I expected Better

Rating: 5/10 (5 December 2009)

2012 was a film i thought would be one of the best of 2009, the trailer made it look very promising, unfortunately it was not. Firstly i thought that the movie was meant to be based upon the Mayan theory but as i recall in the movie they mention the Mayan theory once in the background of a news report. I did think that the movie was animated exceptionally well but all of the close calls to disasters got a bit cheesy such as when they got engulfed by the ash and escaped it again and the ash just seemed to stop.
I also expected that this film would be a very gripping feature and the disaster scenes would send a chill down my spine but yet again that was a disappointing feature to this movie. There were parts to this movie where i lost interest and just hoped it would end and in the last hour especially it seemed to lose its momentum.
There were parts of the movie that did keep me entertained but i am afraid this movie could have been so much better so it only scores a 5/10
