Independence Daysaster (2013 TV Movie)
5/10
Cast of Seven Saves The World From Alien Rototillers With Titan Missiles And Roman Candles!
4 July 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Wow, what a spectacular movie. Held me in breathless suspense for two hours. I was hoping, hoping, hoping that Andrea Brooks would end up using her shirt as a tourniquet. Almost, but not quite! But seriously, I just finished watching this on Independence Day 2019, and found it to be a decent enough action movie that only borrowed extensively from a few dozen other movies. The yo-yo like devices that act as weapons of destruction were too similar to the same-type things in Battleship, while the whole "Hackers Save The World" vibe has been done a few times already. And every action scene looked like a youtube video done by teenagers with CGI from Atari. And the missiles used to destroy the mother ship look like the ones we had as civil defense in the 1960's. At least the President's "Happy Fourth of July" speech at the end was not terribly reminiscent from the namesake source blockbuster. Oh well.
