That’s a lot of money! I really liked the marketing for this movie and it shows that it was effective!
I personally found this movie to be enjoyable. Not an epic film at all but it was a fun watch.

In reply to Edvin. cool. It seems like a lot of people actually enjoyed this movie. I thought it looks kind of silly but I'll have to check it out... John Cusack made me not discredit it entirely hehe.

I loved this movie! Great fun escapist entertainment! Finally, a disaster movie with no heavy handed underlying message… just a great way to get away from the depressing realities of the fast declining state of the world.

I went with my husband and his sister. I honestly had no idea it was three hours long because time felt it went so fast. My husband didn’t like it, though I did. He wanted more destruction and less romance. I mean it has two leading romance stories, which really didn’t have to have happened at all. You could have deleted the one with the prez’s daughter complete and no one would have missed it. Some of the deaths were completely stupid. Just nonsensical and just to kill the person off. Spoiler: I agree that I would have liked to have seen all the Chinese workers get on there and maybe they did, but the focus was on the rich snobs trying to board ship instead. The Hope story was just a silly moment where a selfish man takes charge and they have to have a moment… Why the hell didn’t the Chinese president try to save his people? Why is it always one of the cute main characters that have the moment of truth. I liked it, don’t get me wrong. I spent half the time mumbling, “Oh my god.” It was intense, visually beautiful, but like any movie… it could have been stronger.

In reply to bernardg. He didn't blow up Mecca because he didn't want to upset the Muslims, I read an article on that. They were afraid it would start something nasty like those riots in Denmark that happened because some artists did a cartoon portrayal of Mohammad. He's smart and realized that it wouldn't have been worth it. He actually wanted to, but realized how stupidly crazy it could get.

This movie does not live up to my expectation, the CG was awesome. Apart from that, the story was bored. Independence Day still rocks.
