Summary: Independence Day
Comment: Independence Day [Blu-ray] [1996] [US Import]
Why do Amazon keep sending out US Imports that will not load. I have tried a number of copies hoping they would solve the problem. The last copy again would not load even tried a Sony shop to see if it was my system that was wrong......

Summary: Important - please read
Comment: I already owned this film on DVD and loved it. I bought the Blue-ray edition to get even more out of such a great film. What Amazon don't tell u is that this edition is an edited version which in reality is 9 minutes shorter than my DVD version. My one star rating is purely based on another money spinning project....... no doubt in a year or so we'll get the Blue-ray Directors cut coming out. Unfortunately for me i couldn't return it as I never watched it as soon as it arrived.

Summary: Very Impressed...
Comment: Very impressed with this blu-ray transfer of Independence Day, the picture is crisp tho has some obvious signs of grain as the film is 12 years old now, but the sound really blew me away, particulary the scene when the mothership gets blown up at the end..unbelievable.. overall this is probably the best quality you will get for this film, a good purchase!

Summary: Audio good. Picture not up to Bluray standards
Comment: Just bought and viewed this release on BluRay (already own it on DVD). Was very disappointed with video quality on this disc unlike all the other BluRay's I own. Quite simply, it couldn't have been filmed in HD quality, and shows noticeable picture noise throughout (Panasonic PF9 65" 1080P 1:1 pixel mapping so can't get better picture chain quality).

Having said that, the Audio in Dolby DTS HD cetainly is better than the ordinary DVD version (again, through a high end home cinema system).

So... I give it only 3 stars because of the picture quality, and would warn people to be wary of old catalogue releases on BluRay
