Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Daylight
Sylvester Stallone is a limo driver taking passengers to the airport when the Lincoln Tunnel collapes from a toxic waste explosion. We find out that he was a former Emergency Medical Services Chief and he is the only one that can save the remaining surviors trapped inside the tunnel. Latura (Stallone) risks his own life by going into the tunnel through a series of passage ways and attempts to find a way out for the survivors. Along the way, several unexpected events start to occur as water starts to rise, the walls start to cave in and rats are everywhere. It is also a race against time, because the city engineers want to go in and salvage what is left of the tunnel to free up a major traffic jam.
--Steve Polizzi, Resident Scholar
