In America, alla vigilia dei festeggiamenti per il giorno dell'Indipendenza, viene percepito un segnale radio proveniente da fuori lo spazio terreste. Il giovane Presidente Thomas J. Whitmore annuncia in televisione che sono stati avvistati esseri extraterresti in tutto il mondo: il messaggio scatena il panico. Il Presidente, su consiglio di Constance Spano, responsabile delle relazioni esterne, riceve un ricercatore elettronico, David Levinson, ex marito di Constance, il quale sostiene di aver scoperto che gli alieni si sono impossessati dei satelliti americani e li stanno usando contro i terrestri. Alle prime avvisaglie di un attacco contro la Terra il Presidente Whitmore accetta di trasferirsi altrove: si scatena l'attacco degli alieni e una nube rossa segue l'aereo presidenziale che perde ogni contatto radio. Poi l'aviazione americana tenta un attacco all'astronave base ma i missili sono bloccati da un sistema protettivo che rende la base invulnerabile ed intere squadriglie aeree vengono distrutte. Su intervento del segretario alla Difesa Albert Nimziki, il Presidente viene accompagnato in una base segreta dove opera il dottore Brakish Okun, uno strano ricercatore: il suo "reperto" (un super-aereo alieno) dimostra che altrove esistono tecnologie molto più avanzate di quelle terrestri. Si tenta un contatto diverso poiché Levinson ha proposto uno stratagemma: inserire un "virus" nell'astronave-base aliena. Se il virus entrerà in circuito, tutte le astronavi aliene perderanno il sistema protettivo. Il capitano Steve Hiller si offre di pilotare il super-aereo alieno per tentare di violare l'astronave-base con il "virus". Levinson ed Hiller partono mentre vengono reclutati altri piloti per sostituire quelli deceduti...

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice one... 22 Jan 2008
Format:Blu-ray
...for damning the film because of a technical issue. To the chap who gave the film 1 star, you realise everyone will see that, for some reason Independance Day has been rated a surprisingly low score? And you've done this because Amazon didn't tell you it wasn't US-player compatible? Grow up! Post your comments in the forums, and email Amazon. I'm all for the trade descriptions act, but putting people off the film because yours doesn't work?
To balance it out, I think the film is great, it's not the smartest of films, but who cares? It's from that era when everything WIll Smith touch turned to gold, with this, Men In Black and Wild WIld West. Ok, not Wild Wild West, but nevermind. A classic 'Hollywood Blockbuster', re-jigged in Shiny-Hi-Def-Vision (c), which ticks all the right boxes on the basic, bright colours and loud noises film checklist.

It's a Bluray. So the sound is great especially with a subwoofer on. The picture quality is fantastic and clear.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loud and Back With A Vengeance - Blu Ray Review 19 May 2013
Format:Blu-ray
Already have this on DVD, and like another review I was initially disappointed that it was the original cinema shorter version, no Special Edition here nor the option which is a bit strange when you can buy Close Encounters and get three versions on the disc. But then, you know what? It is the better version.

Like Stargate, ID4 was edited the way it was edited for cinema for a reason. The deleted scenes weren't really that good anyway. Having seen the film at the cinema on release the added scenes never really added anything.

One thing that is noticeable is that despite it's age, it has a really good picture quality. But over that, the knock out punch is the sound. This is a LOOOUDDD Blu Ray - and is really worth the upgrade from DVD for the sound alone.

The film? Yes, you can argue it's USA saves the world, but the fact is of all the 'alien invasion' films that there have been over the years, this one delivers. And yes, the US saves the world but the European director, Roland Emmerich, certainly spends a lot of screen time destroying most of the country in the process.

Almost 20 years on and ID Forever Part 1 AND 2 have been announced...............
