Think big alienships can't be topped? They can! Beware of To-Tomorrow...

Rating: Null/10 (12 May 2004)

Roland Emmerich, the Master of Desaster is back. After dead soldiers, Egyt-Aliens, merciless invasions of the third kind and giant-green-monsters, this time the whole northern hemisphere is to be destroyed ... and no one will stop it.
Is the scenario of another iceage truly fictional? The danger is more real than one might think, even if we still got hundreds of years and the climatic chances wouldn't be that drastical, this may happen one day.
Even the movie has its small little hidden messages, it is still what it should be: damn good entertainment. The forces of nature threatens you, the struggle of survival thrills you, the drama on the streets warms your heart and a few moments still brings you to laugh (for example (small spoiler!) the mexican close their border due to the americans flee into the south). Oh, and don't forget the small little lovestory.
The cast is this time not as famous, but still does a great job. Dennis Quaid in the lead, Jake Gyllenhaal proves that he can do more than just talking to giant rabbits, with the allays great Ian Holm and the sweet newcomer Emmy Rossum.
This time Emmerich focused just on a small bunch of people, which was definetly a wise doing. Because of that the story seems not as much constructed as in ID4.
The effects look breathtaking, you have charackters you feel for and even the movie is quite dark, there is a glimpse of light at the end. To cut a long story short: if you liked Stargate and ID4 you won't be dissapointed. This cool movie will sweep you away...
