THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW
AMC, 8 ET/PT
The summer box office offers its share of big-budget action and disaster movies, but none of them can top Independence Day director Roland Emmerich’s climate catastrophe tale, The Day After
Tomorrow. The 2004 film’s big effects, and even bigger schmaltz, holds up 13 years later, as its characters (played by, among others, Dennis Quaid, Jake Gyllenhaal and Emmy Rossum) attempt to survive a storm that plunges Earth into a new Ice Age.
