The Mayan civilization have this calender see... (they have a few) which is called the Long Count, and on the Solstice 21st December 2012 it comes to an end. They ran out of rock. If the calender ticks over into the next cycle then all is good and don't forget to get next years calender from your local delicatessen, BUT...BUT... if it doesn't then say your prayers now and run for the hills, because Armageddon out of here...
An epic CGI extravaganza of a movie that by the end credits, you will wish the end of the world was nigh. Throughout the whole movie my hand was covering the mouth for quick muffled 'BULLSHIT'... There are just too many 'Just in the nic of time' moments, and way too many far fetched corny scenes, but I loved it just the same... for a few laughs anyway.
The aligning of the planets have caused the sun to heat up the earth's core, causing the crust to crumble, and Jackson (John Cusack) has to get his family to Tibet. Woody Harrelson plays an eccentric doomsday pirate radio broadcaster and Danny Glover plays another black president in a disaster movie. Funny that. Anyway it's a a lot of fun with heaps of action, but I particularly liked the scruples behind who gets chosen to be saved so mankind can live on. All I got to say is start saving now... ROBDIDO
