In Theaters: “2012″ Marks the End of the World

Get ready for disaster! That’s exactly what the plot and script for 2012 are- a disaster almost worth crying over. Mix that with exceptional special effects and you have yourself a movie worth watching but not listening to.  (Better bring headphones.)  Although 2012 embodies every movie cliche, you would have to see it in theaters to appreciate the tsunamis, earthquakes, and fire balls…so there goes that $11.50.

According to The Mayan calendar the world is set to end on Decemeber 22nd, 2012. There is about two cents of scientific fact in the movie and the film doesn’t go into depth on why the world will end, but who cares, right?  Watching John Cusack outrun earthquakes is mind boggling enough. Better yet, try driving through a collapsing building- bet you can’t!

2012 claims”We Were Warned,” so in case these cataclysmic events do happen, take it from Cusack and director Roland Emmerich: Get an airplane, buy a ticket for the arc that the government is building in China (for around one billion Euros), and make sure you bring a screwdriver!

Go See It!
