We watched The Day After Tomorrow last weekend. Good special effects, dreadful story and poor attention to detail! When Dennis Quaid finally finds his son alive and well in a frozen New York, he is so taken by emotion that he forgets to close the door! - Despite the fact that it's so cold outside that you could freeze instantly. And Jake Gyllenhaal is way too old to play an 18-year-old (ok - he was only 24 when the movie was made, but he still looked too old)! And really, I didn't care that Dennis Quaid's wife was a dedicated doctor, who stayed all alone in the hospital with a young patient, waiting for an ambulance, because the child could not travel by regular transport - with the snow storm outside, I'm not sure the ride in the ambulance was going to be the best anyway. And why did Dennis Quaid have to jump over the rift in the ice when he was in the Antarctic? Just to show what a hero he was? Mmmm. I did watch it to the end though. A good movie if you're in a bitchy mood and you want to give out!
