You know something is wrong when Stallone actually gives one of the best performances in the picture.

"Daylight" is persuasive in its action moments but puny in terms of character and dialogue. Anyone who expected anything else is probably in the wrong theater.
March 27, 2009
A lower-echelon disaster thriller, in which the best character is knocked off early on and the leading man runs out of ideas with a third of the picture still to go.

This is a nineties disaster flick that deserves more attention...

It will seem suspenseful only to those who wonder whether Mr. Stallone can get the dog out alive.

Still more millennial fear and commuter angst get routed through this toll-heavy disaster vehicle set in New York's Holland Tunnel--call it The Tunneling Inferno.

Though the explosion that seals off New York and New Jersey will have even curious theater concession stand crews bolting their posts, the characterizations are strictly low-cal.
October 10, 2005
The best of the 1990s disaster-flick revivals, and certainly a solid effort by the usual standards of its star (Stallone) and its hack director (Rob Cohen).
June 18, 2002
A standard- issue disaster film that borrows conspicuously from both "Poseidon" and "The Towering Inferno."
July 25, 2005
A disaster flick about a group of New Yorkers trapped in the Holland tunnel.

Despite having to wade through no end of sigh-inducing clichés, Sly actually comes off better here than many of his co-stars, a rather unfortunate result of...bit-part actors who may well have been dragged off the street and paid in ham sandwiches.

Cohen keeps the vehicle cruising in fourth gear, hoping the audience won't get too impatient with the familiar scenery. Big, efficient, mindless entertainment.
