25 years later and it’s still a great film!!!!

THE Best Alien-Attack Movie Of All-Time! All the new flicks like "Skyline", "Battle L.A." and $#!+ are nothing against Roland Emmerich's work. And it's from 1996 - imagine that... Anyway I'm really excited about Part 2 comming 2013. Happy Independence Day everybody ;)

I don't care how old you are you, if you grew up with it or not. This movie is a f----ing blast from beginning to end!

A goofy, yet exciting movie with a great cast. Definitely one of those movies that remind us why we go to the theater in the first place.

Certainly not a winner for dialogue and acting but with entertainment in the special effects department there's fun to be had. Is there an Area 51? A sobering thought. Brent Spiner makes this film! On the other hand the general who keeps saying 'My God!' is so so annoying
