Roll On 2012!

Watched “2012” the movie today, starring John Cusack, Amanda Peet and a host of other forgettables.

*sigh*

Painful. Excruciatingly painful. Stupid, trite, cliched, cheesy, corny, predictable, platitudinous, illogical, shallow. Other than some awesome special effects and computer-generated scenes of apocalyptic devastation, this movie is a two-and-a-half-hour abomination. An abortion of talent, intellect, mental stimulation... It's so dumb that it cannot even constitute mindless (literally!) entertainment. You know those movies that are so pathetically fatuous that you end up cheering for the bad guy (or, in this case, willing the "good guys" to all be obliterated)? This is one such instance, par excellence.

It was only the cuddly company off whom I could bounce my searingly cynical comments that prevented me incurring brain hemorrhage about a half hour into it.

If you have the slightest temptation to watch it, don't. Give it a WIIIIIIIIDE berth.
