Serious sci-fi never fantasizes about the possibility of a friendly alien civilization, always expecting the worst.
This 1996 film can be regarded as a kind of rehearsal of the director's heart. Even if he left a text on the moon saying "We are here on behalf of the friendship of all mankind", even if a good spacecraft was sent when the alien spacecraft came, the response was all attack and destroy.
In the end, the conflict is resolved by hard work and counterattack.
I appreciate the cool-headed development of the main storyline. The special effects of the disaster scene are also very well described, but the details are relatively general. Will Smith's exaggerated acting skills 24 years ago really make people want to complain, there are too many branch lines and even a little bit Far-fetched, American imperial heroes save the world, these are probably the inevitable age flaws of an old movie.
"Don't walk into the good night gently" should be the most frequently used sentence in the field of science fiction and the most representative of the attitude of the entire human civilization.
We will not go quietly into the night .
We will not vanish without a fight .
We're going to live on .
We're going to survive .
