jacqui c BS: What films do you rewatch? (87* d) RE: BS: What films do you rewatch? 27 Oct 03


Little Hawk

The send up in Independence Day of all the cliches from previous sci-fi movies is what makes it so good. 'Now that's what I call a close encounter' always makes me laugh. The whole thing is a comedy with some fairly good special effects. And it doesn't scream out 'parody' like Mars Attacks. If I had to choose a favourite of the three films you mentioned it would have to be Deep Impact which looks at the psychological and, to a degree, philosophical effect of a major disaster on people. I enjoy the action movies but love the ones that look at how people tick and that one did it for me.
