Customer Ratings & Reviews

I loved the first Independence Day, I re-watch it from time to time. I knew that this sequel had gotten so so reviews, but I though how bad can it be? Well the answer is pretty bad. The screenwriters just basically took the first script and switched a few things and not for the better. Acting is terrible, overacting and juvenile antics.

Not as good as the first, the filmmakers are too concerned with setting up more sequels instead of just delivering one good movie.

The movie was a little slow, so I fell asleep. The special effects were not bad, but I would have to try to watch the movie again.

Seems like they tried to do the same thing in this movie as the 1st. But it is 3d which brings it up to 2 stars

Twenty years after mysterious aliens nearly wiped out humankind, they're back with a vengeance but no Will Smith to save the day.

This film is hardly worth the time to watch it. Silly and obvious plot, amateurish acting. Save your money and your time.

Nothing like first one which was more realistic. I lost interest after only 8 mins. of movie. Sci-fi version of dumb and dumber.

there are aliens, big guns, and big explosions. We're not talking 'Driving Miss Daisy' here. pop some corn and sit back.

AI liked the first movie and would hope this one would be as good or better. Unfortunately, it's somewhat boring and not as good.

This was not the sequel I had hoped for when I watched it. Some decent CGI and Goldblum does a good job, but not much new here.

Was really hoping to see more action and a better storyline, entertaining but does not deliver, like the previous installment.

I'd wait for it ta hit the bin!!! Glad I didn't spend movie theater type money on this!!! Horrywood has lost their touch!!!

Movie was just okay. Some of the cinematography was cool, but the story was just okay. Sometimes difficult to follow.

Ehh... wait for the $5 bin. Not the best movie, but cool they brought several people back, except for the one that matters.

Story was poorly written, acting was subpar, visuals were actually not to bad which is why it got 2 stars instead of one.

Not as great as the first movie i would not purchase this again glad i got it on sale

I got this to go along with the original. Mistake! Without Will Smith, this movie basically flops - run away, seriously!

They should have left the 1st a one of a kind classic. Actors I love. Story should have went back to the drawing board

That may sound harsh, but I had such high hopes for this film. I could have been great. BUT NO. Special effects were great. All the original actors (except Will Smith) were back = Great. Story line = Horrible. I do not know wither it was the directors fault or the writers fault. Bad dog, Bad dog. I would recommend this to friends an family only as a learning tool on how to waist potential

It is very similar to the original, only much worse. I would rent it, not purchase. I probably won't watch it again.
