Typical Hollywood Blockbuster

Rating: 5/10 (3 June 2004)

The Day After Tomorrow.
A typical Hollywood blockbuster, this film is extremely predictable (except the weather of course) for Hollywood, all of a sudden there is this great new massively marketed film being released and what happens. New York City is where it all takes place. A storm that effects the whole world is mainly in New York what a surprise.
The film itself, well the story is boring and predictable, if the weather is so cold how can the fire possibly stay lit? also if they were in a library with lots of books to burn how about the people in the other buildings that survived, what did they burn? The days just seem to drift by, if they were there for so long how did they stay looking so healthy and mentally strong.
There was barely any attention to the emotions of the characters and then at the end the President says thank you to the third world countries for letting them in, what rubbish, that things seemed to be back to normal so quickly with televisions still working etc.
The special effects were sensational though.
