Although 10,000 BC was a financial success at the box office, it was critically panned for a complete disregard for historical accuracy, not to mention basic logic and coherent storytelling. The prehistoric era epic stars Steven Strait as a woolly mammoth hunter who inadvertently becomes the leader of his tribe and discovers an advanced civilizatio...
Those hoping Moonfall might redeem Roland Emmerich after a series of recent critical failures are likely to be disappointed. The plot of his latest disaster epic combines two of Emmerich’s favorite story elements: an alien invasion narrative and a series of CG-heavy destruction sequences. Unfortunately, it is a poor example of each, muddling the st...
Even Bill Pullman and Jeff Goldblum returning to reprise their roles was not enough to save Independence Day: Resurgence, a sequel that took 20 years to get made. The film’s failures start with the silly screenplay, which begins with an idealized vision of the future in which every nation on Earth has been at peace since the first alien attacks. In...
For years Emmerich discussed the possibility of making a more personal film, but his decision to tackle the 1969 Stonewall riots was quickly met with skepticism from those familiar with his body of work. Although Stonewall is primarily a coming-of-age narrative for protagonist Danny Winters (Jeremy Irvine), a gay teenager from Indiana who travels t...
Despite only being released theatrically in Germany, Emmerich made Moon 44 in English with hopes that it would provide new opportunities in filmmaking. This low-budget sci-fi action film has a nonsensical and overstuffed storyline involving an undercover cop, convicts being used as cheap labor to mine resources from a moon, and an android threat, b...
Godzilla has been successfully revived in recent years, both with new Toho Studio installments and in Legendary's MonsterVerse, and Emmerich’s disastrous adaptation is partially responsible. Toho hated the 1998 Godzilla movie so much that they decided to make Godzilla 2000 as a result, spawning the Millennium series. While Emmerich’s film is not fa...
Released as Hollywood-Monster in Germany before being retitled for American audiences, Ghost Chase is a campy horror-comedy that pays homage to the B-films from past decades. When teenager and aspiring director Fred (Tim McDaniel) discovers his leading actor Warren (Jason Lively) is the beneficiary of an old clock containing the spirit of his grand...
Another German theatrical release, Making Contact is a Poltergeist rip-off with plenty of practical effects. Originally titled Joey, the film follows a young boy (Joshua Morell) who believes he can speak with his deceased father through a toy telephone. At the same time, the child is terrorized by a possessed ventriloquist dummy and develops teleki...
Although 2012 is Roland Emmerich’s second-highest-grossing film, the bloated disaster epic failed to offer anything he hadn’t done better in previous releases. Capitalizing on the Mayan calendar's prediction of the 2012 apocalypse, the film launched a successful marketing campaign while neglecting to create a screenplay with relatable characters. T...
Despite his tendency to alter events to better suit the narrative, Emmerich showed a surprising dedication to historical accuracy in making Midway. The war film is based on the Battle of Midway in the Pacific Theater, told from the American perspective but with an effort to depict the Japanese side of the conflict as well. Though historical accurac...
