The end of apocalyptic rehashed movies. PLEASE!!!!!!!

Rating: 1/10 (16 November 2009)

First and foremost, I need to get this one out of my system before ripping into this pile of atomic sewage. Why oh why did Emmerich feel the need to run this film beyond 2 hours??????? How many pointless actions shots of that screechy girl in the junior pull-ups did we have to endure, Christ! that's all you need, driving through a Yellowstone Volcano, dodging flying magma, only to be distracted by the fact that your daughter is about to p*** herself. We often wonder about airport security, but if I could manage to acquire a plane by simply giving someone my Casio digital $5 watch, the mind boggles at the endless possibilities. Why didn't any of the Arc take significant damage when all the planes on the airfield swept towards them? IF the earths crust is constantly moving, why wasn't there more damage to the Arcs. At the end they said there were 6 ships, but we clearly saw that number 3 was damaged beyond repair, why didn't it sink when the Tsunami swamped the whole base?????????
I like my action movies for being unbelievable at times, but for a cosmetic surgeon to suddenly develop the ability to charter not only a single engine, but twin engine and then to top it all off a 6 engine Russia cargo plane with a full pay load is beyond comprehension, even in fantasy land comprehension. Why did the laws of physics deserve such a pounding in this film? I found myself grinding inside with every possible disaster scenario that confronted the luckless family. For example, its like yes! we've found a way on to the Arc, No! now the simple door mechanism wouldn't shut and the waters coming in. Oh my God!We're heading for Mount Everest, quickly hit reverse and we'll be saved! Yahoooooo!......Utter Drivel! I don't want to even get started on the Russian Billionaire, who could have used some of his millions to take some speech therapy lessons. Too predictable, over acted, I don't think at any point I felt any real fear or trepidation for the characters as it was pretty obvious who was going to bite the bullet. The two guys on the cruise ship??????? Please explain why it was necessary to tell us that the scientists father had been T-total for 25 years, how is that relevant to the massive tidal wave that's going to hit.
Hated this film, too long, overdone and mind numbing.
One last thing....The president is Danny aka 'Mr Lethal Weapon' Will this surely end Hollywood's love affair with making films about the earth self destructing, we're all doomed! Yeah, Doomed to watch this horse crap over and over again until someone in the board realises ' Oh wait! maybe people would like to see some half decent CGI and real character plot development alongside original story lines......no wait, make more of these abominations and splice in some extra CGI to fill in the black holes in the plot.' Typical of Hollywood these days, if you cant get it to make sense, blow something up using garbage CGI.
