AccessoriesReviewseven Turner dosnt like it Review date: 2008-05-20 Rating: 2 out of 10 This film is so stooopid its sily and wrong im gonna tell my mummy and my daddy and russell hoyle just how much this film really smells this film is stinky even Russells glasses couldn't handle it and Turners tennis shoes ran a mile. Hilarious! Review date: 2008-04-09 Rating: 2 out of 10 An attempt at a big budget, zeitgeist film that'll have `em queuing around the block. I can just imagine the production meetings: "Hey, I've got an idea. A disaster movie about man made global warming." "But how do we pad the middle out with exiting stuff?" "I know, let's get some wolves to chase some kids." "Wolves, in New York when it's all under water?" "Hmmm, hang on... I've got it! We'll have the wolves caged up on a ship that's floated into Manhattan." "Why are the kids on the ship?" "To get some prescription drugs. Everyone knows ships are full of prescription drugs!" "Errrr, ok...but if the wolves are caged, why are they running about?" "But the ships deserted because of the global warming, the wolves have got out by themselves.." "...ok....." I'm not exaggerating. This actually happens in the film just to provide some "Hollywood" diversion, just in case the tabloid audience were getting bored! And at the end, we get the PC message: it's not too late to stop this if we just DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! Utter garbage. ace! Review date: 2008-03-27 Rating: 8 out of 10 an excellent achievement!i watched this with my family on a saturday night and it gripped me so much that i was actually freezing by the middle and needed extra blankets!(you'll understand if you see the film) i'd really recommend this, the only reason i didnt give it 5 stars was because it lasted for a really long time and i dont like really long films!! questionnable but exciting thriller Review date: 2008-03-19 Rating: 8 out of 10 Dennis Quaid (Any given Sunday) stars as Jack Hall, a scientist who discovers that the world is becoming even more vulnerable to global warming and as the weather takes dramatic turns over the world, he is in a rush against time to think of a solution, and to rescue his son Jake Gyllenhaal (Donnie Darko) from New York. The whole ideology about global warming becoming as devastating as this has been questioned by many critics, I for one was a bit unsure that the world could suffer as badly as this. However this 2004 disaster film does hit on a fair enough point. The film basis itself on an idea focused upon in today's media but doesn't really dive deep within the causes of global warming, its more of a case of its happening so deal with it kind of concept. The film also runs on a few somewhat corny conventions such as saving the day and love. Also it is slightly confusing as a lot of cast is talking in specific scientist lexis for majority of the time. There are also too many characters to focus upon and not enough consistency regarding their personal issues. Despite these flaws, it is still a remarkable film. Its fast and tense throughout with great CGI and the acting and characters are acceptable enough to carry the film right to the very end where some viewers might feel slightly let down because it is a bit of an anticlimax. Many scenes are exciting and grab and surprise you. The plot is fairly consistent and focuses on the family who all have their own personal issues to revolve which are good little sub stories. Many scenes are quite dramatic especially with the water and the wolves later on. The use of the library was really significant and effective but most importantly claustrophobic. The settings were well established. The film is perhaps one of the best disaster films ever directed and justifies the genre beautifully. watch it any day of the week Product Details/SpecificationsActor(s): Dennis Quaid Emmy Rossum Dash Mihok Jay O.
