Editorial Review:
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

The Day After Tomorrow [Region 2] Reviews:
Excellent movie!
2008-10-07 - Yahoo!! I love this movie! Like new. Many thanks to a great seller.

I won't say anything about the environmental message, but it is fun to watch
2008-09-27 - While I consider myself reasonably environmentally friendly, I never did pay much attention to all the political hulabaloo that surrounded this film. In fact, I never even bothered to see it until it came to DVD.

And I will happily say that this is a movie worth keeping around, assuming you are one of those people that love a good fluffy adventure every now and then. I know I do, and the wild special effects and insane plot twists are enough to keep me happy. Warning or not, it's fun, fairly mindless entertainment that just looks freaking cool.

global dumbing
2008-09-25 - Ronald Emmerich makes the kind of movies it would be better if we had a lot less of. INDEPENDENCE DAY, GODZILLA, THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW....Robert Emmerich = dumb, big, loud, silly entertainment for the masses during summer time. I wish Hollywood would get a little more ballsy and start moving away from their tired mega-budget summer blockbuster strategy and invest just a little more capital in different projects. They would learn there is money in making better movies. ANYWAY, THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW is absurd and unless Americans are as dumb as apparently talk radio hosts seem to think their listeners are, this film does not work very well as propaganda for environmentalists. Actually to the extent environmental activists are linked to wacky movies like this they are regarded as extremists and crazy by much of the public. Well that's my take. Right-wing radio would go outta business if they didn't have Hollywood to demonize and whine about all day long like victimized babies. Anyway, "liberal" Hollywood is mostly about money, not ideas --whether the ideas be artistic, scientific, or even political and that's clear enough with THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW. But I digress: THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW sucks because it takes itself too seriously. If it were somehow done with a wink and a nod we could be in on the joke but it's not. An absurd disaster popcorn flick might could work well if it recognized it's own utter preposterousness. This one is done as they all too often are with the pretense that this scenerio could realistically happen in the real world but obviously that's nonsense and we're supposed to what? Suspend disbelief? But I don't want to. We're not supposed to laugh at it and not supposed to take it too seriously, obviously. We are to enjoy the "eye candy" and dim plot and dialogue but I'm not going to just enjoy CGI storms and buildings falling apart because I've seen it before and I sure have experienced enough mediocre story telling in my day.

Gee, I don't know really. "It's just a movie" and so whatever.
