A movie whose trailer lies to you

Rating: 3/10 (20 January 2020)

I remember 2009, things were a lot simpler back then. Things weren't as insane as they are now and the world was a happier place.
Of course that is unless you live in Hollywood, because during this decade and before 2012 we had a slew of absolutely horrible - yet enjoyably silly - disaster movies to watch, from titles as funny as 2012 itself to The Day After Tomorrow, we saw a lot of The End Of The World films.
This movie came out in the height of it and it was...an experience to behold.
I said it back in the day, I don't mind movies where the world ends, I don't mind movies that have religious themes, I don't mind Nick Cage as an actor that much.
But the problem I had back then and still do today, is the asspull storyline of using a numerology idea where you can predict any and all disasters by having random number generators throw out numbers.
And inserting an allegory of The biblical Armageddon and then the Garden of Eden.
If you're going to do one, DO one.
If you're going to do the other, DO that.
Don't try and insert one into the other, because then you are just cheating the viewing audience into hating the film for lying to it.
You don't see people complain about the movies like Sharknado or even movies like Little Women for lying about their premise to get you into the cinema. They have their own barrel of crazy to deal with. But things like this, that have no real reason to watch outside of the religious who enjoy seeing this stuff or the mindless who just like splosions and don't care where they come from.
Everyone else just hates this stuff...
