2012 is Roland Emmerich's film which uses the Mayan calendar
and other end-of-days prophecies for their doomsday scenario. It imagines the
world coming to an end in 2012.
2012 film brings off a series of wonders. The movie hits its
peak early on. It starts when Cusack drives a limo through the streets of Los Angeles as freeways
and skyscrapers crumble all around him from the shock of a 10.5 earthquake. The
preposterous flying sequence is equally thrilling. The climax occurs aboard the
giant ark, when an equipment malfunction almost threatens the entire mission.
Unfortunately, the crucial sequence is not filmed or edited
with the requisite clarity. In 2012 film, Emmerich leaves us befuddled as to
exactly what is happening to whom. However, Emmerich' 2012 deserves credit for
offbeat casting. Cusack supplies his trademark hangdog charm. McCarthy has
perhaps his best role ever as Peet's cocky. Danny Glover lends dignity to the
role of the tormented president. Chiwetel Ejiofor, as the chief scientist,
brings a moving sense of anguish to a stock role. Platt has fun playing the
villain of the piece, and Woody Harrelson also chews the scenery as a bug-eyed
radio prophet trying to warn his listeners about Armageddon.
All in one, 2012's cinematography, production design and
visual effects are awards-worthy. Music also propels the movie. It presents
American Idol runner-up, Adam Lambert, who provides a rousing anthem over the
end credits.
