2012 review. bad? or good?




So I just saw 2012 and didnt know what to expect. Initially i approached this film with the assumption thats its gona be another high budget hollywood flick. To my surpise, this film emodied alot of elements which i assumed would be left out.

Now to those who dont know, the film is centered around the theory that the world will end in 2012. How will this happen? Well im no scientist but i know it deals with basic geology. So in other words, its earth stuff. So yea the film has main character who is played by John Cusack. Now like most apocalyptic movies, this film has 4 separate stories intertwined with each other. So we have the storie of john cusack character, we have a story about the presidents daughter, and vice versa with the presidents chief scientist, etc, etc.

The story itself is really well acted. I say this because this film wasnt one of those predictable type of films. i guess my interest in this film would be around the fact that this type of event could and will actually happen.

but yea, back to the movie. without going into detail ill just basically give you guys a brief idea of what this film is about.

Here we go:

1. scientist guy realizes the eearth may come to an end.
2. tells president but the warning is withheld to the public due to inaccurate readings
3.John cusacks character is divorced.
4.pickes up kids from ex wife.
5.ex wife has a bf.
6. john and kids go camping to yellowstone national park
7. park is sealed off
8. john and kids sneak in
9. govemrent kicks them out
10. prior to being kicked out, john meets the scientist guy and they both become friends
11. john meets a hobo of the park
12. hobo says world will end
13. john obviously doesnt belive
14. he leaves
15. natural diasters happen
16. john is like, "oh shit hes right'
17. gets kids and wife and bf and run off
18. catch up with hobo and find out theirs arks being built
19. rich ppl accesible only lol
20. hobo gets killed.
21. family gets a plane and flys off

now i can go on, but i know u catch my drift. the film has a multiple of other characters and other scenarios.

its a good film given the subject matter. its definitelly better than "the day after tomorrow".

acting:9/10
special effects:9/10
plot:9/10

enjoy ppl
