I watched this film a number of times over the years.And it's okay although for me it is "too American".One of the best parts of the film is for me the speech Bill-the president-does before they go to attack the aliens.It still gives me goose-bumps even if that perhaps is the moment in the film where it is the all american save the planet bit.But I love his voice there

Also the moment when he is in the hospital with his daughter and his wife dies.Very well acted by all 3 actors!
What is your fave part in the film?
