Roland Emmerich has done better.

Rating: 1/10 (1 June 2004)

He's done better work. Roland Emmerich is losing his touch as a director of exciting films. The Day After Tomorrow is absolutely awful. His direction is undirected, the actors say the lines but without believable passion. The dialogue is lame and reminiscent of those banal disaster films of the seventies, although the effects in this are excellent. The film is plodding, dialogue is boring and one cliché scene after another with out any of the humour that made Independence Day, formula film that it was, fun and entertaining. Dennis Quaid is uninspired and not believable at all. He just was collecting a pay check. Day After Tomorrow is a big bore, a typical Hollywood piece of big budget junk. The only people that need to see this film are those who are totally into special effects more than anything else such as plot, storyline, good directing and believable acting.
