Enjoyable, but not spectacular

Rating: Null/10 (29 May 2004)

All around, a pretty good movie. You got your share of that feeling of impending doom. Some humor was thrown in - Why can't we shut down the US/Mexican border as easily as Mexico did??? There were also random and insignificant plot twists thrown in.
First, why did Professor Hall HAVE to go to New York to find his son? What is he going to do once he gets there? hmmm?
Second, the kid with cancer - what was that all about?

Apparently, the freeze in the library elapsed over several days, but, it seemed like it all was occurring in one day. Oh well.
But, the effects were awesome, and the basic plot of man vs nature was very enjoyable. Go see it - it's well worth a watch.
