One of the better disaster movies...

Rating: 6/10 (28 December 2015)

"The Day After Tomorrow" is one of the those type of movies that you can watch every so often, because it is entertaining and has good special effects. Was it predictable as almost every disaster movie is? Yes. Does it go from a dire situation that threaten the world to being honky dory? Yes. But that seems to be a requirement for the disaster genre.
The story is about catastrophic climate changes that plunges the world into a new Ice Age, and amidst it all paleoclimatologist Jack Hall sets out to find his son before it is too late.
Yep, that was basically the storyline summarized in a single sentence. But what drives the movie are the special effects and the destructive forces of the natural disasters, and also some good enough acting performances.
While the movie is corny and predictable to the core, then I come back every couple of years because the movie is entertaining, and the special effects still hold their own by today's standards.
If you like disaster movies and not already familiar with this movie, then you should take the time to sit down and watch it, because it is one of the better disaster movies available.
