2012 Doomsday Trailers

On December 21, 2012 four strangers on a journey of faith are drawn to an ancient temple in the heart of Mexico. For the Mayans it is the last recorded day. For NASA scientists it is a cataclysmic polar shift. For the rest of us, it is Doomsday.

Just remembered about it after two years since I saw this movie, and couldn't resist writing that this is the worst movie I've ever seen. Really, speaking of it like a "movie" is even too much, this is the most idiot thing I've ever watched. OK I must write 10 lines so... the worst movie ever, I really want to express my disappointment, so... how to write 10 lines? The worst movie ever. the worst movie ever...ever....this is the most idiot thing I've ever watched. The worst movie ever. the worst movie ever...ever....this is the most idiot thing I've ever watched. So. Mmm. So bad. Argh. WTF. This comment is more elaborate than the plot of this movie, and I only wrote it to complete the mandatory ten lines...could't even cut and paste...

On the negative sides, and there are many, the movie implants Christian mumbo jumbo into what we can assume are Mayan "prophecies." Confused logic takes a major role here, with mentions of planets aligning, disproving scientific evidence by simply saying "well, i dunno, but this is the best theory we have" when the scientific man just said "but this goes against all of our calculations". which makes no sense. Some mention of a black hole, although there's no explanation of what significance it has. The movie itself comes off as a pusher for confused biblical doomsday propaganda on a doomsday theory that has nothing at all to do with the Christian bible. It's somewhat insulting to my intelligence to plant Chistianity into a society that couldn't possibly be Christian - unless you're a Mormon, then I don't know what to tell you. Although I can't tell if its made by overactive Christian groups or not, it sure seems that way. This fits on the shelf somewhere with Bible Adventures for the Nintendo with just how bad it is. Confused story aside, the effects are something a highschooler could do, and the acting is bland, if not a little creepy. the cuts are inconsistent, as people will be doing some action or pose in one scene and it will cut and the same people will be in a different pose which is very distracting.On the plus side? the camera man used some nice action-movie filters. the entire movie is shot in blue it seems like.

I'm fond of movies that are quite poorly done. Especially the low-budget ones, such as this near-gem. The special effects of the ground cracking open were fine. However, those of snow falling on the Mexican forest while the temperature also fell and fell were unusually terrible. Not only didn't the snow cling to leaves, but it didn't even melt on them. Nor did below-freezing temperatures affect the vegetation itself. I'm too old to have any more kids, but were I to have a son I'd name him Stock Footage --- in the same spirit as Rip Torn. There was a fair amount of that, too. And the acting was at best so-so. So, ordinarily I'd give this the IMDb equivalent of a C-. However, 2012 Doomsday supposedly is a Christian movie. It tries to combine Christianity with the supposed expiration of the Mayan calendar cycle next December. It teaches that the Last Judgment can be diverted, postponed. It teaches other things that Jesus warned Christians of in Matthew 7:15-20. Since in 21st Century America most people don't read the Bible much, this movie … by the examples it portrays … could lead viewers to believe that they're saved when they aren't.
