7/10
Flawed, yet still enjoyable.
1 February 2006
Big scale, Big budget, money no object, special effects extravaganza about a climatologist, Jack Hall (Dennis Quaid) who notices that an abrupt, and massive, change of climate about to happen that could destroy the worked as we know it. Hall must try to figure out a way to prepare the world for what is about to happen. He must also get to his teenage son (Jake Gyllenhaal) in New York, which is being taken over by a new ice age.

Its cheesy, but surprisingly enjoyable, with frighteningly realistic special effects. The plot may not hold up to close scrutiny but the movie still has enough to keep you interested throughout.

From the makers of the 1996 smash hit Independence Day, this film knocks spots off that one, and provides good entertainment for the best part of two hours.
