INDEPENDENCE DAY RESURGENCE: Director Roland Emmerich has become the master of blockbuster summer entertainment and this is another in his resume of nonsensical mayhem. This time out we are not destroying buildings as much as we are annihilating alien spacecraft. Will Smith declined to be involved in this sequel but many of the regulars are back including Jeff Goldblum, Bill Pullman, Judd Hirsch and Vivica A. Fox, This time we add in Liam Hemsworth, Sela Ward (as the President) and Jesse T. Usher (as the son of the Will Smith character) And while the acting is adequate, it is no match for the CGI effects in this hodgepodge of destruction. So if you like this sort of thing, you will enjoy this outing, although it is inferior to the original and a bit farfetched to say the least. Good aliens against bad aliens with us caught in the middle is a bit of a stretch to me.
