Great graphics, poor and loose storytelling

Rating: 1/10 (6 March 2016)

This movie... is so dumb.
The first part of the movie tells a copy cat story of the ending of Independence Day and then the movie is basically the plot for Independece Day 2 "50 years later"...
Enter our main character. If it wasn't for that his name is in the title I would forget his name. A couple of great actors are in this movie and all their talent is wasted - even Harisson Ford and Abigail Beslin.
The main character is such a wet blanket on par with Bella in Twilight. He is supposed to be a cool commander, but he is a skinny dork. Then they spend half the movie playing Space Quidditch, and then they go on to training for battle. This "Space Quidditch" has NOTHING to do with the actual job at hand - it is just DUMB.
The Aliens they are supposed to fight we know nothing about, and we really never see them or understand what their intentions are. The Aliens in Independence Day are underdeveloped, but still classical. These are just dumber versions of the Arachnids in Starship Troopers.
And then there is THE HORRIBLE ENDING!!!!!
My God, the ending is SO BAD! All of a sudden the kid has a connection to the poor little aliens that he ends up completely murdering and he wants to make amends. This story relates nothing to anything.
This movie is just a bunch of loose ends. It is like watching 6 different stories in the same universe with different main characters. After the movie I still don't know what it really is about.
THE END?
