Missed potential - By: Kate Gardner, 01 Dec 2008
I really wanted to like this film as it was an attempt to get the global warming message across to a lot of people. Unfortunately it was a bad attempt. The changein climate & its consequences happen so fast that no one will take this seriously as a possible scenario & the way that it is dealt with is idiotic. Apparently all humans are stupid, even the supposed stars of the film. In a library full of wooden furniture, they burn books - paper - to keep warm. Almost no one has the sense to stay indoorsin their own home during a storm (which only lasts 6 or 7 days, so most homes would easily have the supplies). And they really missed a trick with the zoo animalsin New York: the film has the consequence of global warming for animals being summed up by the zoo's wolves turning to hunting live humans, which is massively unrealistic; surely showing a variety of animals dying alongside the humans would have been far more poignant.

I expected the US bias, I knew the timescale would be crazy, but this could still have been worth watching. It wasn't.

Hilarious! - By: Paranoid, 09 Apr 2008
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 happensin the film just to provide some "Hollywood" diversion, justin 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! - By: Ms. F. I. Macdonald, 27 Mar 2008
an excellent achievement!i watched this with my family on a saturday night & it gripped me so much that i was actually freezing by the middle & 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 & i dont like really long films!!
