However, the plot is flawed, and it is still a Hollywood blockbuster-style plot. All conflicts, plot advancements, and climax turns can be guessed and too lazy to guess. It can be said that the second part directly copied the first one, and even the plot is not as good as the first one.
Then talk about the highlights of the play. no. There are no bright spots. Isn't the sacrifice of the father (a tribute to the first part) not touching? Impressive. Isn't it touching to take care of a comatose gay friend for 20 years and finally die for him? Impressive. Isn't it touching that humanity is united against the ugly and evil alien invaders? Impressive. Isn't it touching to never betray the dog at the critical moment (tough tribute to the first part)? Impressive. But what, is there anything else? There may be, but I don't think it's a bright spot. Whether it is renovation or innovation, the key lies in the plot point, that is, the details. Obviously, this blockbuster doesn't get the details right.
In contrast to the first part, both the story line and the emotional line are properly arranged. The dissection of aliens in the laboratory is mixed with curiosity and fear, and finally ends with killing, which is a bit like "Alien"; Will Smith beats aliens, science fiction is not only a contest of high-tech weapons, but also hand-to-hand combat ;Using a computer virus to invade the alien spaceship to open the protective barrier, instead of breaking the barrier in the second part; the missile jammed, the father chose to sacrifice himself, the natural choice forced by the situation; the first human used his own Wisdom and bravery to defeat aliens, what the hell is that alien ball in the second part? Helping mankind to improve technology is to pave the way for the third part?
To sum up, it is unknown that the second part of Independence Day will make a comeback, and it should be known that the classics cannot be copied.
