Critic Reviews for The Day
All Critics (14) | Top Critics (7) | Fresh (4) | Rotten (10)
The film feels unbelievably long at 84 minutes, and the color-drained, hand-held cinematography serves only as a reminder of just how good "Night of the Living Dead" really was.
A savage B-movie thriller with unrealized aspirations to profundity ...
Every day is gloomy in "The Day," Douglas Aarniokoski's film with a creepy, paranoid atmosphere that's more effective than the performances.
Towards the end, you might find yourself thinking, "Well, this could have been worse." And you'll mean it as a compliment.
"The Day" is just good enough to engage audiences, but it falls well short of remarkable, leaving viewers wishing for a dawn that never breaks.
"The Day" cycles through bursts of horrific violence only to end much as it begins: static, hollow and vague.
Audience Reviews for The Day
with the darker look for the film it added a bit of old school feel to it. I enjoyed the movie and found it reminisces night of the living dead in a sense. a bit more dialogue heavy in parts that'll most likely throw people off but adds more back story to a few characters. the feel throughout makes the ending satisfying with the turn out. not a bad watch.

A bold and brutal instant classic. It`s one of the most shocking films of 2012. It gets in your head and under your skin quick with its gritty atmosphere, brutal nature and gripping characters. A bone-chilling, stylish, exhilarating and utterly breathtaking edge of your seat thriller. A well-crafted piece of work from Robert Rodriquez`s protege: Director, Doug Aarniokoski, who shows us he`s an exceptional talent and will have a bright future. The cast is beyond great, they have great chemistry and show no mercy. Shawn Ashmore is excellent. Michael Eklund is terrifyingly good. A knockout of an adrenaline-rush. It has echos of From Dusk till Dawn, Mad Max and The Book of Eli.
