2012 *


Director: Roland Emmerich
Year: 2009
Writers: Roland Emmerich, Harald Kloser
Cinematographer: Dean Semler

Terrible film. Aweful. I should have known better with a poster like this.

You take an interesting premise... Mayan culture predicted the end of the world in 2012... and you throw it out the window with a terrible script, and ridiculously stupid special effects.

I don't even know where to begin tearing this thing apart. Maybe with the idea of a tidal wave topping mount Everest...

Despite Emmerich, I still think the premise could have turned out an interesting film, and I don't believe disaster films have to be terrible. But the world should never allow Emmerich to direct one again.
