Movie Review: 2012

Hey guys,

Hope u had a good weekend. Mine? well surely u can figure it out by now, yes saw the movie, 2012.

Well, here is my review of the movie. My own rating system, 1 to 5. 5 means darn good, while 1 is horribly poor

Casting: 3.5

Despite the strong casting with John Cusack, Danny Glover, and Woody Harrelson, somehow despite the panicking and stuff, but they never really looked scared to death or have this 'fear' look.

Storyline: 4

As expected, natural disaster story. Unlike 'Deep Impact' and 'Armageddon', this got nothing to do with any space object hitting Earth. It got to do with some solar energy that became too strong that it affected the Earth causing earthquake, tsunami, volcanic eruptions which is really a major major catastrophe.

Graphics/Special Effects: 5

Excellent! Look so freakin' real.

Overall: 4

Definitely go and watch it.

Moral of the story from 2012:

Well if you watch it, this is something that may apply or think about in real life

1. The weak will not be saved and the strong (rich, powerful, influential, smart-ass) will be saved.

2. No matter how much wanna save mankind, there will always be a 'devil advocate' amongst us.

3. The Paris Tunnel incident in the movie mentioned later that it was a whole global conspiracy by the US or some Powers to shut the mouth of 'those' who tried to break the secret that the Earth is heading for doom. Now this makes you ponder about the Princess Diana accident in the Paris Tunnel, was it really caused by the paparazzi or poor driving by the driver, or careless accident, or probably someone just wanna kill Princess Diana (and Dodi AlFayed) badly?

4. Life is short and unpredictable so live it to the fullest.

5. Pray a lot for the future of mankind. Whether u are a Muslim, Christian, Buddhist, Hindu, Jews, or whatever religion, the universal thing to do is PRAY hard.

6. Ensure that as a citizen of your respective country or nation that the government is open and not keeping secrets.

Okay guys, go and watch while the movie is still on the cinema. Piracy copy? Better watch original, worth it!

Cheerios!
