- As Paleoclimatologist named Jack Hall is in Antartica, he discovers that a huge ice sheet has sheared off. But what he does not know is that this event will trigger a massive climate shift that will affect the world population. Meanwhile, his son Sam is with friends in New York to attend an event. There they discover that it has been raining non-stop for the past 3 days, and after a series of weather-related disasters begin to occur over the world, everybody realizes the world is entering a new Ice Age and the world population begins trying to evacuate to the warmer climates of the south. Jack makes a daring attempt to rescue his son and his friends who are stuck in New York and who have managed to survive not only a massive wave but also freezing cold temperatures that could possibly kill them.
- In a dangerous part of time, climatologist jack hall figures out a terror in climate change. It kicks off with tornados annihilating Hollywood, a tsunami floods Manhattan, and worst of all, Earth is about to end up in a second ice age. Now jack must make a dangerous trip to his teenage son, Sam, who is in pandemonium in New York.
- CAUTION: Many Spoilers Within.<br/><br/>In all our human arrogance, let this film be a stern warning to us all: no matter how much money Independence Day might have made, you cannot create another blockbuster by simply using that screenplay as a template for another movie, and merely changing the bad guy from space aliens to mother nature. In The Day After Tomorrow, Roland Emmerich (Irwin Allen reincarnated, apparently) has attempted just that, and the result is more catastrophic than a 7-10 day return to the Ice Age. Or was it 7-10 hours? Or weeks? Who the hell can tell how long this tale of woe was supposed to have covered? (My woe lasted 123 minutes, your mileage may vary).<br/><br/>The Day After Tomorrow may win an academy award for special effects. But that has to make us wonder, what is the point of that award when the special effects ARE the movie, while characterization, plot, factual accuracy, etc. represent nothing more than... well, the icing on the cake that special effects serve as in all other movies. After watching this topsy-turvy world gone mad for two hours I felt like I had watched the final attack on the Death Star for two hours, with 23 minutes of cutaways to Darth Vader trudging around the bridge thrown in sporadically for dramatic effect.<br/><br/>Granted, the special effects are good. Very good. But when they ARE the entire film, there is no longer anything special about them. They're routine. Is there an Academy Award for Routine Effects?<br/><br/>Yes, as a resident of Southern California who used to live in Kansas it was interesting to see Los Angeles get blown away by tornadoes. It was quite a lark to see the Exxon Valdez go off course yet again and cruise down Park Avenue. And it was amazing to see tourists taking photographs in New York City without the police or Swat teams descending upon them as potential terrorist threats. The special effects were that good, okay? OKAY???<br/><br/>But the story sucked. The Irwin Allen formula (brief character sketches, two hours of action, then a sigh of relief when most of the character sketches survive catastrophe) may have worked for Independence Day, but it fails miserably in this film, for several reasons:<br/><br/>* The only sympathetic characters out of a dozen or so characters were the homeless man and his dog. * There was really no story. * The brilliant nerdy girl was played by a Beverly Hills 90210 lookalike who would have been better cast as a cheerleader or a Hilton sister. * There's no time frame to the events portrayed in the film. * The science is beyond ludicrous. * The morality plays (bureacratic shortsightedness, environmental protection) were about as subtle as the morality plays in Traffic. * Product placement included Fox News, as if Fox News would ever admit that global warming exists even after an Ice Age suddenly descended upon us. * A Scottish research center manned by characters who have no Scottish accents. * An Asian woman who speaks better English than 9 out of 10 American teenagers. * As near as I could tell, the hero walked from Philadelphia to Manhattan during an Ice Age blizzard--in a day or two. * I couldn't distinguish the scientist hero from the putz President, and I still don't know if the main character was played by Harrison Ford, Bruce Willis or someone else. Worse, I don't really care. * A little kid with cancer was included in a cheap attempt to manufacture some tiny strand of concern for at least one character. * Everything in the entire Northern Hemisphere is frozen absolutely solid as a rock--except for door hinges. * The President addresses the nation on the Weather Channel. * An off-the-shelf screenplay recipe that includes 1 act of heroic self-sacrifice, ten thousand acts of human stupidity and ignorance, and a couple dozen shakes of deus ex machina.<br/><br/>In other words, you never doubt that the main characters will survive in the end, and you don't really care who lives or dies anyway (except the homeless guy and his dog), and that spells disaster for a little thing that Hollywood used to call a "STORY".<br/><br/>The only thing good about this film was the first 5-10 minutes of special effects (before they became routine and boring), and the not-so-subtle irony of watching Mexico deal with millions of illegal immigrants flooding INTO Mexico.<br/><br/>To summarize, The Day After Tomorrow left me cold. I give it 3/10--one for the homeless guy, one for the homeless guy's dog, one for the tornadoes in Los Angeles, and one for giving Mexico a taste of its own medicine. Minus one for not allowing us to fast-forward or otherwise escape the opening trailer for some other lousy movie when you insert the DVD.
- I wasn't expecting much from this, only some mild entertainment. Yet, I was disappointed. Halfway through the movie I was checking my watch and feeling like it was never going to end...<br/><br/>The disaster scenes didn't seem very impressive (I guess there are only so many ways for a filmmaker to tear apart the statue of liberty and still make it noteworthy), and I really didn't care much for the characters. Even the confrontation between the noble scientist-hero and the stupid bureaucrat Vice-President seemed too stereotypical. <br/><br/>On top of everything else, apparently reaching for the status of "serious movie" (without being successful) The Day After Tomorrow lacks any sense of humor. <br/><br/>And what were they thinking on that stupid sequence with the obvious cgi wolves - how lame was that?<br/><br/>Perhaps Emmerich's work is suffering with the absence of old partner Dean Devlin.<br/><br/>ID4 was certainly not very brilliant, but at least was fun. And Stargate (an incomprehensibly underrated movie) had a really interesting premise. But then again, the idea for that wasn't really Emmerich's...
- The really good news is that the disaster money shots are some of the finest ever filmed.
- When climatic changes, apparently the result of global warning, plunge the northern hemisphere into a new Ice Age, paleoclimatologist (a scientist who studies the ways weather patterns changed in the past) Jack Hall (<a href="/name/nm0000598/">Dennis Quaid</a>) treks from Washington D.C. to Manhattan in order to rescue his son Sam (<a href="/name/nm0350453/">Jake Gyllenhaal</a>), who is holed up in the New York Public Library with his friends Brian (<a href="/name/nm0807351/">Arjay Smith</a>), Laura (<a href="/name/nm0002536/">Emmy Rossum</a>), and J.D. (<a href="/name/nm0629538/">Austin Nichols</a>). Meanwhile, the outside temperatures plummet to negative 150 degrees Fahrenheit, and northerners struggling to head south are freezing in their tracks. The film The Day After Tomrrow was inspired by the book The Coming Global Superstorm, a 1999 fictional novel co-authored by Coast to Coast AM talk radio host Art Bell and American science fiction writer Whitley Strieber. Strieber also wrote the film's novelization. The screenplay was written by German film-maker Roland Emmerich (who also produced and directed) and American screenwriter Jeffrey Nachmanoff. Antarctica The theory is based on the fact that the Gulf Stream and its northeastern extension, the North Atlantic drift, surrounds the North Pole with a circle of warm salt water that holds in the frozen Arctic air. The premise of the movie is that the North Atlantic drift is disrupted (due to the melting of the polar ice caps and dilution of the ocean waters), releasing a flood of frozen air. The result is a sudden temperature shift as the frigid air makes its way south, leading to softball-sized hail, tornadoes, snowstorms, and massive flooding all over the Northern Hemisphere.That's not a tsunami but rather a catastrophic rise in sea level (slow moving tidal wave) caused by the disruption in the ocean's balance. Most tsunami are caused by earthquakes underwater that trigger a huge wave. However, there are no active (e.g., earthquake-causing) fault lines anywhere near New York City. Yes, normally it would eventually ebb when the water warms up and melts. But the whole point of the movie is that global warming has upset the ocean currents and triggered a new Ice Age. The snow is going to be there for a long time to come yet—say, 10,000 years, give or take 5,000. It was a Russian ship, probably in the New York harbor, and it drifted inland on the flood waters. However, it's too large to have plausibly reached the particular spot without crashing into any buildings, so the situation depicted might be regarded as a goof. Hard to tell exactly why, because it was not depicted. During heavy storms, most people would be on call, attending watches in the engine room and bridges. It is implied something more sinister happened, i.e., that the crew members may not have abandoned ship as they didn't have enough time or, if they did, they died while escaping. Most likely, they died during the storm (several causes, as such heavy trashing, being swept away, the freezing cold etc.), but their bodies were not shown, as it was irrelevant to the plot. It should. Perhaps Dr Hall carries it close to himself, warming it with his own body heat, and only takes it out briefly to look at it. The roof isn't one continuous piece of glass. It's many pieces fitted together and separated by metal framing. The flat end of the pick can fit into the crack between two pieces of glass. The license plate rim was broken, exposing a sharp end. It looks like when she moved her leg forward, the sharp piece cut into her leg. She then moved her leg up, creating a near vertical wound. Sam, Brian, and J.D. make it back from the derelict Russian ship with the penicillin for Laura's infected leg. Meanwhile, Jack and Jason (<a href="/name/nm0005231/">Dash Mihok</a>) continue trekking to Manhattan, passing several freighter ships frozen in the NY harbor at the foot of the Statue of Libery. They reach the Library but find it mostly buried under snow except for a few entranceways. Inside, they find Sam, Laura, and several other survivors dozing in front of a fireplace. When Vice President (now President) Becker (<a href="/name/nm0920564/">Kenneth Welsh</a>) hears that survivors have been found in New York, he orders search-and-rescue teams to pick them up and search New York for more survivors. In the final scene, the three astronauts stationed at the International Space Station look down at the planet below. "Look at that," says one of them, "Have you ever seen the air so clear?" The people in the library were able to survive by building a continuous fire and so on. Obviously, these other people were equally resourceful. After the storm reaches Washington, D.C., the president and part of his staff wait until it is too late to leave. Upon leaving, the motorcade is caught in the storm and the president and his staff freeze to death. Theoretically yes but it would take thousands of years. Unlike the Northern Hemisphere, the Southern Hemisphere is mostly covered by ocean. Large water masses have a moderating influence on temperature and are less prone to freezing. Earlier in the film, Hall's team analyzes the Scotland helicopter incident and determines that it was caused by a new meteorological phenomenon like a reverse hurricane. Air from the upper atmosphere was pulled down to ground level but remained at the temperature of the troposphere (−150°F). The eye of the storm is where the vortex from the troposphere to the surface terminates with the air then moving outward with the storm and warming to ground temperature. This is why the freezing happens during the eye of the storm. Dr. Hall is safe continuing after the eye passes as conditions will get steadily better because he is passing out of the storm, until it abruptly ends overnight. a5c7b9f00b
