Loving it July 9, 2010 Caitlin Livingston (SHARPSBURG, GA, US) I love this movie. always have and when i discovered that y'all had it on dvd that only made my life so much better.
Painful June 14, 2010 Joseph C. Stack This movie was pretty awful. While the actors did well, the screenplay tanked the movie. It wasn't quite Star Wars Episode I,II,III bad, but it came close.
Great movie June 7, 2010 M. Cole (Glencoe, MN, US) If you like awesome graphics, with a good story line, this is the movie to watch.
good movie, quality A/V, even though not a demo. May 26, 2010 lp (NJ,USA) bought it on sale, $10, fast delivery; quality A/V, but not demo type.not as exciting as "ID4".
Believe it or not May 4, 2010 Edwin G. Martell (Arlington, WA. USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I saw "The Day After Tomorrow" when it first hit the theaters and enjoyed it very much. I recently bought it on DVD and found, in it, many ideas and concepts that I had missed the first time around.
This movie has been attacked because, among other things, the events happen too quickly to represent reality accurately. Well, after some investigation into the subject, I learned that this scenario is probably exactly what happened at the beginning of the last Ice Age over 20,000 years ago.
This was referenced briefly in the scene in the Museum of Natural History when the staring characters were shocked to learn that the Woolly Mammoth displayed was found with fresh food in it's mouth and stomach (true story re: NY Museum of Natural History)indicating that it had been frozen solid in a matter of minutes or even seconds.
The movie is based on the book: "The Coming Super Storm" by Art Bell and Whitley Strieber (recommended reading).
I recommend to ignore the "naysayers" and look at the Science implied with fresh eyes and open mind.
