As with the remake of "The War of the Worlds" the producer for 'Day' just had to put in a dysfunctional family situation. Don't know why sci-fi movies have to deal with 'human stories' anyw... ay. Sci-fi should be about technology with an underlying futuristic human condition moral. 'War' and 'Day' both lose direction by putting too much emphasis on the human story....a screwed-up personal human story. And both times this mechanism takes away from the powerful theme Sci-fi is supposed to deliver. Full Review
well ... there were good and bad... THE GOOD--- Keanu Reeves, i think, performed excellent. The acting was fine, the way the story flows was great, and the dramatic sequences were outstanding. THE B... AD --- the movie dragged a TINY BIT. The action was obviously CGI and the boy was absolutely VERY ANNOYING (not really a big deal) but he was.... OVERALL RATING----- 8.7/10 Full Review
