2012 Doomsday (2008)

I won't judge anyone for making a propaganda film made to cash in -or in this case, to convert in on- the premise of the 12/21/12 doomsday prophecy. But seeing this movie was PAINFUL. The script was ridiculous, the acting BAD and the sets and props cheesy. Combine this with the preachy, preachy, preachy message and it was all I could do not to hit myself for renting it. But once it was over I thanked god for helping me survive the sheer stupidity, and as well for the video store staying open until midnight. I turned it back in and found something that took the bad taste off my brain. In the future I will definitely be checking the storyline details more thoroughly before renting or buying any film. My advice to those thinking of seeing this piece of religious exploitation is to save their money.

AAAAaagggh. Actually, that's better than what you get from this piece of crap. What a waste of my 1.5 hours. Summary should be rewritten to include the "god message". This movie would be fine on Vision Network or some such crap, but it has no place on SciFi or Space. There's no science fiction - it's Anti Sci-Fi with that stupid god message splattered throughout. Acting so bad it can't even be campy, effects that don't make any sense and a plot we've all seen or heard before - which nobody with half a brain would sit through had we known what was coming. The only reason I watched to the end was in the hope that a tsunami or lightning bolt would wipe them out in the end. No such luck. Everyone who has wasted their time - even one minute - should join a legal action against whoever created this trash. Deserves zero votes. Not even a "Rotten Tomato".

Too bad it was just the bug-eyed, religiously delusional old lady that got raptured out of this film. I wish the entire cast, crew, director, and especially the scriptwriters had been raptured to high heaven before this dreck was produced. Then the rest of us unfortunate souls left behind wouldn't have had to endure this theological, cinematic insult. The acting is wincingly bad. The dialogue painfully wooden. I'm trying to remember a movie worse than this but I just can't. My favorite part: in the climactic scene, with Doomsday seemingly near at hand, we see the pregnant "Wakanna" being led up the steps of the temple to give birth to some new savior who will lead us all back to God. The dude helping her says, not once, but twice,"Watch your step."

(Sorry about my pauper English.)What can I say...??? I think the film is not so bad as the reviews says. I liked this one more than Marshall's 2012. I mean: do you need hundred millions of dollar just to say the rich people will safe their asses meanwhile I'll die because I'm poor??? Well... trust me I know it so far.... I found a review of Doomsday which said: "On the other hand, I must say that Nick Everhart gets direct the movie as if it were a larger production budget, if it were not mounted with the ass, with an irregular rhythm in which the scenes of "apocalyptic threat" are interrupted by jam endless conversations about God. Hour and a half boring until the stones." I agree with the most of that. This film has bad actors, a strange story (I didn't understand at all),bad effects (the snow doesn't looks real) and please, don't talk about the inexplicably ending.... Anyway Nick did a great work. In somehow I liked it. And some people are discussing if there were Christians in America before Columbus arrived???!!! Come on!!! it's just a film!!!! It's just fantasy!!!! Who cares????
