7. 2012
2012 looked very promising with good effects and a good trailer to gee anticipation up, this should have been great. That was sort of where it ended though. The film was a mess. The script was poor, the characters were under-developed and badly written. Even the epic set pieces werent particularly memorable due to the predictability of the whole thing. Add all that to an epic running time and its no surprise that reviewers didnt treat this favourably at all Ah the beauty of hind sight. Surely, if wed have known what we were in for, we wouldnt have paid out a blinding $769 million worldwide to watch it. 2012 - a poor quality film that really took us all for a ride.
2012 is so long, and its special effects are at once so outrageous and so thunderously predictable, that by the time I lurched from the theatre I felt that three years had actually passed and that the apocalypse was due any second. Anthony Lane of the New YorkerRotten Tomatoes: 39%
