    We know how this one will go without even watching it...

    Asylum production had their ridiculously untalented hands in this one, so there's really no need to review it at all, am I right? They should never be allowed to make films, and the whole world knows it. How they get any funding is beyond me. Everything they have ever touched has turned to junk. Just a travesty of a movie making entity, they are. Sadly, this movie didn't have a chance. It was a piece of crap the very second it was in the hands of Asylum. They routinely cast people right off the street, wardrobe is always just plain tragic, special effects....I can't even call them special effects....just no. Someone needs to put an end to Asylum....soon.

    True Rating -1

    This is awful was on for a full 15 minutes and about 10 of them was spent with me looking for my laptop to rates this 1 though it does not deserve one.

    The Asylum keep making these awful movies. If this was a spoof version of Independence Day it would probably be worth a watch.

    However its just a cheap imitation with basic CGI that looks as bad as the acting.

    Even SyFy Channel don't do things this bad.

    I should know by now anything attached to the Asylum needs to be binned without viewing.

    Oh good grief

    I really am struggling to find the words to describe JUST how bad this movie is. Poor CGI. TERRIBLE acting. Obviously a rip off story... Poor narrative that doesn't come close to the original movie which wasn't exactly poetry in motion itself.

    It's just impossible to understand why they can get away with pumping out this nonsense. Or how even struggling actors get involved in such nonsense.. although I guess sometimes you have to do what you have to do.... but oh dear god... the humiliation.... !!

    Truly awful... avoid at all costs.

    I didn't and now I have the scars to show for it.

    Sh*t sandwich

    Potentially the worst movie since fatal deviation. Not connected in any way to the original. I watched this on a plane while killing time and twice thought of parachuting to safety. Showing this movie to ISIS would end the war in the middle east immediately. Acting and plot are amongst the worst you will see with by far the best performance being put in by the extras who can be seen laughing to themselves in many scenes, which almost had the effect of convincing me that this might be some kind of spoof but alas that was not to be. This one is strictly for BitTorrent as to reward this type of effort would make us as bad as the North Koreans.

    Do Not Bother!

    I shall be brief! This has to be one of the worst, if not the worst, film I have seen! The acting is........well I am giving it a complement by crediting it as acting.....terrible! Where do these 'actors' come from? The script is pretty dire which doesn't help the actor's cause, but even so the finished product must have had the "ok we've got a shot there" by someone! I just wonder how many 'takes' it took to get something so bad! It might be quite amusing actually to see a DVD of the 'out-takes'. A complete waste of time! Do not even think that it is the sequel to Independence Day, it is nowhere near the quality of that movie. Awful! Awful! Awful!
