Independence
Day: Resurgence 3/10
After
being asked to play the female president in Independence Day:
Resurgence actress Susan Sarandon said “When I read the script, I couldn't
understand what was going on. I just couldn't understand it.
Seriously. A lot of the people from the original one were not going
to be doing it, and I read it and I just thought, 'No. I can't. I
just can't'.” She made a good choice. This movie wasn't hot garbage
but I would never tell someone to watch it no matter how much they
liked the first one. This takes place twenty years after the first
and in case you're wondering, Vivica Fox is not still a stripper. She
a nurse now. Yay her...I guess.
The
world is at peace after beating the aliens all those years ago the
same year I lost my virginity but for whatever reason there are still
warlords toting guns in Africa. You know what? That is something that
always bothered me about the first movie. How in the blue hell did
they bring the ships down in Africa?! They show people cheering with
spears in the air with a city size ship going down in flames. How?!
How they do that?! Anyway, everyone has alien weapons now and
suddenly even though we have a shit ton of their weapons and
technology from reverse engineering them we can't spot a ship coming
that, I shit you not, is 3000 miles big. That is not a typo. “It
came through a wormhole.” Kiss my ass, wormhole.
Will
Smith is not back but Jeff Goldblum, his annoying dad, the dude that
played the president in the first one, as well as Data from Star Trek
are around. The plot is pretty much the same as the first but less
entertaining. Given the fact that this is twenty years later its
weird that the special effects in this look so video game like. All
ship shots were from the cockpit and then the wider action ones were
video games. Smith's kid in this watches his mother die and less than
a day later he is flying through the sky laughing and shit. Lot of
dead parents in this. Oh, and there is a scene in Singapore where in
case you were wondering what country there were in a Chinese food box
floats up in a cab. Millions of people dead. They plan on making a
sequel. My ass they will.

Yeah, I had no idea what was going on in this movie either. What a waste. Susan Sarandon was right.
