I'm sorry, but the authors can shove disaster pictures like this up their asses. Willem Dafoe can try as hard as he wants, but even he can't save a film that is basically about nothing and that fails to highlight the incredible drama that takes place here. Someone tried to emulate von Trier's Melancholia - or was it just a coincidence that the films came out at the same time? Regardless, that did not work out.

Because yesterday was somehow never-ending, I thought I’d try Ferrara’s version. Honestly, it’s not bad, just a little boring. A less subtle approach, a little more oomph would have helped. This is more like an ode to the good side of people when it’s already too late. How human. William Dafoe plays his role, but his talents remain inadequately tapped. A good bit was the power outage with the Northern Lights. Nice music. And Skype rocks! Al Gore was right.
