Blasphemy

Rating: 2/10 (14 November 2009)

2012 is a bizarre combination of Hollywood clichés, Indiana Jones action scenes, and the perverse spectacle of the World Trade Center attacks.
I have come out of movies feeling many different emotions: inspiration, anger, hope, titillation, disappointment, you name it. This is the first time I have ever come out of a movie feeling ashamed. I am sorry that I contributed money to the machine that produced this blasphemy and I am ashamed that I may have enjoyed watching it.
In a single instant we are watching a comical action scene of an airplane dodging falling buildings juxtaposed with thousands of people being crushed or falling to their death. Even if this movie is somehow entertaining, it is still wrong.
If the world actually does end in 2012, this movie could be cited as one justification for ending it.
