I must admit I am a sucker for doomsday type movies, so I eagerly awaited The Day After Tomorrow's arrival on DVD. The movie certainly delivered in terms of big special effects and action. The concept is a good one--that global warming finally causes catastrophic weather change. Unfortunately, attempts to "Hollywoodize" that concept resulted in a movie that is quite unbelievable from a variety of perspectives (physics being the most obvious). This makes it difficult to connect with the characters and really get pulled into their plight.
Overall, worth a rental if you like this kind of thing. Movies like Deep Impact and On The Beach do it much better though.
