Reviews for The Day After Tomorrow
A pretty good disaster movie despite some silliness and lapses in logic.
05/30/04
You expect great spectacle, you don't expect smart dialogue and scientific believability. In that sense, the film doesn't disappoint.
05/29/04
Most of the movie is spent watching Jack Gyllenhaal shiver ominously next to Steve Urkel.

Besides being an exciting and suspenseful movie, 'The Day After Tomorrow' should be a wake-up call for us all.

A big, dumb movie, another Hollywood entertainment that, instead of tweaking and teasing our brains for fun, leaves us feeling thick and stupid.

Top CriticThis film is the worst that it can be.
05/29/04
The real star here is some excellent computer-generated effects that actually look real.

A popcorn movie that turns into an eat-your-vegetables movie.

Sua fragilidade narrativa pouco significa frente à boa causa que representa. Além disso, é sempre divertido ver (nas telas) ondas gigantes cobrindo uma metrópole, não é mesmo?

The only earthquake you'll feel is the natural sensurround of people snoring in their seats and then again as people run for the exits

[It] delivers Emmerich's two trademarks, spectacularly cool special-effects shots and hilariously overwrought disaster-movie dialogue.
05/28/04
It's the Weather Channel on steroids.

Top CriticThe Day After Tomorrow isn't just bad, it's Godzilla bad, on a par with Emmerich's previous cinematic low point.
05/28/04
Top CriticA lopsided mix of top-shelf spectacle and cut-rate casting.
05/28/04
It's just so very bad.
05/28/04
The Day After Tomorrow is less about serious issues and more about big-money special effects and shameless sentimentality.
05/28/04
The Day After Tomorrow isn't satisfying in every way, but in the ways that really matter, it's one superior disaster movie.
