This movie is horrible! The acting sucks, the "effects" suck. Why can't Hollywood generate any decent horror movies these days?? I can see why there are no good named actors in it. Anyone with a brain would have looked at the script and would know this movie was a joke. So many of the scenes in this movie just made me constantly be like WTF??? An hour and a half of my life I'll never get back. If you want a good horror movie, this is not for you. I wasn't scared at all, not that horror movies scare me anyway. There was definitely no yuck factor either. This movie should be lost forever! I can't see why anyone would want to watch this movie on purpose.

I will list the dumb things that happens as they happen1. Shows baby coming out of womb. Can't be that nasty...really 2. Epidural? sitting up while pushing? 3. Doctors don't care about religious beliefs? 4. C section while sitting up in a chair? 5. Grey, plastic baby? 6. BABY GIVES MOM A HEAD JOB?!!!????!?!??!??!?!!!!! 7. Dad dies of drinking boiling water??????? 8. Sister puts finger in cops face and cop doesn't get angry??? Hmmm!!!! 9. Mom changes poopy baby on kitchen table? (Has totally forgotten her husband was murdered/suicide...just hours ago) 10. Want some coffee? Let me pour you a spoonful!! 11. Phone rings " PUT SEBASTIAN ON THE PHONE"..."WHO IS THIS" "IT'S SEBASTIAN"....seriously..oh Sebastian is the 9 day old demon baby. 12. Dead husband rape scene...wowwwwwwwwwww 13. Creepy guy same clothes three days straight? 14.Yeah that chair made out of bamboo will hold the door closed 15. Baby gets mad cause it's called a half hemorrhoid half herpe 16. " Hey you got a package"...by the way " Some creepy guy is in the house...I called the police".."Did you call everyone?" Yes I called everyone" (Who is everyone?) 17. SOOOOOOOOO the 10 day old baby can sit up on the floor and watch someone in the shower?????? 18. The baby poops on the wall and then eats his aunts throat out and crawls away. 19. Lady talks normal one scene and next scene she has an accent. 20. Baby kills sister and mom still wants him back? 21. Killing random homeless people? 22. Ugly demon baby eats officer for like 5 mins while mom watches. 23. Mom still wants baby back???????????? 24. Ugly baby ,who is now 3ft tall, comes out looking like a cyclops midget with horns...mom say " Sebastian I love you...I'm your mom...really?????????? She wins the mom of the year award. She earned it. 25. Why are her breasts out? So unnecessary 26. So when they did casting, did they specifically look for bad actors? 27. 10 mins later...it's a baby again? 28. Preachers can get it too

There were quite a few strikes against this movie from the beginning. First, the acting is not very good over all. No one really stank but no one was very good either. It rather reminded me of the level of acting you see in a high school play. Secondly, the sound was a problem. There is not very much background music in the movie and many of the shots seem kind of flat sounding as if they were shot in a padded warehouse or something. Even the street scenes are oddly empty sound- wise. There is a lack of motor vehicle sounds, animal sounds, people sounds, even the wind is missing. Third, the baby/monster looked ridiculously unbelievable. It looked like a wooden or plastic dummy being jerked along on strings or in some cases just thrown at people. It's face never even moves. Fourth, the dead rats that are left everywhere are laughably fake looking. You can buy more realistic ones at Walmart near Halloween. Fourth, the plot was beyond predictable there was no mystery, no twist at all. It laid everything on the table from the first scene. I usually try to find some good in any movie I watch. Oddly enough, the only I can think of to say in a positive manner is that Sara Malukal Lane, the main character, has truly lovely breasts. I am a straight female with no interest in girls at all, but I could not help but notice how perfectly shaped and placed they are. Showing them a couple of times was probably the best decision the director made in this movie. Other than that, it is an utter waste of time.

While I was admittedly not expecting much from 12/12/12 the DVD cover was really advertising, so I thought to myself this could be a worthwhile watch overall. Unfortunately, 12/12/12 is anything but, only the fact that some of the actors are genuine eye-candy comes close to a saving grace and that is not enough to save a movie. The movie looks cheap, it is dully lit and choppily shot but it was the ugly and unfinished-looking special effects that really cheapened 12/12/12 from a visual front. Any attempts of atmosphere are hindered completely by bizarre sound effects and overbearing scoring. You are also laughing out loud at the utter stupidity of the dialogue, the lines themselves are horrendously bad and very awkwardly delivered. The story is the biggest failing, pedestrian, utterly predictable from each frame to the next, too many ridiculous and unbelievable moments to list and a complete lack of suspense are what basically sums up the story of 12/12/12. The characters are lifeless cardboard cut-outs that you learn nothing about, the baby especially is creepy and actually in an annoying way than to anything else. The direction is flat and amateurish, and the acting from all involved is so poor that it's beyond description. Overall, terrible on all levels. And I've learnt a valuable lesson, like not judging the quality of a movie by its trailer I've learned not to assume that a great DVD cover equals a good movie. It doesn't. 1/10(I am tempted to go lower if I was allowed, but as I'm feeling generous today I'll let it stay put for now) Bethany Cox
