Independence Day: Resurgence
We had twenty years to prepare. So did they.
Directed by Roland Emmerich
Produced by 20th Century Fox, TSG Entertainment
A high-octane alien invasion spectacle that trades introspection for scale, spectacle, and the reassurance that human ingenuity and global unity can overcome existential threat.
We always knew they were coming back. Using recovered alien technology, the nations of Earth have collaborated on an immense defense program to protect the planet. But nothing can prepare us for the aliens’ advanced and unprecedented force. Only the ingenuity of a few brave men and women can bring our world back from the brink of extinction.
