A fun, classic 90's science fiction flick, nothing more.

Rating: 7/10 (6 November 2013)

I just watched this this past July 4th for the first time, and it was just about what I expected, a fun action/alien summer flick. It was fun and dumb, and great to watch with family and friends, as long as you don't expect something like Aliens or Predator.
Now to get into the details, the movie is casted perfectly, especially Jeff Goldblum and Will Smith as the stars. The script is well written with some of the best one liners of all times. The story is not particularly original, but not cliché to the point that it is not enjoyable. The acting is good and unlike most science fiction movies now a days (I'm looking at you Michael Bay) the characters are like-able. So all in all this movie is definitely a must see, you will not be disappointed, just don't expect a smart plot.
