We always knew they were coming back. After Independence Day redefined the event movie genre, the next epic chapterdelivers global catastrophe on an unimaginable scale. 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.

“Utterly ridiculous but also rollicking good fun.” -Leslie Felperin -The Hollywood Reporter

“This scattershot but frequently spectacular sequel sees Roland Emmerich reclaiming his title as the DeMille of global destruction.” -Guy Lodge -Variety
