Day 38 - 2012


Day 38 and tonight I watched 2012. 2012 is about the world going crazy and pretty much ending. If you're not too annoyed with all this mayan calendar stuff by now you may just enjoy this movie. This is a disaster movie done just about as well as it can be. Ample time is spent on the characters so you sort of care about what happens to them, you've also got people of all walks of life involved somehow. It feels like a fleshed out story, which is just icing on the cake because this movie is a special effects orgy. Waves are crashing, buildings are falling over, cars are flying all over the place, volcanoes are exploding and all kinds of other stuff is going on, and it's going on on a huge scale. It's a fun movie to watch. It's not overly sappy and there's enough comic relief so things don't get too tense so all of you people who think this may scare you don't worry. That all being said there's only so good a movie like this can really be I think. It's a fun movie, don't expect an enthralling and intricate story of anything at all. That doesn't mean it isn't enjoyable though.

The worst thing in the movie is easily John Cusack's daughter, it's like all she can do is scream "mommy" or "daddy."

This gets 3.5 pull-ups out of 5.
