Netflix or Amazon. Google is not ready for prime time when it comes to streaming. Constantly locking up during the movie. Luckily I have only purchased a few movies from Google. NEVER again.

Kinda lost me when Smith defeats an advanced interstellar warrior--wearing combat armor--with a single punch. Why didn't they just chase the aliens away with brooms?
