I finally get to see the highly anticipated movie of the year,2012...It's a good movie...unfortunately,not a great one.

First thing first...I wanna talk about the plot...A family who just happen to discovered about the end of the world who just happen to found out the location of the ark to save humanity who just happen to find the mean to travel from America to friggin China and happen to be the only family who survive......Am sorry but I just find it WAY too convenient for me...

Ok...As you can obviously see...I don't think this piece of cinematic is that great...It was way too over hype and the mythology is obviously wrong. If you been reading on the internet that the Mayan predicted the end of the movie,the movie fail to elaborate more than that.As for the graphic,I felt that they keep changing the effect guy.One moment it look truly amazing and exciting...The next moment,it immediately turn plain and questionable.Since its a disaster movie,we were all expected to see landmark get destroy by mother nature and that is where I felt really uncomfortable. I have no problem with them trashing iconic landmarks in America and other country but...They destroyed The Christ Redeemer Stature in Rio de Janeiro and St. Peter's Basilica, killing thousands people in prayer, together with the Pope.I know they wanted impact for the audiences but for a movie about Mayan Calender predicting the end,it's just wrong to clearly focus on the destruction of Catholic and Christian landmark...What the f--k where they thinking?

The only redeeming fact in this movie is that actor. John Cusack can obviously act and he is great in here.He was able to portray the sadness and love for his family.My favorite character in the whole movie gotta hand it to a fat selfish Russian bastard name Yuri Karpov.You will either love him,hate him or both.One more thing that piss me off is that none of the character,and I mean none,gets any good character developement which is sad considering the scale of this movie.One last thing about the acting,never bring kids into disaster movie.

Do not be mistaken,despite all these flaws,the moviue has its good point too.Roland Emmerich greatly portray the epicness of the end of the world,don't blame the director,blame the script writer.Lastly,I want say that 2012...In general opinion,its a successful blockbuster of this year.In my opinion,it fail.
