Product Description

Will Smith, Bill Pullman and Jeff Goldblum are the stars of Independence Day in a grand, high-tech throwback to such films of the 1950s as War of the Worlds as they deal with aliens, in numerous gargantuan spaceships, which arrive without warning and hover over the world's most important cities, creating global panic. The nasty visitors use death rays to blow New York, Washington D. C, and Los Angeles to smithereens. A handful of plucky Americans, including the Clinton-esque President (Bill Pullman), a gung-ho fighter pilot (Will Smith) and a computer geek named David (Jeff Goldblum), attempt to devise a strategy against the invaders. On July 4th, their risky plan is put into effect, as dozens of fighter pilots (including the President) wage an assault on the spaceships.

Ok some really over the top overacting, with the key actors, but great cast with the side categories - love Randy Quaid, Brent Spiner, Judd Hirsh, etc. and Harry Connick Jr (he is an incredible actor - go watch Copycat). Mary McDonnell and Vivica A. Fox gave so much better performances than the overall male cast who overcharacterized to extremses (exceptions noted above) - if everyone had kept that one, you'd forget it was a movie and enjoy it more. I am totally willing to concede the writers and directors may have contributed so some of this overacting - especially the excessive use of cute military phrases to incite the troops.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Nostalgic Sci-Fi Extravaganza: Revisiting "Independence Day" in its Extended Version
Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2023
Verified Purchase
The 1996 blockbuster "Independence Day" remains a touchstone of '90s action sci-fi cinema. With its mix of big explosions, charismatic performances, and patriotism, it captivated audiences worldwide. The Special Edition Extended Version offers an opportunity to revisit this classic with additional footage and a sense of nostalgia. Here's my detailed review:

Story & Screenplay:
The core premise remains the same—alien invaders threaten Earth, and humanity must unite to fend off extinction. The extended scenes offer added nuance and backstory, particularly involving secondary characters, but don't drastically alter the main plot. While some might argue that the story lacks depth, the straightforward narrative serves the film well, offering a vehicle for action and spectacle.

Performances:
Will Smith's charisma and Bill Pullman's presidential gravitas stand out just as they did over two decades ago. Jeff Goldblum's quirky genius role and the ensemble cast further enrich the story. The characters, while occasionally bordering on archetypal, are endearing enough to keep us invested.

Visual Effects:
For a film released in the mid-'90s, the visual effects have held up remarkably well. The destruction of iconic landmarks still sends shivers down the spine. While not as slick as modern CGI, the practical effects add a tangible quality often missing in today's digital-heavy productions.

Pacing & Additional Footage:
The original film was well-paced for an action movie, and the extended version risks disrupting that balance. While the added scenes contribute to character development, they may slow down the pacing for some viewers.

Nostalgia & Cultural Impact:
Part of the joy of watching the Special Edition Extended Version is the wave of '90s nostalgia that accompanies it. While some elements may feel dated, the film's cultural impact and the sheer enjoyment it offers make it a worthwhile rewatch.

My Opinion:
In my view, "Independence Day: Special Edition Extended Version" successfully recaptures the magic of the original while offering a deeper dive into its world. Though not every added scene feels necessary, the essence of what made "Independence Day" a hit remains intact. The film still delivers on action, spectacle, and heart.

Would I recommend this version? To fans of the original, absolutely. The additional content provides a fresh lens through which to experience a beloved classic. For newcomers, the extended version serves as a comprehensive introduction to a film that defined its era.

In summary, the "Independence Day: Special Edition Extended Version" stands as both a nostalgic journey and an enduring piece of action sci-fi cinema. It may not break new ground, but it offers a satisfying and entertaining trip down memory lane.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excelente remasterización en 4K
Reviewed in Mexico on April 16, 2023
Verified Purchase
Si ya has visto esta película en Blu Ray sabrás la alta calidad de imagen que la película ofrece en ese formato por lo que surgen dudas si vale la pena o no comprarla en 4K. La respuesta a la pregunta es: Sí, lo vale.

Esta remasterización eleva el nivel de detalles de la película ofreciendo una imagen clara, sin presencia de defectos o compresión ni una evidente reducción de ruido, de hecho la imagen conserva el ruido digital el cuál luce bastante orgánico en la imagen.

El HDR es conservador pero destaca donde tiene que hacerlo, mostrando unos colores puros, sin saturar, muy naturales y unos detalles en piel, rostro, ropa, objetos, etc., sobre todo en tomas de cerca. Es de esas veces en las que ves una película que ya has visto muchas veces pero tienes la sensación de estar viéndola por primera vez porque parece algo nuevo y distinto por su calidad.
