Tradition with a twist

Rating: 9/10 (21 August 2002)

This has got to be one of the best UFO/alien movies I have ever seen. It has great acting, wonderful special effects, great cast, very funny and a lot of action. With the story, while being traditional, it adds a few twists. Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones are a great team. Linda Fiorentino is REALLY hot, and Vincent D'Onofrio is a great "villain". With lines like, "NYPD, means I will knock yo punk-a** down" - Will Smith and "Let me tell you something about all of your skills... as of precisely now, they mean absolutely... d**k - Tommy Lee Jones. With PLENTY of other classic funny and cool lines, this is automatically a film classic, recorded in movie history as being the highest grossing picture in the history of Columbia Pictures. The only reason I didn't give it a perfect ten is that the last line by Fiorentino is kinda pathetic. Other than that, a great movie for ALL movie-viewers.
