Independence Day (1996)

In many ways, Independence Day embodies the action/sci-fi films of the ’90s. Heavy on the action and special effects and not all that concerned with cerebral ideas or science. There are some clear flaws. I’d even call the film clichéd and predictable at times. All that's painted over with a nice, thick coat of watchability. If being entertaining isn't the most important quality in a film, I don't know what is.

On July 2, 1996, the sun above every major city on Earth is blotted out by enormous flying saucers. When the aliens attack, it’s time for Earth to fight back! The film follows an ensemble of characters: U.S. President Thomas Whitmore (Bill Pullman), computer expert David Levinson (Jeff Goldblum), U.S. Marine Corps Captain Steven Hiller (Will Smith), and among others, Randy Quad as Russell, an alcoholic crop duster and Vietnam veteran who seeks to give the aliens that supposedly abducted him years ago a piece of his mind. United together on the 4th of July, humanity prepares for a last-ditch assault against the extraterrestrial menace.

If you like War of the Worlds, but you think the ending is stupid, you're wrong but instead of arguing, let's agree that Independence Day delivers when it comes to the entertainment. This picture is essentially a less cerebral version of the H.G. Wells story combined with Earth vs. the Flying Saucers. That’s not a bad thing. This film’s got some modest goals, and it achieves them. Director Roland Emmerich wants to show humanity banding together against the ultimate threat via eye-popping special effects. The grandiose epic is told through a bunch of charismatic characters while hitting your emotional buttons via a bunch of “regular” people with “regular” problems. This film’s got so many things going on, it’s impossible not to find a character or situation to like/relate to.

Whenever anyone criticizes Independence Day, it’s always for the same reasons. No one believes that a critical plot point in the film, an instance where human and alien computers are compatible, is remotely plausible. There’s not even an attempt to give a reason why it would work like a revelation that all our computer technology is derived from this alien wreckage or anything like that. Why does it work anyway? Because of the emotional tone of the film. You believe it because it remains true to its spirit the whole time.

I’ll give you that there are too many sub-plots, but they’re all fun to see play out. Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum make a heck of a team. They’re both incredibly charismatic and together, they push you past the flaws and compel you to stand up and cheer. Cutting out any of the other stories would take away some of the feel-good sentiment used to contrast the devastation caused by the alien attacks. The moments of levity through comic relief and the wide range of stories make you feel like the whole world is united, ready to take up arms even if we briefly see what's going on outside of the U.S.A. The endlessly quotable and cheesy speech by President Thomas Whitmore says it all. It perfectly encompasses how the film makes you feel.

When you take into consideration how many times you’ll be blown away by the breathtaking sequences of destruction, our earlier critiques feel like nitpicks. Don’t care for razzle-dazzle? How about memorable quotes by charismatic actors, feel-good moments of selfless heroism, and genuine excitement as mankind face one of its deadliest foes yet? There’s something inherently watchable about Independence Day. It effortlessly draws you back to it, drawing you back so you can memorize the best moments and cheer at the right spots. On the 4th of July, with friends who are ready to have a great time, it sure hits the spot. (On Blu-ray, July 13, 2016)

Christmas Vacation (1989)… The stairs in the movie. The house not a residential home. But a set on the Warner Bros. Ranch Facilities. #screenshot from the movie and #googlemaps John Bernardin (2016). The area has been used in a lot of #film and #tv. It’s hard to believe that the #griswold family were neighbors to Roger Murtaugh (Lethal Weapon 1987). #chevychase #beverlydangelo #randyquaid #christmasvacation #nationallampoonschristmasvacation #nationallampoon #christmas #christmasmovie #christmasmovies #merrychristmas #80s #80smovie #80smovies #80saction #80scomedy #the80s #movielocations #movielocation #filmscout #filmscouting #locationscouting #locationscout https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl_lVbipZ-v/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Home on the Range (2004)

People still talk about Lilo & Stitch. Sometimes you even hear some discuss the merits of Brother Bear. No one talks about Home on the Range. Was the second-last theatrically-released Disney Animated really THAT bad? No. I’d even recommend it for young audiences. Just know that for everyone else, it's mostly unremarkable.

When their farm is threatened with foreclosure, cows Maggie (voiced by Roseanne Barr), Grace (Jennifer Tilly), and Mrs. Calloway (Judi Dench) make it their mission to come up with the money by capturing wanted outlaw Alameda Slim (Randy Quaid).

Bits and pieces of the 45th Disney animated feature film are likable. The main characters, for instance. Jennifer Tilly is consistently funny as Grace. Having a trio of cows in this western adventure is a nice departure from the stories we're accustomed to from the studio. The visuals aren't revolutionary, but there are a couple of well-drawn scenes, with a noteworthy one that recalls the "Pink Elephants on Parade" insanity of Dumbo. It's the highlight and with the way it plays out, Home on the Range might be worth seeing - once - just for that sequence. There are also a couple of nice sight gags here and there, including some pretty good ones with the villain.

All that said, this is not a particularly strong picture. It contains many dated or odd elements. The story isn’t fresh. You can't quite put your finger on it. There’s something about Home on the Range, its character designs, the peg-legged rabbit Lucky Jack (Charles Haid), and the selfish horse, Buck (Cuba Gooding, Jr.) that doesn’t pop.

The obvious flaws include the abundance of "generic animated jokes”. I’m talking about characters given silly quirk that don’t really make any sense and do not deepen them or make them more interesting in any way. A perfect example is Buck. Why does he know Kung Fu? For no reason except to have a bunch of silly scenes for the kiddies where he jumps around screaming Hi-yah! The film is made for children, yes. That’s the problem. Children is the only audience this will appeal to. Adults Can still watch Snow White, Fantasia, Aladdin or Beauty and the Beast and never feel like they're stuck babysitting someone. Why can’t Home on the Range, be on the same level?

I wouldn’t have even guessed that this was a Disney movie if it hadn’t known going in. Home on the Range doesn’t contain that magic. It’s a child-friendly animated movie about some funny talking farm animals, that’s it. I was initially going to collect every single Disney animated film, but after seeing Treasure Planet - it's just ok - and then this one, I think I’ll just stick with the ones that have truly stood the test of time. I still don’t think Home on the Range is all that bad. I’m even going to give it a mild recommendation because it’s watchable, even enjoyable if you’re in the right mood. It just isn’t very strong overall. (On DVD, February 16, 2015)
