This box set dvd of INDEPENDENCE DAY is awesome and very beautiful!!! First, is the fact that this movie is one of my favs from R. Emmerich. (The Best is STARGATE). The box set comes complete with a 2 disc edition and a fold-out box made of heavy paper and cardboard. Similar to the 2 disc edition of PREDATOR. The artwork is fantastic!!! Pics of the alien ships, the alien (themself), and of the earth from the film's special effects. What makes this dvd different than the other copies of Independence Day, is the fact that it does NOT have a simple single disc, with the usual Amaray-type dvd box. BORING!!! -there must be like: 3, 4, or even 5 different types of the same kind of copy for this particular film on dvd; and they are ALL basically the same!!!! LAME!!! For those who are collector's, like myself, this box set dvd is a MUST have for ALL collections of sci-fi "fanatics"--like myself!!!! Lastly, there is a small collectable booklet inside with the production notes, and other fun facts about the film during it's time of "making." This booklet provides lots of useful info. that i learned about the film's direction(s), as well as the special effects and the many different shots used on location during the filming of this movie. Of course, it does contain the 2 diff. versions of the film: theatrical & Extended/director's cut, but then again--ALL of the diff. versions of this movie on dvd DOES too. The extended version is the ONLY version of this film that should ALWAYS be chosen to play when watching this film every time!!!! So, if you have one of the "other" dvd versions, i recommend storing that one, and upgrading to this box set immediately!! You WON'T regret buying it!!!! $Read full review
Highly recommended 2003 release of "Independence Day" in a North American DVD format. This sci-fi flick is funny, thought provoking, patriotic, exciting and almost everything else you can think of. It's about the earth being invaded by aliens in flying saucers but with many new twists. And - of course I totally believe a USMC Captain (Will Smith) instinctly knows how to fly a flying saucer! OK, not really but it did make the movie funny at the height of the drama. The movie was like that: the absurd being mixed with deadly serious and a touch of comedy. That's probably one of the reasons such a vast audience loved this film (including me). As with all films, parents of school age children should probably watch it first to verify it's OK. Please note that my reviews are made based on the product. At the time of writing, the seller is completely unknown.Read full review

Will Smith, Bill Pullman, Jeff Goldblum and Randy Quaid star in this 1996 sci-fi film. Aliens invade Earth until the people unite to fight back. This is a great sci-fi film with a good cast and cool effects. This 2-disc set has nice picture and sound plus neat extras. I recommend this.
Great movie------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
