DVD Reviews of Independence Day (Five Star Collection)

DVD Review: Independence Day
Summary: 5 Stars

Great Movie. I have it in vhs and have always wanted it in Blu-Ray. It will look awesome.

DVD Review: Great movie Freedom will Live
Summary: 5 Stars

This was a great movie when I first saw it and now with what is going on in our country I think everyone should view it. It shows America is willing to fight for the right to be free. It is also humorous. Will Smith and Jeff Goldbloom do a great job.

DVD Review: About time
Summary: 5 Stars

I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS FOREVER!!!! Have you ever watched a movie and swear that there are scenes missing? It is soooo frustrating. Everytime I watched my Independence Day movie that was what would happen and then I found this edition and was like HA! Told you! This edition has a seperate edition in it that has extra footage/scenes. It is soooooo much better than the origional boring version! (well it's only boring compared to this but yeah) If you are going to invest in this movie then I urge you to get this version because it is 100xs better.

DVD Review: Independence Day (Movie DVD)
Summary: 5 Stars

Recieved order promptly, and was amazed that inside the movie was a small slip of paper that said, " Please leave feedback, if you have any problems please contact us..." I thought that was a great gesture that never really comes all that often. I know that feedback means a lot and you are so right, if I am happy I rarely leave feedback. The movie works wonderfully and I am very happy with my product, price and the professional service. I will continue to order from this company from now on.

Thanks

DVD Review: Junk food for the masses
Summary: 1 Stars

Let's examine the premise of this movie for a moment, shall we? Extraterrestrial craft have been visiting the earth for millennia. There were craft painted onto walls by prehistoric peoples. The nearest star is four light years away, meaning at the level of technology possessed by humans currently, it would take centuries at best for them to arrive here even from the NEAREST of an infinite number of stars in the universe. So, they must have craft that can considerably exceed the speed of light. If any civilization in possession of that kind of hugely advanced technology had wanted to destroy humans, it could easily have done so long ago. However, they have not.
No, dear people, the threat is not extraterrestrials. It is ourselves. Humans are doing a magnificent job of threatening the survival of humanity, thank you very much. Films like this, not to mention its upcoming sequel by another name, are nothing but a low-ball attempt to whip up a frenzy of militaristic paranoia so that people won't notice that they're being robbed blind every day by the same military-industrial complex portrayed as our great salvation in movies like this. In fact, I suspect that that same establishment had some major role in the making of this film.
Do you want to be horrified? Leave this film behind and look instead at what humans are doing to their habitat and to one another. THERE is the real shocker! Movies like this do nothing but dumb down the masses, who unfortunately seem to like being spoon-fed this kind of mindless, idiotic drivel.

Description of Independence Day (Five Star Collection)

In Independence Day, a scientist played by Jeff Goldblum once actually had a fistfight with a man (Bill Pullman) who is now president of the United States. That same president, late in the film, personally flies a jet fighter to deliver a payload of missiles against an attack by extraterrestrials. Independence Day is the kind of movie so giddy with its own outrageousness that one doesn't even blink at such howlers in the plot. Directed by Roland Emmerich, Independence Day is a pastiche of conventions from flying-saucer movies from the 1940s and 1950s, replete with icky monsters and bizarre coincidences that create convenient shortcuts in the story. (Such as the way the girlfriend of one of the film's heroes--played by Will Smith--just happens to run across the president's injured wife, who are then both rescued by Smith's character who somehow runs across them in alien-ravaged Los Angeles County.) The movie is just sheer fun, aided by a cast that knows how to balance the retro requirements of the genre with a more contemporary feel. --Tom Keogh
