Title: Dumb dumb dumb
Review: Even if you view this as a "popcorn" type movie, 2012 is terrible. By the third time I saw John Cusack narrowly escape doom by inches while the ground beneath him is literally crumbling, I was thinking "here we go again." All the CG was so over the top it eventually becomes a parody of itself, and it got *so* repetitive that it became a bit boring. Most filmmakers know that 100 explosions are not necessarily 10 times better than 10 explosions, a lesson lost of 2012.Then of course add in the stereotyped characters, nonsensical plot, and a pretty good cast wasted. The plot holes are stupendous. At the end I felt like I had lost two hours of my life. But I did finish the movie, and I think that Cusack and Oliver Pratt did the best they could with the material provided, so for that I give the movie two stars.
Is the review positive or negative?
