2012 the movie overview: 1) Russian billionaires are fat, ugly, dumb sacks of crap that [...] Young Russian [...] with fake breasts, which in turn cheat on them with Russian younger guys. 2) Russian rich kids are also fat, ugly, dumb and spoiled sacks of crap. (you can only expect that from illiterate and fat Americans) 3) The only people in the whole movie with enough balls to come out and do "the right thing" are African Americans. 4) The guy who is in charge after the president died is a dumb white guy that only cares about saving his own ass. The only thing I noticed was missing from depicting Russians was a bottle of vodka and a winter hat. I could go on further but I suggest you watch it, I had a good laugh! --Rolland Emmerich, you are an ignorant fool, read a book or watch some discovery channel.

Watched this on dvd and actually liked it. Thought it was going to be a big budget bore. This is the thing I like about movies --every once in awhile they surprise you.

Don't go to 2012 looking for a plot. The most interesting plot point is the moral delama that some of the characters face. Other reviews say that it was predictable, but there wasn't much of a story line to predict, to be honest. There was a lot of "And when nothing else could go wrong.." moments that kind of dragged on, especally near the end. As for acting, some of the lead roles could have been cast a bit better, but most of the time the fault was within the script. It's special effects were for the most part good, but Visuals don't make a movie.

I loved this movie! The special effects alone are well worth the price of seeing or buying this movie even if you hate the story line. You get to see Yellowstone Park's valcano blow it's top and the way they save themselves buy building arcs which really isn't that crazy an idea if you believe Noah and his Arch that saved human kind buy building a giant arc. I loved the movie and hope you did too.

The special effects were great but everything else not so much. The movie goes on for too long and by the last half hour I was getting bored and couldn't wait for the movie to end.

It was okay. The plot of the movie was kind of childish... still think," The Day After Tomorrow," movie beats it by a long shot.

So farfetched and any movie that has a last line of “No more pull-ups “ is stupid. Like come on you could have changed that line. Just stupid!

I thought the special f/x were second to none. However, they should have worked on improving the dialogue and acting, which were lacklustre. Although I found the premise to be intriguing, nothing new seemed to be brought to the table in this film.

There have been many end of the world films before Roland Emmerich's 2012 hit the silver screen but I doubt that any will ever again rival its devastating CGI glory. Sadly with 2012 Emmerich has also painted his career into a corner. Seriously, how do you top yourself or the genre that defined your career when you've commited to the siver screen the greatest special effects disaster movie of all time? No, 2012 is not the greatest film of all time, in fact I'm pretty sure that artistically 2012 is as close as you can come to circling the drain but as apocalyptic visual rollercoasters go it makes the combined efforts of previous disaster films look amateurish. Any further disaster movies are now irrelevant. Traditionally scripting and dialogue are not Emmerich's strong suits and 2012 is no different. The cast might as well be meat puppets for all the wasted emoting going on. It's all about the F/X and the actors here are just here to ground the chaos for the audience. This is cinematic junkfood in the truest sense. So bad for you and yet so good.

I went in the cinema not having seen any trailers or read any reviews... And I thought it was edge of your seat, surprisingly good action! I think it's great if you go in with no expectations! Very entertaining & good acting!

Interesting concept, but you feel that the story wasn't brought up to its full potential. Besides that, after many subplots and horrible acting, there isn't anything else worth mentioning regarding this movie.

I thought this movie was alright, the idea was there but it seemed like the movie dragged on with a story that could be told in a much shorter time span. As well the actual events where very unrealistic on many occasions. As for the Price, because the Carnival theatre in Red Deer is a fair addmission it is worth it and you'll enjoy what the movie tries to capture in its story!

Because of the special effects, this movie needs to be seen for the first time on the big screen. The storyline is more or less believable & yes quite predictable. For those who loved the movie "The day after tomorrow" will probably enjoy this movie as well.

This is a modern retelling of Noah's Ark (s)arks in plural. I like the reference to the work of Charles H. Hapgood. I think he was mentioned in the last Indiana Jones movie as well. Anyways, imagine the Ark narrative stripped of any mention of God and you have rotten people deciding who gets on and who drowns. I hope a faithful movie on Noah's narrative gets filmed. That would be really cool. At least if this happened, the world would get what it deserves instead of the scenario depicted in 2012.

Just watched it! It's a good bad movie! CGIs are great, plot is awkward, every single little detail is lame, good acting though! I love Woody Harrelson's character. Go watch it, don't leave it for DVD as much of the film won't look so great on a small screen.

Filled with schlocky characters and melodrama with a dash of I can't believe these special effects are so cool. If for anything, see it for the disaster scenes as misanthropic as this may sound.

This movie has a terrible predictable storyline. At one point the mother's new husband dies by being ground up in the gears of huge door... after having saved all of their lives by using what little flying skills he had. The wife shows virtually no emotion and quickly bonds with her ex-husband... uh, I call BS!!

We enjoyed the movie. The reviews built it up quite a bit so the expectations were high on our part. It didn't meet expectations but thought the movie was good. Would recommend it and see it again.

Great effects, nothing original in terms of plot, totally predictable. Had a main character died (as Shelley Winter or Gene Hackman did in the original -and best- Poseidon adventure)this would have been a better movie.

Roland Emmerich delivers some interesting special effects - the rest is crap. The scenario is full of clichés and predictable from miles away, the actors are on auto-pilot. Rubbish for the popcorn audience under 16 years.

Great CGI's and "Woody's" character a bonus in an otherwise long and predictable movie. Should have talked more about the Mayan prophecies or how the world can actually have pole reversals. I would have been more interested in that. Also, everybody start building you arcs now. If 2012 has a sequel, they can call it "WATERWORLD 2"

I know a movie's bad when half way through I'm close to yelling out "oh, come on!" at almost every scene. Too many close calls took away from any chance for surprises, and this movie had none to deliver. Good effects, but only realistic looking, terrible story, mediocre acting, and a sad excuse for a script. Entertaining? Yeah I guess, but I'd suggest renting this one so you can yell at the screen.

John Cusack should have died at least 10 times in that movie so that was a bit unrealistic. Otherwise I really thought it was a good movie but could have been better.

The end of the world epic yet again fails to deliver. I must admit however the action sequences and the special effects were very good. Acting was also pretty good and the storyline basic but well done. Overall it wasn't the best but the action and somewhat originality deserved a movie theater experience. Probably won't be buying it when it comes out, but if you haven't seen it I would recommend renting it. Buy it only if there's a great deal!

The ending was to conveinent and the just in time plane thing was good for spectacular effect. Might be a 6 but I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings. 2012 apocalypse would be the earth totally covered in lava and people living in space ship for thousands of years and then returning to the earth and some ships venturing into the expanse of space is what I was hoping to see. To bad I do not have better writing skills. I got lots of ideas and the idea I have could be o tv series or sequel after...

Well, if you're a person who watches movies for a good plot... this is not your movie. If you want action at every turn... don't miss it. I thought the casting was very poor, which took alot from the believeablity of the film.
