Reviews for The Day After Tomorrow
The next step is a movie that is all destruction and extras being bludgeoned, buried, drowned, frozen, or eaten by wolves without recourse to any pesky screenplay.

...a long-winded and loopy meteorology mishap. It’s too bad that this global gloom session couldn’t sweep away any sooner than its two-hour running time

Could have benefited from the presence of, say, Ralph Macchio, Kobe Bryant, Clay Aiken or Michael Jackson as a singing priest.

The first 20 minutes are painful, but what's a disaster movie without cliches?

Liberal? Hysterical? Preposterous? What's not to like?

It may not be a great movie, or even an outstanding disaster popcorn flick - but its heart is in the right place

The cast is able to literally outrun the destructive power of the cold, but they can’t survive the killing wave of contrivances and disaster cliches.

A torrent of clichés inundates audiences in this ecological-environmental disaster feature, which has as much scientific authenticity as an old Flash Gordon serial.
06/01/04
It fulfills its summer air-conditioning duties with flippant ease, and its enjoyably cloddish attempts at political relevance add a fascinating layer of incongruity.

The late Irwin Allen is beaming down from on high.

Where's Yukon Cornelius when you need him?

Un film absolument ridicule.

As for our friends to the north in Canada, "They're quite screwed," said the President. "Think of it as Mother Nature's 'thank you' for William Shatner."
05/31/04
More of a disaster as a film than entertaining or informative.
05/30/04
Gives new meaning to the phrase "disaster" movie.
05/30/04
The plot contrivances on display are so silly that the theme is hard to take seriously on any rational level.
