Independence Day: Resurgence is the film that would have been made if it was produced in 1997, only a year after the original took the world by storm.
The best thing that anyone can do is watch Independence Day again, as it could be assumed that most of the audience who saw Independence Day: Resurgence haven’t done so.
That’s a tall order to fill, but in some respects Independence Day: Resurgence gets to be a little darker than its predecessor.
But at the same time, it’s pretty much the sequel one should expect after finishing a triumphant viewing of Independence Day.
