We thought we were alone in the universe but today we find out we aren't!  On July 2nd they arrive! On July 3rd they strike!  On July 4th we fight back! As alien space craft arrive on Earth, one scientist realizes their communication beacon is in fact a countdown to destruction!  As the aliens strike by destroying major cities across the globe, a former fighter pilot President, a hot shot pilot, & and rag tag group of Americans fight back to save our  planet!  It's the ultimate popcorn flick as we look back at Roland Emmerich's 1996 classic, Independence Day!
