Review of 2012

2012 (I) (2009)
3/10
Weak over the top and a waste of your time!!
18 November 2009
From the offset this movie fails in a very spectacular way. Agreed that the effects are visually stunning. But it fails to help this film from falling flat on its face. The jokes are somewhat humorous, here and there, but the story line itself is way over the top. The best thing in this movie is Woody Harrelson and unfortunately he is not in it long enough!! And talking about long, this film goes on a bit.

I not going to bore you with long comments, cause quite literally the film is not worth it. Its definitely the worst of Emmerich's disaster movies, and is so unrealistic. Take the kids to scare them a bit if you want, in fact that is the mentality of this film to be honest.

And yes, yet again its set in the US of A and yet again the Americans are the hero's, Are we not getting bored of Glorification of America and how great Americans all are in movies. Should of taken a leaf out of Peter Jackson's book and set it elsewhere as he did with district 9.

basically its a big pile of visually stunning cheese, but make of it what you will!!
