2012 Review

Does 2012 Live Up to It's Hype?

Plot:

In 2009, American geologist Adrian Helmsley (Chiwetel Ejiofor) travels to India to meet his friend Satnam, who has discovered that neutrinos from a massive solar flare have penetrated the Earth and are causing the temperature of its core to increase rapidly. Adrian returns to Washington D.C. to inform White House Chief of Staff Carl Anheuser (Oliver Platt) and US President Thomas Wilson (Danny Glover) that this will instigate a chain of events that will bring about the end of the world. At the 36th G8 summit in 2010, other heads of state and heads of government are made aware of the situation. They collaborate to begin a secret project intended to ensure the continuity of human life, strategically choosing 400,000 people for admission on a series of gigantic arks to be constructed in the Himalayas. To help fund the venture, additional individuals are allowed to purchase tickets for one billion euros apiece.

Good Review

[TheAltair4]

I thought this was a fabulous film in every way. The special effects are the best i've seen in quite some time and this is one of Roland Emmerich's absolute best films. As far as character development went i thought they did a pretty good job considering just how many characters they had to follow in the storyline. If they had focused primarily on John Cusack's character and his family the same way Spielberg did for Tom Cruise and his in War of the Worlds perhaps it would have been even better.

@GCdotTK Well, i'll tell you exactly what the fuck i'm talking about. Not every single movie that's made has to be an Oscar worthy masterpiece with unforgettable performances and a truly thought provoking plot, you know. Roland Emmerich isn't known for making those types of films anyway, so it wasn't like i didn't know exactly what i was in for when i went to see it. This is purely a special effects driven popcorn movie that's meant to be a fun ride and not to be taken seriously on any level.
