Senseless, Stupid, Violent

Rating: 1/10 (28 January 2007)

There is nothing to recommend this horrible movie.
To graphically depict widespread death and destruction and to computer-generate marvelous landmarks being obliterated one after another is an unconscionable travesty in the name of entertainment and the quest of the almighty dollar, peso, yen etc.
There is enough real mayhem in too many parts of the world to make this mess unnecessary.
Nothing can justify this flick - it has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. This is violence and destruction aimed at a cretin populace that is too stupid to know right from wrong or good from bad.
Will Smith is his unbearable self. There is no humor in this story.
Overall, Independence Day is a sickening and perverse waste of time, money and talent. The producers, actors and studio made a fortune by creating this stupid, senseless "thing".
I saw it at a friend's house on DVD and didn't pay a dime. I feel like they owe me for wasting 2 hours of my life watching this load. It stinks out loud.
