Review: 2012
Roland Emmerich delivers another mega epic distaster flick, throwing in the same big amount of budget we’ve come to expect. Sadly, it doesn’t mean the movie will be good, and this one even gets boring now and then with the full sensory overload.
It’s basically 2 and a half hours of being chased around on the brink of Earth’s destruction, but it is done in a preposterous way over and over again, it’s just laughable (mark my words, limousine drive). Hours of split second escapes (repeat and repeat again a thousend times) don’t make a movie.
The story even follows the same structure and elements from the much better oldie Deep Impact. The depth of character makes that story more moving, so I recommend you watch that one instead.6-.
