Independence Day

Movie • 1996 • Action  

Report
On July 2, a giant alien mothership enters orbit around Earth and deploys several dozen saucer-shaped 'destroyer' spacecraft that quickly lay waste to major cities around the planet. On July 3, the United States conducts a coordinated counterattack that fails. On July 4, a plan is devised to gain access to the interior of the alien mothership in space, in order to plant a nuclear missile.

Several cities and landmarks (including the White House) are blown to kingdom come by an alien death cannon -- something that was a massive selling point in the film's marketing. Later in the film, the US military retaliate with their own nuclear strike that ultimately fails. SPOILER: The climax ends with a nuclear bomb being detonated within an alien mothership.
