2012 is a giant special effects film, that grows ever so tiresome as the film heads towards its conclusion. John Cusack and almost every actor is wasted in the film. They have characters with zero depth and the family element fails, not an inspired option by the filmmaker. The action scenes are impressive, with that Yellowstone set piece being a highlight. The film is empty and it never engages the way it should. The film leaps from one fly over scene to the next. I wanted to enjoy this film, but there's nothing guilty to enjoy with this film.
