Bored, slow, overforced, a bunch of patriotic clichés.
I had no expectations for this movie. I have to be honest, my friend turned it on and for the first like 20 minutes I thought we were watching pacific rim. It was very hard to stay focused because none of the characters felt likeable, interesting or even remotely memorable. Some movies don't need a sequel. On the plus side though, Jeff Goldblum.
Oh, man! Hollywood and its hunger for money! If a could rate it in negative numbers it would be a -10. The screenplay is stupid and chicle. I think that's Will Smith rejected it (besides the money), everything is forced justified. And the cast is lame. Even Jeff Goldblum looks like a extra with lines.
Loved the original "Independence Day", bit the follow up. 20 years later, is a weak copy. Not least is Will Smith missing. something I never thought I would be writing, but his 'son' (played by Jessie T. Usher) is so much a weaker actor. Liam Helmsworth is so much better, in every way, than Usher, who is more like a shadow, sadly.The story is OK, not brilliant, but OK, while the original also crams out a better story, better action from Judd Hirsh, and Jeff Goldblum (why isn't Will Smith part of the cast - too costly?).As I wrote, why isn't Will apart of the story?!Without, it is a lame update.
