Review of 2012

2012 (I) (2009)
4/10
The acting carries it or kills it, depending on your taste

John Cusack is such a one note, limited actor. This movie has me rooting for his death because he's so annoying. Likewise, Etiofor seems to get roles because he's good looking and can cry rivers. He's just so bad it makes the movie impossible for me to finish.

We know the plot is stupid and the effects will be over the top. The problem for me is that I am rooting against the main characters.

The special effects are dated and so physically unrealistic it's cringe, but I could deal with that if it weren't for the overacting and bad writing. In my opinion Day After Tomorrow was more successful.
