I have always been a fan of science fiction premises, especially when they translated into major movies. So, when I first heard of ID4 Independence Day I couldn't believe I would ever get the chance to see such an unimaginable story. It was something totally even though it was based on the old disaster motion pictures of the seventies.
This movie already impresses the entire audience only through its visual effects. The earliest visual shots are already breathtaking. I couldn't believe I would ever see images of mass destruction so perfectly rendered.
Although back in 1996 these particular scenes impressed me beyond anything I've ever seen before, not even those scenes can possibly be compared to the terribly unfortunate and horrendous tragedy that has recently struck the World Trade Center.
Writers Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich have created characters I've become very fond of and wrote an incredible story. Director Roland Emmerich really captured the spirit of those old disaster movies and did it with an amazing talent, backed up by a majestic score composed by David Arnold.
Emmerich selected very talented names for the roles like Jeff Goldblum (Jurassic Park), Bill Pullman (Casper), Judd Hirsch (Taxi) and also well known names like Harry Connick Jr. and Randy Quaid.
I've recently bought this masterpiece on DVD. It surprised me more than any other DVD I've ever bought, given the added special features as well as the Theatrical Version and the Special Edition. It was a blessing to see this movie.
