| Professional Review: |
| In Independence Day, a scientist played by Jeff Goldblum once actually had a fistfight with a man (Bill Pullman) who is now president of the United States. That same president, late in the film, personally flies a jet fighter to deliver a payload of missiles against an attack by extraterrestrials. Independence Day is the kind of movie so giddy with its own outrageousness that one doesn't even blink at such howlers in the plot. Directed by Roland Emmerich, Independence Day is a pastiche of conventions from flying-saucer movies from the 1940s and 1950s, replete with icky monsters and bizarre coincidences that create convenient shortcuts in the story. (Such as the way the girlfriend of one of the film's heroes--played by Will Smith--just happens to run across the president's injured wife, who are then both rescued by Smith's character who somehow runs across them in alien-ravaged Los Angeles County.) The movie is just sheer fun, aided by a cast that knows how to balance the retro requirements of the genre with a more contemporary feel. --Tom Keogh |

 Written on June 17, 2008 Summary: Wow! Great Movie! This is one of my favorite movies, and Blu-ray just makes it look even more incredible! Written on June 9, 2008 Summary: ID4 Review A guilty pleasure. Leave your brain at the door. It's showing its age, perhaps its the nostalgia but it was enjoyable. Written on May 28, 2008 Summary: Excellent Transfer!! This has always been one of my favorite big-budget action movies - but the my review isn't in regard as to weather this is your kind of movie or not. The transfer is wonderful. The bitrate stays consistently at 30Mbps (BLU-RAY)and upwards of 40Mbps - if I recall correctly. Although, the video does show some grain and artifacts occasionally - like during the dark scenes, open sky, or just the desert sand. I only notices these imperfections on a 70-inch(at 1920x1080). On my 50+inch plasma (at 1360x768), the transfer was unbelievably sharp. A must buy, since I got it at Amazon for less than $15. Written on May 27, 2008 Summary: its a keeper! I first saw this at its opening in 1996 and it was the block buster of the summer. The transfer to blu looks really good (a little grainy in spots and may be the print, but I never noticed). as with most really good blu-rays you get lost in the movie and forget about the technology pretty quickly since the quality is so good. The sound is absolutely spectacular and will give your subwoofer a workout. I cant believe this is over 10 years old but is a clasic summer block buster movie. a must have for your blu ray collection Written on May 27, 2008 Summary: The Purpose of Blue Ray Independence Day (ID4) is a Great Movie and very enjoyable on standard DVD. But when you watch it on Blue Ray it EXPLODES. The 5.1 Surround is so pure and extremely exciting. The PQ is pristine and details which may have been overlooked in Standard DVD come alive in Blue Ray. While not every movie needs to be viewed in Blue Ray, this is one that should be in the Top 10 of everyone's collection. |
