Editorial Review:
Description: When global warming triggers the onset of a new Ice Age, tornadoes flatten Los Angeles, a tidal wave engulfs New York City and the entire Northern Hemisphere begins to freeze solid. Now, climatologist Jack Hall (Dennis Quaid), his son Sam (Jake Gyllenhaal) and a small band of survivors must ride out the growing superstorm and stay alive in the face of an enemy more powerful and relentless than any they've ever encountered: Mother Nature!
Amazon.com: Supreme silliness doesn't stop The Day After Tomorrow from being lots of fun for connoisseurs of epic-scale disaster flicks. After the blockbuster profits of Independence Day and Godzilla, you can't blame director Roland Emmerich for using global warming as a politically correct excuse for destroying most of the northern hemisphere. Like most of Emmerich's films, this one emphasizes special effects over such lesser priorities as well-drawn characters and plausible plotting, and his dialogue (cowritten by Jeffrey Nachmanoff) is so laughably trite that it could be entirely eliminated without harming the movie. It's the spectacle that's important here, not the lame, recycled plot about father and son (Dennis Quaid, Jake Gyllenhaal) who endure an end-of-the-world scenario caused by the effects of global warming. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the awesome visions of tornado-ravaged Los Angeles, blizzards in New Delhi, Japan pummeled by grapefruit-sized hailstones, and Manhattan flooded by swelling oceans and then frozen by the onset of a modern ice age. It's all wildly impressive, and Emmerich obviously doesn't care if the science is flimsy, so why should you? --Jeff Shannon
Customer Reviews Average Rating:  Rating: - The day after tomorrow blu-ray The movie is a very entertaining Hollywood product, and the blu-ray version doesn't disappoint. Image quality is awesome, and the extras are worth the purchase. I'd recommend this product no problem...
Rating: - Great Story Line! I absolutely loved this movie!The plot was fantastic, and it was exciting to watch it unfold.The acting was the only thing that stopped me from giving it five stars, with a few of the actors giving subpar performances.
Overall, it was a very unique story and played out very well with the special effects and the political undertones.Definitely worth the money!
Have fun!
Rating: - Special Effects Rule the Day When the movie made its big-screen debut in 2004 - and continuing with the various DVD releases - debate oftentimes degenerated into questioning the actual validity of the global warming/cooling that is depicted, while seemingly forgetting that this is a Sci-Fi action adventure. It would be like giving opinions on The Da Vinci Code and One Million Years B.C. as if the films are based on historical facts.
Produced, directed and co-written by Roland Emmerich, the special effects are absolutely ... Read More
Rating: - Possibly the dumbest movie ever made Total eco-fraud terrorist propaganda. A prominent environmental expert says "This movie does for climate study what the movie Frankenstein did for heart transplant surgery. Totally unbelievable rubbish, a stupid plot (the part about where they rescue the kids from the library is just too stupid for words) with fairly poor and stilted acting gives it the true look and feel of propaganda. This is why stupid people think if you drive a new escalade you are going to kill the entire planet off, and you are an ... Read More
Rating: - A convenient half-truth I like to feel that I am balanced in my scorn of cod-science. For some reason, some people have taken offence to my review of "State of Fear", the Michael Crichton stinker. Ok, TDAT takes some pretty sound scientific principles and drives a bus through them to get a plot out of it. Lets be fair, no one is going to say "oh My God, I`m going to be crushed by that rapidly advancing glacier if I stay routed to this spot for the next couple of thousand years", so I can allow them their scientific whimsies for ...
