Leave your thoughts about Daylight.
| New York TimesJanet MaslinIt will seem suspenseful only to those who wonder whether Mr. Stallone can get the dog out alive. |
| Charlotte ObserverLawrence ToppmanDirector Cohen keeps the vehicle cruising in fourth gear, hoping the audience won't get too impatient with the familiar scenery. Big, efficient, mindless entertainment. |
| EmpireIan NathanIn typical Rob Cohen fashion, it does exactly what it says on the tin. But that's all it needs to be the visceral rollercoaster ride we all expect. |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranYet another silly disaster movie, where the special effects are believable and the characters aren’t. |
| Cinema em CenaPablo VillaçaStallone realmente convence como um homem forte e susceptível ao mesmo tempo. |
| Cinema CrazedFelix Vasquez Jr.This is a nineties disaster flick that deserves more attention... |
| The A.V. ClubPatrick GomezThe assembly line of adrenaline-pumping obstacles makes the two-hour runtime fly by, though director Rob Cohen (DragonHeart, The Fast And The Furious, xXx) still manages to highlight a handful of quieter moments. |
| The Seattle TimesJohn HartlUntil the patently preposterous finale (you can just hear the studio suits saying, "Ya gotta make it big"), the miserable perils faced by the damp, sooty, squabbling motorists are claustrophobically convincing, assuming you accept in the first place that they escaped a fireball that looks as though it should have fried every living thing between the New Jersey and Manhattan shores. |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliAlthough this film has more cracks than the collapsing tunnel, thrill-seekers in search of two hours of cinematic action will find that Daylight falls considerably short of being a disaster. |
| San Francisco ExaminerWalter V. AddiegoThe story has classic disaster-film simplicity - nothing taxing here. |
