Pros: Visuals, Scenes and Sound effects. Cons: Slightly too long
Introduction I usually hate disaster movies - too much pain and cries in them. But, when the nature showed its destructive prowess with the Tsunami that destroyed South East Asia. I decided to check out, Day After Tomorrow, which I was told ...

Pros: awesome special effects, a few character moments, music, story Cons: duration, dialogue, emotion
No one can make a disaster movie better than Roland Emmerich. The special effects in his films are stunning. It’s also remarkable how he can interweave different character storylines during cataclysmic events (see “Independence Day” and “Godzilla”). We ...

Pros: Nice special effects, and Jake Gyllenhaal, though even he struggles here. Cons: The rest of the cast is terrible, and the screenplay is even worse.
Roland Emmerich has yet to prove much to Hollywood or the whole of the moviegoing community except for that the man likes his violence and can blow up a heck of a lot of stuff without cohering to any sort of logical storyline or fleshed-out cannon ...

Pros: Delightfully cheesy special effects Cons: Too much confusion, too much syrup
Jack Hall (Dennis Quaid) wants the government to know that based on prior climatic patterns, we're due for global warming then refreezing. When? Maybe in 100 years, maybe in 1,000 years. It's difficult to tell. Well, the warmup/refreeze happens NOW. ...

Pros: Sela ward is the best actor here. Some good special effects. Cons: Weak screen play, flat acting, way too
far from reality. Just plain dumb!
I'm not known for long movie reviews and this one doesn't deserve one. Now I know, some folks will really love this film and that's fine. One of my good friend's son thinks this is one awesome film. Well that's great, too. There's nothing better than ...

Pros: Just fun and exciting to watch all way through Cons: Predictable (SOME-times)
Why did I want to see this movie? I am an adrenaline junkie when it comes to movies. Give me all the action and disaster films Hollywood can dish out and I'll see it. So you can probably guess that I was jumping off the walls when I heard of this ...

Pros: Special effects, environmentalist friendly (has a message.) Cons: Too much happening all at once. Made my head spin. Environmentalist friendly.
I'm not going to bog you down with actor’s names and the impact they have in movies like this. Maybe once in a blue moon (two full moons in one month if you really needed to know) does a super performance come out of movies like these? The problem is ...

Pros: Sela Ward (Dr.Hall) was AMAZING! She was beautiful and the best actress! Special effects excellent. Cons: Kinda corny at some parts, (says why above)
The Day After Tomorrow has received terrible reviews. I loved it believe it or not! I love weather and I think it's just so interesting and the special effects were amazing. This movie truly shows how delicate our environment is and how stupid the ...

Pros: Great stunning effects, science and intensity Cons: Cheezy romantic moments and stuffy-headed politicians
You want to learn the basics of climatology, oceanography and environmental sciences -- you might want to take a crash course by watching this movie. The Day After Tomorrow is based on the many of today's facts and opinions ...

Pros: Good cast, great special effects, plot good in parts, entertaining. Cons: Ending a let down, corny at times, a little predictable towards the end.
As with so many other Sci Fi come Futuristic films, The Day After Tomorrow starts full of promise. However, eventually it becomes predictable and has a somewhat corny end. The film starts in the polar regions of the world with Dennis Quaid, who plays a ...

Pros: Special effects Cons: Lags frequently, bad performances from some actors. Implausible plot.
Wow, I can't believe I stayed up to watch this movie on HBO. It's such a disappointment. The only thing that is worth seeing in this movie is the special effects, that is, the effects for tornadoes -- the snowstorm special effects are typical fake ...

Pros: Fantastic special effects Cons: Implausible plot; cheesy dialogue
Those seeking intellectual enlightenment or a realistic disaster film are probably better off skipping Roland Emmerich's "The Day After Tomorrow." The story's premise focuses on a major shift in the earth's climate, triggering a new ice age. The new ...

Pros: Jake Gyllenhaal and Dennis Quaid were great. Cons: None.
I went to see this movie two nights ago and it was great. I like this movie very much. When this movie was first previewed, I thought this is a movie I would definitely like and I do. This is a movie that will definitely make it big at the box ...

Pros: Overall great visual effects, good musical score. Cons: Characters lack depth, story is a bit weak, some poor special effects.
As with any disaster flick, I wondered if I was just shelling out cash to see the last in theatrical special effects or if there would be a good story to go along with the action. Admittedly, I was drawn to The Day After Tomorrow because of Jake ...

Pros: Overall very entertaining especially the special effects. Cons: Weak storyline
I read reviews for The Day After Tommorrow and got a very mixed review. Unlike Troy and Shrek 2, I had a hard time deciding whether or not to see The Day After Tommorrow. After probably a few hours after reading the reviews, I decided to invest six ...
