Synopsis

Director Roland Emmerich was clearly influenced by sci-fi films ranging from War of the Worlds to Aliens, but no matter: this big-budget movie works on its own terms, as a fast-paced futuristic thriller with state-of-the-art CGI. Huge metal spaceships hover over the world but its inhabitants aren't friendly, ET-style aliens - they've come to wipe out the human race. So jet pilot Will Smith, computer genius Jeff Goldblum and US President Bill Pullman have to save the day.

What our educators say

"It really is a chance for us to open children's minds to the power of film not just as a vehicle for entertainment but also as a way in to understanding their own world and the worlds of people whose lives are very different."

- Marlon Perkins, Teacher, Whitstable and Seasalter Endowed CofE Junior School, Kent
