2012: A disaster....err movie.

2012 works like this: It's a disaster movie, and also, the movie is a disaster. Its about spectacle, and the build up is slightly longer than it should be but it works in that entertaining sort of way, and then the event happens...and it's great, a good fun scene full of joyous special effects and loud bangs and clangs, children screaming and people running, but then the first money scene ends and the fun just...stops. What happens for the rest of the movie is the build up, then an action scene, a build up, another action scene, a build up etc etc. We get characters who we do not care about (through by the numbers dialogue) talking about lives we do not care about. And this goes on and on and on until my brain literally turned to mush and i spent the rest of the two and a half hour duration looking through the movie, not at it. Its an uncreative, unoriginal, unworthy film made by untalented and incredibly boring film-makers.
It also features the worst final line in the history of movies final lines.
