The Day After Tomorrow is a 2004 American science fiction disaster film directed, co-produced, and co-written by Roland Emmerich. Based on the 1999 book The Coming Global Superstorm by Art Bell and Whitley Strieber, the film stars Dennis Quaid, Jake Gyllenhaal, Ian Holm, Emmy Rossum, and Sela Ward.
It depicts catastrophic climatic effects following the disruption of the North Atlantic Ocean circulation in a series of extreme weather events that usher in global cooling and lead to a new ice age.[2]
Originally slated for release in the summer of 2003, The Day After Tomorrow premiered in Mexico City on May 17, 2004 and was released in the United States on May 28, 2004. A major commercial success, the film became the sixth highest-grossing film of 2004. Filmed in Toronto and Montreal, it is the highest-grossing Hollywood film made in Canada (adjusted for inflation). It received mixed reviews upon release, with critics highly praising the film's special effects but criticizing its writing and numerous scientific inaccuracies.
Plot
Jack Hall, an American paleoclimatologist, and his colleagues Frank and Jason, drill for ice-core samples in the Larsen Ice Shelf for the NOAA, when the ice shelf suddenly begins to split away. At a UN conference in New Delhi, Jack discusses his research showing that climate change could cause an ice age, but US Vice President Raymond Becker dismisses his concerns. Professor Terry Rapson, an oceanographer of the Hedland Centre in Scotland, befriends Jack over his views of an inevitable climate shift. When several buoys in the Atlantic Ocean show a severe ocean temperature drop, Rapson concludes Jack's theories are correct. Jack's and Rapson's teams, along with NASA meteorologist Janet Tokada, build a forecast model based on Jack's research. Jack tries to get Becker to think about evacuations in the Northern States, but Becker again ignores him.
A massive storm system develops in the northern hemisphere, splitting into three gigantic hurricane-like superstorms above Canada, Scotland, and Siberia. The storms pull frozen air from the upper troposphere into their center, flash-freezing anything caught in their eyes with temperatures below −150 degrees Fahrenheit (−101 degrees Celsius). Meanwhile, the weather worsens across the world: Tokyo is struck by a giant hail storm, Nova Scotia has a 25-foot (8-meter) storm surge in seconds, a three-helicopter special task force tasked with rescuing the British Royal family from Balmoral Castle crashes in Scotland after all their fuel lines freeze, along with their crew, and Los Angeles is devastated by a tornado outbreak. Following this, President Blake issues an executive order for the FAA to ground all air traffic across the country, too late to prevent several crashes.
In New York City, Jack's son Sam, and his friends Brian Parks and Laura Chapman participate in an academic decathlon, where they meet a new friend named J.D. New York City is soon caught in the North American hurricane, and the weather gradually becomes more violent, resulting in street flooding and eventually a massive storm surge that floods most of Manhattan. This forces Sam's group and other New Yorkers to seek shelter at the New York Public Library, but not before Laura accidentally cuts her leg. While cellphone communications are down, Sam is able to contact Jack and his mother Lucy, a physician, through a working payphone, and Jack advises him to stay inside and promises to rescue him. After narrowly avoiding drowning in the freezing water, Sam and Laura return to inform the other survivors about what Jack has told them. Meanwhile, Rapson and his team are caught in the European snowstorm, their fates unknown, while Lucy remains in a hospital caring for bed-ridden children as it is being evacuated, where she and her last remaining patient, Pete, are eventually rescued by the authorities.
Upon Jack's suggestion, President Blake orders all citizens in the Southern states to be evacuated into Mexico and Latin America, as the Northern half is doomed to be the most severely hit region by the superstorm, but they are nevertheless warned by the Federal government to seek shelters and stay warm, with some aid being provided.

In the library, a significant amount of survivors, as well as citizens from other structures, decide to head south once the floodwater outside freezes in spite of Sam's warnings to stay inside and wait out the snowstorm, and are later found fatally frozen by Jack and Jason, and only a few dozen survivors in the Public Library end up heeding Sam's advice to stay put, burning books and collecting food and water to stay warm as the temperatures plunge.
Laura eventually develops blood poisoning from her untreated leg injury, forcing Sam, Brian, and JD to venture out towards a Russian cargo vessel that had drifted into New York City during the storm surge for penicillin and food supplies, fending off a pack of gray wolves that have escaped from the Central Park Zoo before the storm surge.

On the International Space Station, astronauts look down in awe at Earth's transformed surface, with polar landscapes and ice sheets extending across much of the Northern Hemisphere.

Production
Development and writing
The Day After Tomorrow was inspired by Coast to Coast AM talk-radio host Art Bell and Whitley Strieber's book, The Coming Global Superstorm,[3] and Strieber wrote the film's novelization. To choose a studio, writer Michael Wimer created an auction, with a copy of the script being sent to all major studios along with a term sheet. They had a 24-hour window to decide whether to produce the movie with Roland Emmerich directing, and Fox Studios was the only studio to accept the terms.[4]
Filming
The Day After Tomorrow was predominantly filmed in Montreal[5] and Toronto,[6] with some footage also shot in New York City[7] and Chiyoda, Tokyo.[8] Filming ran from November 7, 2002, until October 18, 2003.[9]
Visual effects
The Day After Tomorrow features 416 visual effects shots, with nine effects houses, notably Industrial Light & Magic and Digital Domain, and over 1,000 artists working on the film for over a year.[10] Although a miniature set was initially considered according to the behind-the-scenes documentary, for the destruction of New York sequence effects artists instead utilized a 13 block-sized 3D model of Manhattan which was then textured with over 50,000 scanned photographs;[11] due to its overall complexity and a tight schedule, the storm surge scene required as many as three special effects vendors for certain shots.[12] Similarly, the opening flyover of Antarctica was entirely computer-generated—it is considered to be the longest all-CG opening scene in film history, surpassing the space zoom-out from the opening of Contact (1997).[13]
Music
The score soundtrack for the film was composed by Harald Kloser and released by Varèse Sarabande.[14]
Release
Home media
The film was released on VHS and DVD by 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment on October 12, 2004, and was released in high-definition video on Blu-ray in North America on October 2, 2007, and in the United Kingdom on April 28, 2008, in 1080p with a lossless DTS-HD Master Audio track and few bonus features. DVD sales were $110 million, bringing the film's gross to $652,771,772.[15]
Reception
Box office
The film ranked No. 2 at the box office (behind Shrek 2) over its four-day Memorial Day opening, grossing $85,807,341. It led the per-theater average, with a four-day average of $25,053 (compared to Shrek 2's four-day average of $22,633). At the end of its theatrical run, the film grossed $186,740,799 domestically and $544,272,402 worldwide. It was the second-highest opening-weekend film not to lead at the box office; Inside Out surpassed it in June 2015.[1]
Critical response
Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes reports that 45% of 220 critics reviewed the film positively, with an average rating of 5.29/10. According to the website, it is "a ludicrous popcorn flick filled with clunky dialogues, but spectacular visuals save it from being a total disaster."[16] Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times described the film as "profoundly silly" but nonetheless said the film was effective and praised the special effects. He gave it three stars out of four.[17]

Political and scientific criticism
Emmerich did not deny that his casting of a weak president and the resemblance of vice-president Kenneth Welsh to Dick Cheney were intended to criticize the climate change policy of the George W. Bush administration.[18] Responding to claims of insensitivity in his inclusion of scenes of a devastated New York City less than three years after the September 11 attacks, Emmerich said that it was necessary to showcase the increased unity of people in the face of disaster because of the attacks.[19][20][21]
Some scientists criticized the film's scientific aspects. Paleoclimatologist and professor of earth and planetary science at Harvard University Daniel P. Schrag said, "On the one hand, I'm glad that there's a big-budget movie about something as critical as climate change. On the other, I'm concerned that people will see these over-the-top effects and think the whole thing is a joke ... We are indeed experimenting with the Earth in a way that hasn't been done for millions of years. But you're not going to see another ice age – at least not like that."[18] J. Marshall Shepherd, a research meteorologist at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, expressed a similar sentiment: "I'm heartened that there's a movie addressing real climate issues. But as for the science of the movie, I'd give it a D minus or an F. And I'd be concerned if the movie was made to advance a political agenda."[18] According to University of Victoria climatologist Andrew Weaver, "It's The Towering Inferno of climate science movies, but I'm not losing any sleep over a new ice age, because it's impossible."[18]
Patrick J. Michaels, a largely oil-funded climate change denier[22] and former research professor of environmental science at the University of Virginia who rejects the scientific consensus[23] on global warming, called the film "propaganda" in a USA Today editorial: "As a scientist, I bristle when lies dressed up as 'science' are used to influence political discourse."[24] College instructor and retired NASA Office of Inspector General senior special agent Joseph Gutheinz called The Day After Tomorrow "a cheap thrill ride, which many weak-minded people will jump on and stay on for the rest of their lives" in a Space Daily editorial.[25]
Stefan Rahmstorf of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, an expert on thermohaline circulation and its effect on climate, said after a talk with scriptwriter Jeffrey Nachmanoff at the film's Berlin preview:
Clearly this is a disaster movie and not a scientific documentary, [and] the film makers have taken a lot of artistic license. But the film presents an opportunity to explain that some of the basic background is right: humans are indeed increasingly changing the climate and this is quite a dangerous experiment, including some risk of abrupt and unforeseen changes ... Luckily it is extremely unlikely that we will see major ocean circulation changes in the next couple of decades (I'd be just as surprised as Jack Hall if they did occur); at least most scientists think this will only become a more serious risk towards the end of the century. And the consequences would certainly not be as dramatic as the 'superstorm' depicted in the movie. Nevertheless, a major change in ocean circulation is a risk with serious and partly unpredictable consequences, which we should avoid. And even without events like ocean circulation changes, climate change is serious enough to demand decisive action.[26]
Environmental activist and Guardian columnist George Monbiot called The Day After Tomorrow "a great movie and lousy science".[27]
In 2008, Yahoo! Movies listed The Day After Tomorrow as one of its top-10 scientifically inaccurate films.[28] It was criticized for depicting meteorological phenomena as occurring over the course of hours, instead of decades or centuries.[29] A 2015 Washington Post article reported on a paper published in Scientific Reports which indicated that global temperatures could drop relatively rapidly (one degree Fahrenheit change or 0.5 degrees Celsius change over an 11-year period) due to a temporary shutdown of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation caused by global warming.[30]
