what a ridiculous film

Rating: 1/10 (20 January 2008)

it's amazing how Hollywood can belittle even the most enormous problems facing mankind. in this case they make the effects of global warming into some kind of big joke
the ice age takes place during the course of the film, and other than the occasional nod to the fact that this has effected other parts of the world including japan, the u.k, and europe. we mostly concentrate on the effects on los angeles and new york, and the forced evacuation of u.s citizens into south America (canadians btw are totally written off as dead meat)
if this whole thing wasn't stupid enough the film concentrates on the perilous trek made my dennis quaid and a couple of his buddies from Philadelphia to his son, who is in a library in new york.
the movies low point comes when one of our leading men is being chased around a freight ship by a pack of wolves. in my dreams this would happen to the producer of this movie
