2012


2012 a cinematic adventure is not just another apocalypse end of the world movie. It has some basis from the Mayan calendar and this gives it a realistic feel then others. It makes you think OMG this could actually happen but, then say not really. Casting some big names such as John Cusasck, Danny Glover, Woody Harrelson and Amanda Peet left to save the world. 
Jackson Curtis played by John Cusasck is a writer and an unlikely hero but, once he puts the pieces together he quickly does everything to save his family.  Along the way he meets everyone from crazy conspiracy theorists named Charlie Frost played by Woody Herrelson to a powerful mafia boss Yuri Karpov played by Zlatko Buric. Charlie tells him of a map that leads him on a insane life threatening adventure from his home in California all the way to China. Were giant space like submarines are being built in secret. The only way to secure you position is be important leader or very rich because for just 30 billion donation to procure spot until the flood waters recede.
Altogether this was an excellent movie the acting was better then expected. Usually a movie like this just throws in some big names and decent special effects and expects to rake in the dough. This was truly amazing movie because it genuinely make you think what would you do. The hero is not so amazing you can't relate to him. Also the situation is to far fetched that you totally disclaim either. I have seen many movies this year and there are few I thin should win some kind of award, and this happens to be one of them.
Okay now to rap it up and grades. This movie will capture your attention quickly and keep the entire time. The acting is top notch getting a 9.5, special affects get a 8 because they weren't bad but did not have that WOW factor. Storyline is a 10 because its realistic and does not fall apart on itself.
