It's the end of the world as we know it.
Jun. 15th, 2004 06:54 pmThought I'd write a little more about "The Day After Tomorrow".
In short I liked it. It wasn't a overly deep film, but it was the kind of movie fun I've been longing for for a long time.
I went with my mom, and was actually not expecting to enjoy myself to much, but from the first disaster I was squirming in my seat, in a good way that is.
It does have a few similarities with "Independence Day", does not have the same levels of humor, but is still spirited.
When mom and I left the cinema we were both gushing, I haven't had this much fun in the cinema in a long while. Now the big question is; would I have felt the same a few months ago? I honestly don't know, all I can say is if you liked "Independence Day" you'll like this.
It was great to see Dennis Quaid in a good role, hope it gives him a boost.
Jake Gyllenhaal was adorable. Mom fell in love with him, I just think he's über-huggable.
Ian Holm was as good as always, he is a serious actor, but he did have a little humorous glimt in his eye in this film.
There were some moments I really enjoyed... ( SPOILERS )
