Re-spun plot of the 1996 movie riddled with every cliche seen in movies since 1945. Sort of updated for 2016 political correctness standards though they still use stereotypes where they can get away with it such as the mad scientist imagery. Earth has apparently benefited from the spoils of the 1996 alien war to upgrade technology, though they still use a lot of fossil fuel engines in consumer motors ("Out of gas!") while the military got anti-gravity upgrades. A long laundry list of plot holes, plus frequent occurrences of somebody doing something completely stupid in obedience to antiquated values. Also requires not only slight suspension of disbelief but suspension of just about anything you have learned about science since grade one. I presume any succeeding movie will be set purely off-planet since there is no way the Earth will return to being habitable after this one.
