2012 is a bomb

Rating: 1/10 (28 November 2009)

I love movies. I appreciate actors who take the time to perfect their craft, directors and producers who look for the perfect ensemble to tell a story enhanced by effective effects, sets, costumes and what-not. I say that so people will understand the level of disappointment in 2012.
The special effects, writing, and editing are sub-par for the professionals in this film. Danny Glover! Amanda Peet! John Cusack! How can you have a bad film?!!!!!!! And yet, the director/producer pulled it off somehow. I am a recent fan of John Cusack and enjoy many of his movies on a regular basis (Must Love Dogs, Martian Child, etc) but this is one I hope never to see again. Have you seen Martian Child? Listen and you will hear Cusacks' David Gordon lines said by his Jackson Curtis character ... how does that happen?! Save your money, re-watch MARTIAN CHILD if you want to see a movie with John Cusack and Amanda Peet. If you don't want to see them, watch anything else ... a video-taped tooth extraction would be easier and more interesting to watch.
