Hugely entertaining

Rating: 9/10 (19 July 2014)

The Day After Tomorrow is a visually impressive film and if you forgive the somewhat hokey plot is extremely entertaining.
To really enjoy the film you do have to suspend belief as there are a number of highly unrealistic scenes. This film isn't about accurately portraying global warming themes, it's a disaster movie and it's about pure entertainment and on that basis this film scores highly.
There are a number of memorable scenes which gives this a high re-watch value. The destruction scenes in particular are hugely impressive.
Dennis Quaid makes a charismatic lead and there is good support from a strong cast including a nice cameo from Ian Holm.
In my opinion this is one of the best disaster films ever made and nothing less than entertaining from start to finish.
