Yeah, I KNOW there's one massive change in the Earth's climate and I KNOW I have to be able to take the (very) faulty plot with a pinch of salt but I do not enjoy having my intelligence insulted.
The film has a couple of early warning scenes to give us a flavour of what's to come. These take place in Delhi and in the orient. Yet, the climatic changes start in the North and the advice given to our hardy Americans is to head South. Why, why, why was the Asian sub-continent brought into all this????
Hold on a sec...it didn't start in the North at all, the opening scene is in the South, the Antarctic in fact, so how does North America, Scotland and Siberia get involved?
See what I mean....falls at the first hurdle with some very sloppy plotting. If you can put this to the back of your mind then you're going to be for an entertaining couple of hours. The effects are memorable, chilling (hehe) and faultless.
So why did I have to laugh? Manchester Utd v Celtic???? In your dreams, Mr Emmerich.
