Just terrible . . . in so many ways

Rating: 1/10 (21 July 2010)

My family watched this disaster (the film itself, not the end of the world depicted therein) on a very hot summer vacation day when our brains were already fried and we wanted nothing more than to enjoy a fun, brainless popcorn movie. "2012" was brainless alright, but it certainly wasn't fun, or even particularly watchable at times. Lots of other reviewers have competently discussed the many, many flaws of "2012," so I won't recap all the problems of this dreadful mess of a movie. I would advise watching only if you would like to see for yourself how many ways a movie can go terribly, terribly wrong. One star* lowest rating.
