Despite the clunky bits, "Tomorrow" still manages to deliver the blockbuster goods.
A disarmingly pulpy, eye-popping disaster movie during its first half, and an increasingly dull survival melodrama during its second.

The Day After Tomorrow. The future that no one expected. Not strong in geology and other sciences, but I will say that the film was shot amazingly! Hurricanes, floods and other natural disasters, of course, you want to see only in the movies. Because only in the movies does it look so much bewitching.
Report
Disaster movies, from "The Poseidon Adventure" to "Towering Inferno," are impossible to take seriously and "Day" is no exception - it's simply a fast-moving pageant of end-of-the-world eye candy.
Needless to say, the movie fails as a cautionary tale. But it fulfills its summer air-conditioning duties with flippant ease, and its enjoyably cloddish attempts at political relevance add a fascinating layer of incongruity.
What most hurts The Day After Tomorrow is its unfortunate, lecturing tone.
Seldom has grandeur struggled so mightily, and fruitlessly, with rampant goofiness.
Don't ask whether or not you should take The Day After Tomorrow seriously. Don't take it at all.
Actually, this was a terrific, popcorn filled thriller entertainment. The plot is mysterious, tense, taut and suspenseful and the visual effects, even in 3D were so spectacular, realistic and artistic. The acting was well performed and terrific, making this ode of the best science fiction action and adventure films I've ever seen, next to Deep Impact.
Report
Rewatching this in 2022 I can't help but shake the feeling that this movie was meant to be a satirical comedy but it went over everybody's head at the time.
Report
The Day After Tomorrow is an ice cold movie that doesn't really deserve to be liked at all. The only people who liked it are the people who are interested in the movie.
