- The Day After Tomorrow director has a cast featuring Dennis Quaid, Woody Harrelson, the Jonas Brothers’ Nick Jonas, and Ed Skrein, yet film lacks emotional pull
- The story of the World War II Battle of Midway, its focus is on the Americans rather than the Japanese, with the CGI-heavy action scenes impressive
