2012

The fireballs will, of course, hit everything but the camper.

2012 is, like, two years from now.

I know Doomsday stories are great to hear. But are they great to see? Apparently not.

I mean, this is definitely not the type of movie that you should let kids see. It's all destruction. Kids should see movies about the beauty of creation, not destruction.

You can also see this movie for Woody Harrelson, but his scenes are quite short.

Sorry Oliver Platt and Chiwetel Ejiofor. Talented though you guys are, you have been overshadowed by─wait for it─the special effects. Danny Glover didn't come off as a really effective president, I'm sorry. And Thandie Newton didn't show off any skin. Boo.

And I think John Cusack only took this role because no one else would.

2012. USA. 2009.


Rating: Four out of ten.

Year One

Good thing I didn't watch this in the cinema. It would've been a waste of money.

Three words: This. Movie. Sucked.

If it wasn't for Jack Black, I wouldn't even have watched this.

The good: Jack Black. And Olivia Wilde. Okay, and Oliver Platt, because he was so gross.

The bad: Michael Cera, for looking like a girl, and for having only one acting style. Hank Azaria, for sounding like the sea captain from The Simpsons. The misplaced Biblical references. And the Americanization of ancient civilizations. Ugh. Please.

The ugly: The whole damn movie.
