Same old Emmerich baloney re-packaged as 2012.

Rating: 1/10 (19 September 2012)

Yes, you've seen it all before people, the same disaster movies in countless other films. Better films, Earthquake, Volcano, Dante's Peak, The Poseidon Adventure, Armageddon, Emmerich's own The Day after Tomorrow. Yes, Emmerich rounds out his over 2 hr flick with stock characters from War of the worlds(Spielberg version), and other disaster movie clichés in a truly boring turkey of a movie. And when it gets to the original part, the whole oh let's put the rich people on an ark crap and let the poor normal people die in the disaster. Never have I seen more of a elitist,somewhat racist plot point ever. And you know, John Cusack and his little annoying boring family will live, there's no suspense for us. There's nothing, but a really elitist, clichéd pile of garbage disaster movie to sit through. Were Emmerich should have just forgone special effects and put in stock footage from better disaster movies. It would have saved money on special effects. And I thought oh, Emmerich couldn't get any worse after shamelessly using the issue of global warming as a front liner for his next disaster spectacular. But here he is after so many awful movies from him, this the just crap. You know, Godzilla was bad, and so was day after tomorrow and 10,000 B.C. well let's not even get into that, but this is much worse. This so worse than Transformers 2, I mean at least Michael Bay put something in the movie that wasn't the same old cliché, hell he almost killed both of the main characters in the movie off. At least his characters weren't total cardboard cutouts. And it had at least better special effects than this. Oh don't see this movie, please don't watch it on TV, when there's nothing left on. Run, run for your lives and when 2012 comes and goes, laugh at this movie for it's outdated title and stupidity. And please someone stop Emmerich from directing another movie.
