New York. A truck speeding through the tunnels flips over, exploding. A highly concentrated wave of flame and heat rips through the underwater tunnel in both directions, collapsing the entrances and trapping citizens inside. Above, the raging river begins to seep through the cracks that are steadily growing, waiting to reclaim its territory with freezing waters. One man, Kit Latura, braves the impossible and enters, only to be trapped inside himself. Together with a few...

Movie Review

Daylight's basic plot had potential. Unfortunately, it didn't work off it. Most of the action scenes were unrealistic and unnecessary (especially when Stallone enters the tunnel). Both the acting and the script were horrible. The whole movie is unrealistic and stupid. Don't waste your money. Full movie review »

Are you kidding me??? Daylight was AWESEOME!!! Espically the explosion scene in the beginning. Can't really beat that. The few movies that have (back then) was really ID-4 (Independence Day). Yes- some of the acting was bad-I'll give you that. But the movie itself was good. And the music went very well with it. Like when Stallone is going into the tunnel. Instead of over-playing the overture, they wait until he's about to blow off the sewer cap. Another thing I liked was that it seemed that Stallone could die. In many of his other movies, he was basically invicible. In this one, he wasn't. And then there was that one scene (You'll have to watch it to get the real feeling of it- I won't give it away ;) where Stallone has to leave the guard behind. That was an amazing scene. So yes- the movie had its flaws. But a D+: what kind of review is that??? Give the movie some credit.
