The Day After Tomorrow

Very uncomfortable watching this after recent events in the Indian Ocean! Have never thought it would be anything other than one more dissapointing Summer blockbuster, so have left it alone till now. Basically it is a load of bollocks, with enough cheese to keep pizza hut going for a month, but Jake Gyllenhaal and Dennis Quaid at least make it watchable. The first hour is not half bad for a disaster flick, but once the wave hits NY the pace dries up and by the time the CG wolves arrive you just don't care if anyone lives or dies. Nevertheless, it does give a moment of pause to think that nature is not just something you can send Bruce Willis to stop - global warming and imminent climate change are indeed serious subjects we should all be thinking about. Don't bother watching the film, just click the title and learn the facts. 5.5/10 Kx
