Have you seen the tv adverts for the film where they advertise it as 'one of the greatest sci-fi films ever made' and 'action packed'

Action packed, I can't remember there being much action

I don't call a few buildings being blown up much action. Like most of these quotes they use, they obviously haven't used the entire quote so here are the quotes in full:
'If this film had a better storyline, better special effects and a better ending, it might possibly rate as one of the greatest sci-fi films ever made'.
'I was expecting it to be more action packed, instead it wasn't and I almost fell asleep watching it'.
Believe me, these are real quotes but unfortunately I threw out the magazines at the weekend and today is the day that the dustmen come. Damn
When I watched the film it wasn't at the cinema

so I saw it on the small screen so I was not seduced by the big picture & sound and perhaps that is why I felt the film was extremely poor. I say this because I remember thinking that Independence Day was really good when I saw it at the cinema but when I watched on TV I realised that it wasn't that good.
