Our family always watches "Independence Day" on the week of the 4th of July. The speech by Bill Pullman always brings me to the verge of tears. Same here. The 4th is just not the same unless we see this one.

Independence Day is a blatant rip off of other, better, SF stories. Particularly elements of Clarke's Childhoods End and Niven/Pournelle's Footfall are blatantly stolen for this (fun to watch) mish mash.
Not an original thought in anyone head involved with this movie, but it was fun.
