Advantages: great film Disadvantages: slow story line
...Special effects are simply stunning, The story line is good and you can foolow along with it quite easily, It compares quite well to other film, for example the likes of 'Godzilla' and 'Indendence day' this film is right up there as it is simply amazing. It had me on the edge of my chair, and it made me think about the story line, as wether this could happen, .The opening could be called slow as it takes a while to get in to the thick of it, but ...

Advantages: good film and special effects Disadvantages: cheesy story line
the film was okay.
the special effects for the disasters werefantastic, like the tornados in LA.
i did think that the story line was very poor. i didnt really care about some teen in love, i was interested in seeing what global warming will do to the world, like cover england in snow.
i also thought the bit about people from developed countries having to go to third world countries was ironic, becasue they came to us for aid and we made them stay ... ...and go begging to the country's leader to ask if we can go there.
i think the film could have been made a lot better if the story line was different, there was nothing wrong with the effects of what happened i just think it could have ended better and had more to do with disasters than to flick between disaster and teen romance.
overall it was still quite good ...

The day after tomorrow is about the worlds climat changing and the birth of a new iceage.
Most of the story is about a father who is some kind of scientist that goes to New York to find his son whom together with his friends are about to die because i'ts just getting colder all the time. This movie could have been great because it has som great and realistic effects but unfortunately the movie is pretty boring. It is to much talk about things that ... ...interesting does happen then it usually is pretty good but it is not often that happens and thats a shame. It is also easy to get lost. However it is a good movie anyhow.
Don't pay for this one but go and see another movie instead. You should rent it on DVD or video later cause it is worth watching it at least once.
One thing that was nice was that it felt cold when I watched it and thats good. ...

Advantages: Stunning special effects Disadvantages: Obvious plot
...you feel too paranoid. The special effects are excellent, to the point that I felt like I was freezing while watching it. It's a film that will appeal to, not only the older teenager but also to the older generation. There are other films based on how our actions just now will provide horrible consequences for the human race in the future, but this one actually made sense to me. I found this to be one of those films that can keep your interest from ...

Advantages: Amazing Special effects Disadvantages: Seemed like bits were missing from the plot
...read some negative reviews about the apparent 'poor storyline' I was convinced the film was not going to live up to the hype. However, The action comes thick and fast right from the start and you find yourself having to physically close your mouth with your hand several times during the film. With awe-inspiring special effects it fulfills all expectations and if, like myself, you are more interested in talent spotting you will find that Jake Gyllenhall ... ...if it was too complicated the shock factor of the special effects would have been lost , but this was not the case. It is easy to follow without being dull for a moment however you are left wondering how much footage was left on the cutting room floor. I cant wait till it comes out on DVD, I think they've left alot of bits out especially for the 'extended vesion.' This genre of film usually appeals to all sorts of people and this one is no exception, ...

Advantages: Special effects are great Disadvantages: There arent any I dont think!
This is the best film I've seen in a long while. Its one of those natural disaster films but its different to all the rest. No-ones every thought of using global warming and tidal waves etc. Its sooo fab! The main characters are really good actors. The special effects are sooo cool! I absolutely loved this film I wanted to go see it again! I'll definitely be buying this film when it comes out on video/DVD. I recommend that when watching this film, ... ...like you are there in the film cos of the cold air! When I saw this at the cinema they put the air conditioning on full it was well good!

Advantages: incredable imagination Disadvantages: goes on for ages
...a thrilling movie whci shows the effects of what could happen because of global warming and the greenhouse effect. This film contains all types of disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes, floods and even the start of the next ice age. One man called Adrian Hall (Quaid) who studies old weather situations and he predicts what is going to happen because of the effects of global warming and the greenhouse effect but no one will listen to him. The awfulk ... ...is moving north to save the world and his son.
The extra CD is full of special features such as the special effects used to create such unbelievable scenes, and interviews with the cast and directors.
this film is so eye catchin, it makes you realise what will happen if people keep ignoring the greenhouse effect and global warming. I certainly dont litter or do anything to help these effects. ...

...disaster movie fans.
The effects are mind blowing and are great with surround sound and the sound can push you off your seats. The Plot is poor but that is to be excpeted by disaster movies. If there are any fans of twister or volcano out there you must see this film TODAY!!!
The story is all about a masssive climate change whcih is about the effect the whole world, but most of the action occuring in America (Typically) but what do you expect with ...

...gripping storyline and excellent effects. The storyline is quite believeable and makes you wonder what just might happen in the near future. The director has got the audience in the right frame of mind and felling all the weather changes throughout the movie. Most of the scenes or spine chilling and keep you on the end of your seat. I went to this movies with a few of my friends and we all came to the same conclusion, yeah it was a little predictiable ...

...let this movie down was the fact all the best bits were shown as clips in the trailers. The story line was a little hard to believe, but who knows maybe one day it may happen. Lets hope not, hey? The performaces by the characters were believable but what was with the wolves? I mean come on that was a little to far fetched. i was actually at the premiere in London for this, they had fake snow and the works. It was an ok movie. I dont think it was ...

His son being trapped in new york (suprise suprise whenever anything goes wrong with the world 9 times out of 10 its mainly new york) sorry. His son is trapped in new york and he relays to his dad about what to do to survive aswell as remembering what he said.

Anyway my opinion on this film is that, yes the effects were great and quite worrying as to what could happen in the future but the storyline was quite poor, i doubt many people would want to watch this more than once. ...

Advantages: Superb special effects Disadvantages: not a great storyline
This film started excellently. The special effects were truly amazing and I felt gripped and excited as the film went on. I found I was jumping and squirming in my seat without realising it! The wolf scenes were a little disappointing as it was obvious that the wolves were computer enhanced and the story was very far-fetched, although I do realise that it was a film for entertainment and not factual. I thought that the ending was very disappointing ...
