2012 a total disaster

Rating: Null/10 (19 November 2009)

Well I'm just back from watching this movie at my local multi-plex. So what did I think? oh dear where to start.
This had to be one of the most enduring movies experiences of my life. 2HRS 30 MINS, are you kidding me? I have to be honest the only reason I went to see this movie was to see the quality of the CGI on the big screen. I didn't go to see it because I wanted or thought I would see, intense character development, an intriguing story with an intelligent script, fantastic direction with a epic world class score. Thank goodness I didn't because none of these things are on show.
So why did I hate this SO MUCH?
No logic to the build up of the chaos.
Cardboard cut out character with ZERO likability or progression. Were they all based on cartoon characters.
OTT close shaves........CONSTANTLY.....
FAR to many clichés, everyone possible for a disaster was thrown in there. Some originality please.
Did I mention 2 AND A HALF HOURS.
Poor script wrote I assume by a 5 year old?
Forgettable score
Ridiculous over sentimental moments of intimacy between cardboard characters. Sorry but I don't care about them because of the poor story telling.
Last 30 Min's dragged and was extremely dull, oh and how long can some of these characters hold their breath?
I could go on.....but won't.
What did I like.
Not much, however there are a couple of AWESOME CGI scenes of destruction.
Unfortunately thats not enough, not even close enough to make this an enjoyable experience, EVEN if your brain is in neutral.
1/10 For the CGI and only for the CGI.
