Mark your calendars guys and be prepared! The 2012 is only about 3 years from now. tsk3! But the big question is if the mass destruction depicted in this film will occur or if its merely fictional.
Though im puzzled, i still dont want to close my doors of believing of what other people foresee in the near future. Malay naten or baka nga.. Ewan! Pero sabi ng ilan nakaukit na yan sa bato at nasa kasulatan na din daw ang magiging tadhana ng mundo. *Basa - pahina 20 chapter 12. lol. But seriously, accdg to scholars, the 2012 phenomenon was based primarily on the Mayan Calendar which claims that the world will undergo a transition and a massive transformation which will be in effect on December 21 or 23 of 2012 - di pa pinaabot ang Xmas. Hence, it will be the start of an apocalypse. whoah! (thats scary..)
Now lets talk about the film.. The story started on 2009 when scientists found a big solar flare erupted at the sun. Along with that, an Indian scientist - Satnam, who was based in a deep copper mine also discovered that the earth's core temperature was unstable and heats rapidly. Adrian (Chiwetel Ejiofor) - also a scientist, was invited to witness this and immediately headed back to the state to report this incident to his chief. Soon they went to the White House and discuss it to the president. By 2010, the American government along with the other head of the nations, aristocrats and multi-billionaires did a protocol and made it confidential to the public. In 2011, different artifacts and great works of art were preserved and had it replaced with replicas to keep it safe for the upcoming catastrophe.
By 2012, Jackson Curtis (John Cusack) - author of Farewell of Atlantis and divorced to his wife went for a limo ride with his kids for a camping trip at Yellowstone Park. From there they discovered that the lake and grounds were now off-limits until they were captured by some armed troops. They were relocated to a different camp site and met a bizarre man - Charlie. He was a radio jock stationed under his camper truck and spreads Mayan predictions. At first, Jackson denies all of Charlie's somehow crazy stories about the impending onslaught and the near end of the world cycle until a great earthquake shattered the state of California - then the whole world...
The next scenes were all heart pounding and jaw dropping. From car and plane chase.. Falling bridges and skyscrapers. Destruction of great world landmarks - everything! Their interpretation of having the world devastated was completely superb. Come to think of it? In reality we already experienced some of these scenes (like the ashfall, volcanic eruptions, drought, tsunamis, earthquakes) but still, the authority assures of our safety. WTF! Pero paano kung umaabot na tayo sa ganung sitwasyon?! Do they have plans or even, are we all prepared?! Onga nmn. Well, going back to the film, it ended like one of the stories in the Bible - The Noah's Ark. Vast waters covered most of the world and even reached the highest peak - Mt. Everest. It was year 0001 and soon the water recedes and the earth's crust shifted and collided til it created a new land. It was like a new world.. A new beginning.. A new cycle.
Lets all just be prepared because we were all warned. Theres still a time for a change but nonetheless we can all stand a chance. Though i was pissed off for paying a good seat to watch this movie but ended choosing to stand up along with the crowd or go downstairs sa deluxe - One time screening pa! Pero ayos lng nkita ko nmn some of my androidz berx sa baba having the same situation. At least we were all seated. Yun nga lng sumakit ang leeg namin kakatingala sa malapit at napakalaking white screen. hehe. XD
