THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW is aces for this reviewer!!!
SPOILER ALERT !!
Ahoy, squirts. Quint here with a gushing review of Roland Emmerich's upcoming summer blockbuster disaster flick THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW. It sounds like Emmerich has made a movie with all the fun of ID4, but given it a new structure. I, for one, can't wait. This movie looks like bundles of fun! Enjoy, but beware of some spoilers below!!!
Hi Harry
Thought you might want another impression on Emmerich's latest
disaster epic "The Day After Tomorrow".
This isn't a review as my english is pretty poor and I don't claim to
be a reviewer. You might call me a plant (I'll accept that) cause I
wouldn't mind if my thoughts helped proppel this baby in to box office
heaven, cause if it gives Roland enough money too produce more like
what I just saw not long ago, I'll be a happy little rodent.
To the movie, minor spoilers ahead:
The intro sequence takes place on one of the polar capes and includes
a mile deep crack that breaks apart a piece of ice the size of Texas.
Unfortunately for a small group of scientists they have chosen to
place themselves right on top of this crack. This is the first glimpse
of what's to come effectswise later on in the movie. The cracking
sound that preceedes the actual opening is deafening and I can't wait
to see it in a bigger auditorium with better sound. The way the camera
goes higher and higher revealing the true size of the ice breaking is
simply stunning! Only one of the scientists make it out alive and his
info is what makes the alarm bells go off at Prof. Rabson's (Ian Holm)
office.
This info is taken to Dennis Quaid's character Jack (something) whos
quickly realizes that his worst nightmare has started and at a even
faster rate than he ever dreamed of. He can't get a hold of his son
and he finds it even harder to get the president's staff realize the
imminent threat. It's really played out a lot like the beginning of
Independance Day although this time it seems a bit more convincing.
One of the things I will critisize is that they jump to the actual
disaster too fast. All the stuff that is played out at the
Pentagon/white house is really exciting ad I wish we had more stuff
like this, more buildup, before the storm strikes. One of the big
arguments is whether or not the United States should invade parts of
Latin America in order to accomodate the vast number of US refugees.
There should have been a bit more focus on these areas. Also the
personal struggle of Dennis Quaids frustrating attempts to get a hold
of his son and him being ordered to stay in Washington as an advisor
could have been fleshed out a bit more. All the "small" stuff in this
movie really works well (surprisingly) I just feel there should have
been a bit more before the diasaster.
But enough of the "small" stuff, this movie is also about the "big"
stuff or should I say "the jawdroppingly gigantic shit" cause the hype
that has surrounded the effectswork in this movie truly lives up to
the finished product and well beyond.
I love watching landmarks getting smashed, crushed, exploded whatever,
and this film ups the ante in this area. I believe we get treated to
around 40-45 minutes of pure destruction intercut with small scenes of
personal survival. We have seen a lot in the trailers and yet we
haven't seen shit! Los Angeles is "attacked" by a shitload of small
and big tornadoes and just as we think it can't get any crazier they
all join together and form a superwedge several kilometers wide. In
one scene this tornado swallows a filled stadium after it has been
bombarded with debris in form of cars and trucks.
Before we move on to the destruction of N.Y. we a treated to a series
of worlwide disasters involving freezing, lightning (about a thousand
a second), Hails that destroys entire cities, blizzards etc.
Then it's time for N.Y. In the beginning Jack's son Sam (Jake
Gyllenhaal) is travelling to New York and he actually gets a taste of
the storm that will hit him in New York a few hours later. He is with
a couple of friends attending some seminar when the storm hits New
York. Again we are not given enough time before the disaster to set up
the characters.
The destruction and "freezing" of New York was one long case of
boosegumps for me personally. In the trailers we only see the tidal
waves from far away but the scenes in the movie when we see it from
the people's point of view are simply chilling. In one scene we have a
bunch of office employees who without warning have their entire
building engulfed in water. On their side the windows are still
holding up to the pressure and they watch terrified as bodies,cars,
horses, busses etc. float by. suddenly the windows collapse and they
too perish. There are many scenes like this and the visual effects are
so photorealistic.
After the storm settles, the movie shifts gear and turns into a tale
of personal surviaval and a fathers quest to find his son. The danger
is far from over though. Instafreezes that are very local but that
freeze anything down to abzolute zero and that causes entire
scyscrabers to fall, and wildlife like polar bears and wolfs keep our
heroes busy on their journey.
The acting is convincing and I like all the actors/actresses in this
movie, I'm not great at analyzing dialogue so I'll refrain from taht,
but the dialogue in this film worked on me, and I felt quite emotional
at times. But again, I'm a sucker for this kind of thing. What lacked
in small stuff and character development we get more of in the
post-disaster part of the flick and we don't get a fullblown
actionpacked ending, but I love it that way.
This movie compare very little to the rest of the disaster flicks I've
seen in recent years. Yopu realize pretty fast that there can be no
happy ending to this movie and we are spared of the
"mad-groups-of-scientists-racing-to-save-the-planet" plot that we saw
in Armageddon, Deep Impact, The Core, Independence day and you name
them. The race in this one is a father's race to find his son.
The drama works very well and the action/effects will stand up to
anything released this year in my opinion. All in all a
thought-provoking, no happy ending disasterflick.

I totally decided to see this movie, just because of the visual effects. You can't really watch in on tv, and get the same effects for this picture. You need a theater with an awesome sound system. If this reviewer is saying the truth, wow~ more icing on the cake!
-
Remember when TWISTER opened how good the sound was? Yes, the rest of the film wasnt art, but I do remember loving the sound! The 'crack' of the ice description in this review sold me. Can't wait. Oh, and well done for admitting to being a plant.....nicely done!
-
All these movies are so played out! Escapism is not a justification to watch these sad excuses for movies...Airport 78 anyone? Meteor? This shit and Armageddon, etc. is the same old same old, imho
-
I hear there's a few prominent politicians waiting for this movie to be released so they can announced the impending doom of our planet. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for explosions and destruction and folks getting killed. Hell, I watched 10.5 just to see if Papa Kent got killed. But I hate to tell you tree-huggers who are ready to proclaim this film as "What Will Be," that it won't be. No science is involved, and the instant freezing of NYC will not happen. Terrible shame, really, since there's a lot of people in the Big Apple who I'd like to see dead, but we gotta face facts. So I am shutting down political rhetoric right now. View this film as a chance to see explosions and shit getting destroyed. Nothing further.
-
Please say I'm not the only one tired of pointless effects overkill. Three tornados form a super-tornado? Yuck.
-
I read once in a scientific journal that instafreezing is possible for places whose warmth comes from certain flows and streams. For example, if the north polar icecaps were to go, the entire UK would lose the heat from the Gulf Stream and in the same day as the disruption, the country would be ravaged by the worst imaginable winter weather no matter what time of the year it was. So in theory, the NYC instafreeze is quite possible, but if it's not accurately depicted in the movie ... surprise suprise? There are no movies that are 100% realistic.

I will definitely see this as I grew up in the 70s watching stuff like POSEIDON ADVENTURE, EARTHQUAKE, TOWERING INFERNO. This looks pretty good. If only the upcoming remake of Wolfgang Peterson's produced POSEIDON ADVENTURE ends up this dramatic and lavish, I'll be a happy man. Here's my dream cast for the remake of POSEIDON: Russell Crowe or Kevin Spacey in the Hackman part; James Gandolfini in the Ernest Borgnine role; Kim Basinger as his wife, the Stella Stevens role; Willam H. Macy in the Red Buttons role; Scarlet Johansen in the Carol Lynley role; Martin Landau and Kathy Bates in the Jack Albertson, Ben Stiller in the Roddy McDowall part; Shelley Winters roles; and a cameo by either Gene Hackman (as the captain) or Norgan Freeman.

Why is everything in a disater flick the size of this state? Maybe it wouldn't sound as menacing as if they said "It's the size of Delware!" President [stifling laughter] "oooo I'm so scared of Delaware" Aid "Sir, it could still destroy all of Washing..." President "Whatever, where's that small rubber ball I like..." Meteor hits, John Kerry becomes president by running unopposed and Mallard Filmore, the republican comic strip about as funny as hemmrroids, manages to eek out another four years of life.

What? Already remaking "Deep Impact" after how many years? Gimme a break. LA and NY get trashed by Mother Nature. As this is probably meant to be some kind of major blockbuster that's gonna make some major boxoffice bucks worldwide, I bet people in them other countries are gonna be either glad that their cities aren't shown being trashed or pissed that the producers couldn't afford the money to do the effects to show at least one foreign city being trashed... Hope the cast isn't made up of TV actors, but what am I saying... not really planning on seeing this!

He's always trying to engulf the USA in some sort of disaster be it Giant UFO's or some over grown lizard or even large 'stargates' that allow crap tv shows to invade our airspace and ruin good tv slots. I for ne think the guy's a hero. There should be more movies about Americans getting sucked under cracks the size of Texas(?!) and drowned under 50 foot tidal waves everyday.It's almost like the planet is giving the USA the slap it needs after trying to "Americanise" it for so long,but hey thats just me.

They couldn't just go with the real science, could they?
by fluffyunbound
Look, if global warming happens the way its advocates claim that it will, it won't look anything like this movie. They need to have everything happen in a week, and they need tidal waves and instant ice ages and mile-wide tornadoes because without them, they don't have a movie. Without something that hits the US that hard, a movie about "real" global warming would show the US being essentially inconvenienced with changes in drought patterns that are quickly adjusted to, a few changes in seasonal availability of certain specialty food items, and some insurance losses for coastal propertyowners who built overconfidently. The rest of the world, particularly the 3rd World, would take it much worse than the US, and the Pentagon is probably rightly worried about the implications for global security - but you simply won't have the city of LA destroyed in a single night, or people running south across the Rio Grande. You'll have more boat people and sad pictures from Africa and the subcontinent and southeast Asia. And that's not a fun summer blockbuster, that's just the slow drip of 30 years of incremental news items. So they decided to go for an over the top approach, because that's the only way to make it bad enough to incapacitate the United States instantly and create the milieu for their "braving the wolves of New York City" plot line. [How are the wolves there in a week, by the way? Where did they come from? Why not have Mastadons show up, too? Or are people misidentifying fluffy feral dogs as wolves?]

Cant believe no on has yelled plant. wanting a movie to do well (as admitted to in paragraph 1) doesnt make you a plant. working for the studio as an intern and posting a good review to this site as an assignment from your bosses is what makes you a plant. And this is definitely that kind of plant. and thus I yell plant.

When an asteroid the size of Texas approaches the Earth, a team of experts meets in Texas and decides that only an atomic bomb the size of Texas can blow up the asteroid; the experts, screwing all the way to the asteroid, land there and plant the bomb on an iceberg the size of Texas. The asteroid blows up and only one huge fragment hits the Earth - but from within it emerges an angry, green, scaly lizard with prominent hemorrhoids in its ass crack the size of Rhode Island, and a penis the size of Texas.

Hey, hey, hey, hey!!! What the FUCK is this movie?! This is the EXACT kind of movie that Bin Laden would love. I see it as a kind of a gift for him and his gang of pals. Americans are so utterly dumb. How the fuck can you promote a movie that is about the destruction of America, when, some years ago you were already half fucked up?!? Can you hear Bin Laden laughing when he will see this movie?! NO?!? Then stop sucking small dicks and ban this piece of crap. Jee, movies about mass-destrcution. Riefenstahl was better.

I gots the boosegumps one time, it itched something fierce
by henry earl
Hello again my friends, it is me James Brown, drunk off my ass, and happy to be back here again. My friend came back to type for me at the library so I can talk too. But I am really here to say, don't laugh at the boosegumps, they is no laughing matter, they itched and burned, and my buddy Berl told me, he said, don't itch cause they will spread, well dammit cause he was right and I gots it all over my jumbly junk, goddammit!!! So fuck to anyone who says they aint' real, and if this poor sumbitch got them from this movie, either he had been getting head during the movie from a dirty hoe, like Wanda Moo that skank from 4th street, Fuck you woman! or else he is just plain dirty and wasn't wearing pants in the theater he was in and someone else had shit in that seat before him, like me! Ha hah ha, I shit once in a theater, I was so goddamm high, oh woops I has to go, bye now.
-
Frankly I hate it when people scream plant, it just gets so old. But I have to wonder if this wasn't some english butchered on purpose. Seriously boosegumps? You are trying to hard if you are attempting to sound like a foreigner, who knows I could be way off. On another note, does anyone get who Henry Earl is supposed to be? His joke is lost on me.
-
there you go

But anyone who reads the news has to come away feeling that there's a very good chance we're going to see a monstrous terrorist attack this summer. It practically goes without saying there will be some kind of incident at Athens (long a stewpot for terrorism), during the Olympics. Greece is -- apparently -- completely unprepared to do with staging the Olympics themselves, much less maintaining security (Hell, it's under 100 days 'till the Olympics, and they haven't even finished the buidlings yet). In the US, it seems inevitable something will happen over the summer or before the election. A dirty bomb? That seems to be a possibility. So I guess what I'm saying is, I just don't have the taste to see this kind of movie anymore. Not now. I don't want to see thousands of anonymous Americans die horribly and suddenly before my eyes. I've been there. I don't want to see our landmarks destroyed. I just don't. If I want to escape, I'll watch Return of the King or Hellboy or Collateral or something.

...and so, once again, our sociological lexicon takes a hit.

obvious plant - there's no way a movie could possibly be "a bit more convincing" than an asspot of aliens invading and blowing up landmarks and cities just before being derailed by a mac computer virus. i gotta call BS...
-
I am a sucker for severe destruction courtesy of Mother Nature. And Sela Ward? I am so fuckin there!
-
Disaster strikes at the end of Act 1; Acts 2 & 3 chronicle the struggle for survival in the aftermath. Not a bad way to go if the audience cares about your characters. I haven't seen the movie yet, but it looks better than a lot of the crap in the summer pipeline.
-
NOT a ringing endorsement. Independence Day should have been produced for television...it was that bad. Irwin Allen has a lot to answer for. Consequentially, the effects will be the only thing that's worth watching in this movie...all else will be POOP! Squirting torrential floods of putrid POOP!
-
Fox just went to him and told him to make one 110 minute movie featuring disaster movies of the last 8 years. It looks like bullshit, but the reviewer has his right to enjoy what he wishes. Doesn't mean that i'll agree with him though.

"Ban movies about mass-destruction?" What the hell does Bin Lad
by carson dyle
Kubrick made "Strangelove" at the height of the cold war. Should it have been banned? One thing great art and popular entertainment have in common is that they reflect the times we live in -- as well they should. Restriction of free speech is the last thing America needs right now (although if you're gonna start banning movies, I suppose a case could be made for "Van Helsing").
-
I got an idea, how 'bout fuck you! First of all, I agree, Bin Laden WILL be laughing at Americans when he sees this movie . . . wait, which cave is he gonna see it in, the AMC one or the Famous Players? It's entertainment, and saying it should be banned because it depicts United States destruction is retarded. Should they ban every movie in which an American is killed because it offends you? Get over it, strap yourself in and watch the fucking flick, dick in hand!

Underscore_only, you REALLY sound like you need a hug. You did not get my point. I am not saying that ANYTHING should be banned, with two exceptions: 1. Star Wars movies cause they are gay and Tolkien was however better, so, what's the point and 2. mass destruction movies in which there ARE survivors. No shite. This is my only complain about this movie. TOO MANY SURVIVORS! Which is undoubtelly gay and makes me feel sad and lonely. I want you to know that I do not have an empty soul. It will be really neat and kewl to see you all dead. Yes, I am 12 years old and I masturbate at Ophra.

Haven't posted for a while, but I just had to express my astonishment at no one having made a joke about Harry's arse having a crack the size of Texas. Film looks good, though I read in Empire that my beloved Albion gets it first and nastiest because we got all huffy over Emmerich's portrayal of us in the Patriot (hmm, a nation gets upset because a German accuses us of war crimes. Fancy that), but I don't think he was being wholly serious.

by salvatoregravano
From "mastos" and "odon". There are no "mastas" of any kind in it. Though, admittedly, Yank palaeontology may spell it differently - I might start giving a damn if I lived somewhere in the patch of land between Canada and Mexico. Since I don't, they may as well spell it "masturbont" if they want to.

Blatant abuse, personal attacks, OFF-TOPIC BS, cross-posting, blatant advertising, and hate speech are all fodder for deletion. In other words, being a jerkwad loser will get you banned.

by big dumb ape
Damn, I still want a refund on that one. The trailer and commericals all played up the tension of what it would be like if an atomic bomb was smuggled into the States and then ACTUALLY went off -- but then you get to the middle of the movie and if you blinked the whole effects sequence was over. Wow! Who can forget the amazing action of Ben Affleck's girlfriend getting blown back from her desk at the hospital as the windows break? Or a few cars on the rode tumbling? The entire bomb sequence WAS in the trailer and commercials. Talk about a total marketing CHEAT in terms of ripping you off. Not only did you NOT get to see a prolonged SFX showcase of "what" even a small bomb could still do to a major city, but after it goes off it's like nothing ever happened! It was a freakin' atomic bomb, but from the way the movie handles it you'd think a grenade went off. Hell, the end of the movie is that ridiculous scene of Ben and girlfriend sipping wine on a lawn across from the White House on a sunny day acting all lovey dovey and like nothing ever happened! So the BEST thing I hear about DAY AFTER TOMORROW is that it actually DOES show shit happening and then DOES show what the lasting repurcussions of those same things are...
-
Like Van Helsing did. Well, actually no, I enjoyed it. The movie in a whole was an entretaining popcorn flick. It was Richard Roxburgh who should be shot, stabbed, castrated, disembowled, and decapitated all the the same time. He fucked up the flick in ways I never thought possible.

has there been a worse script ever? great special effects though. really really bad acting. the cinema audience spent most of the time laughing. also yet again only the U.S. gets effected not rest of the world apart from Balmoral in scotland. this film sucks.

You obviously didn't see the movie. This review btw. comes from someone working with the company that put subtitles on this movie in Denmark!

I live in London but I'm a Scotsman and after seeing this I wanted to kill Hollywood. I don't want 100 per accuracy in a film, because quite simply you're never going to get i, but no Scotsman would ever, ever say god bless england!!!!!!!!!
Apart from that, it was pretty good for the first twenty minutes -
After watching that 10 minute preview on FOX tonight that is the first thing that came to mind. If the movie is like this preview, it is going to be craptacular.
Hope I'm wrong, I was looking forward to it. -

by kobain
I mean, I've been reading this site and the TB for years... and I have never read a positive review of a movie that wasn't taken as a studio plant in the TB, or a movie that wasn't pure crap... am I missing something? in all these years there hasn't been ANY movie worth of praise or TB consensus? is it impossible for a person to write a positive review of any film that for whatever reason he or she liked, and not be treated as a plant?
what gives?
I for one, am a sucker for big disaster movies played on a big screen with monster audio, so count me in..I'll see this sucker even if it gets a -10 in the rottentomatoes score :)
-
I'm fifteen years old and I saw the movie the other day. It was terrible--hardly any of the science was correct. I mean, don't get me wrong, I hate earth science, but just think about it...
The movie said that the cold air was as a result of the hurricane pushing down supercold air from the troposphere, when that's not true. Hurricanes push air up, so there really wouldn't have been a difference in the temperature, and certainly not the "instafreeze" bit the movie went on about.
Secondly... Any type of major climate change due to global warming would happen over a period of probably 100-200 years, not in the week the movie claimed. An the United States wouldn't be that affected, either--while the melting of the ice caps and the NAC stopping, it would cool down, but it certainly wouldn't cause hurricanes and crap.
Thirdly, when they were showing the radar of the hurricanes on the screen, the hurricanes were going clockwise, when they were in the northern hemisphere--hurricanes flow counterclockwise in the NH, and clockwise in the SH.
Um, this movie was pathetic. And where why hell were CGI wolves necessary to the plot? Throw me a frickin' bone...
Pardon the pun.
