Not as bad as everyone's saying

Rating: 7/10 (15 November 2009)

Most of the reviews I've seen for this movie label it as a terrible film. it's really not.
While the CG effects could've been better in some areas it was still really well done and the script could've used a bit more work. There was too much talking in some scenes where there should've been more action. The acting wasn't bad either. A lot of people seem to think that the actor's weren't really trying. I didn't notice that, I felt they did an okay job at least.
Overall, if you really think about this movie it makes you think. How would humanity handle the end of the world. Honestly, I think if we knew the end of the world was near, something very similar to what happened in the movie would happen in real life. Questions pertaining morality, the government, our relationships with everyone around us would really be put to the test. The film had me almost crying in some places.
Overall, not a bad film. It certainly IS a rush and will have you going "WHAT THE -" a lot with all of the disasters going on. And believe it or not, trying to anticipate how things could get worse is actually kind of fun in this.
