2012 Tamil Dubbed Movie Torrent-----------------------------------------DOWNLOAD: http://urllio.com/r1fc6 -----------------------------------------When the geologist Dr. Adrian Helmsley and his team discover that the core of Earth is heating due to solar radiation, he advises the North American President about his findings. The American Govern collects money from the worldwide leaders to build arks to save them with necessary people to rebuild civilization. Meanwhile, the unsuccessful writer Jackson Curtis discloses that the world is near to end and tries to save his son and his daughter from the tragic end.A frustrated writer struggles to keep his family alive when a series of global catastrophes threatens to annihilate mankind.Yes, I walked out on this movie, 20 minutes before the ending. I've seen lots of films that were crapper, but this one was so damn aggravating. And unfortunately I went to see it by myself, so I couldn't relieve the tension by turning to a friend to say 'I HATE this film and want these characters TO DIE'.
To start with the okay things first - some of the disaster sequences were hugely excessive and brilliantly creative in their way (9 or 10 out of 10), it's ambitious in size, and the cast was mostly good. I enjoyed the comic Russians, even though they were clichéd. I've enjoyed slightly silly disaster films in the past, like Knowing and The Day After Tomorrow, so I try not to take a snob attitude towards them.
Now for some of why I HATED this - *SPOILERS* * Other people have commented on the 'heroes' (ie the dysfunctional white family) escaping every disaster at the last moment, more unbelievably than Indiana Jones ever did. While everyone else screams & falls down, continents literally move across the globe for this family's convenience! This is amusing once or twice, but then just gets silly. The emotional problem with this is that you can then only take this as being enjoyable action-comedy. But at the same time BILLIONS OF PEOPLE ARE BEING KILLED (there's no gore, but it's clear everyone on the planet is violently killed), and then even more amazingly you are meant to care whether this dull dysfunctional family gets back together. No, I wanted them DEAD! * This family is AWFUL. Despite the world going to hell, they care for nobody but themselves. They even take their escapes for granted, and all they can give the dying people around them are blank stares and then go back to talking about their personal issues. At least their young girl has the decency to sob once or twice (okay, I take back wanting her dead, but not the others). At a point later in the film, where the mother begs someone to save her kids, I wanted them to ask her what she'd ever done for anyone else's? What a cow. Drown em. * There's nothing wrong with depicting world disaster through the eyes of an ordinary family, but the story isn't actually told through their eyes only, so their importance is never explained. Why am I meant to care? * Did every African-American have to be so bloody noble? EVERY SINGLE ONE? * Having all the non-Americans get the secondary roles left a nasty taste. Because the rule in disaster films is that most of those secondary characters are just there to be killed off. The WORLD is ending, not just the US. But everyone takes orders from the US President, everyone is happy to talk English, and if you're a character from outside the US in this movie, say your prayers. Or rather, don't even bother. * What was the point of filling ships with billionaires? Their money would help build the things, but once everyone else on the planet dies, crusty old billionaires are not only not the best people to hang around with (they're generally not known for their manual labour or scientific skills), but after the world is destroyed so will 99% of their wealth! Their assets will be wiped out. There is no bloody point! A possible plot-line would have involved SOME billionaires bribing their way on board. But boatfuls of them? I have a low opinion of billionaires, but am certain most would be way too smart to think that was a good idea. * This film is kind of insulting to other nations. Even though plenty of US Presidents have been creeps, not all of them have been, and I can accept a heroic US President in a film. BUT, it's insulting to have other world leaders follow him blindly, and have him behave so nobly, going down with his country, while then portraying the Queen of England as one of the loathsome billionaires buying her way out - considering that the Queen Mum made a point of staying in London during the blitz, it's an insult. There's another uncomfortable point where a character expresses exasperation at the type of people they're saving - just as the camera catches sight of a smug middle-eastern billionaire. It comes across as an insult, whether intentional or not, but this film doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt. Oh, and killing everyone in the Vatican, weird. This kind of mild nastiness could have been fun if the whole film had've been more wicked and bitter, maybe making John Cusack a lovable sleazeball, but no, it has to attempt to pull on our heart-strings too. We are simply meant to love the dull white American family, and want to see them get back together, because Hollywood films take that for granted, and to accept that all African-Americans are amazingly noble, because that's Hollywood being PC.
Where I walked out - started to get the urge when the mother begged the Chinese guard to save her children. Would have loved the Chinese guard (oh look, he speaks English) to explain to her why her family didn't deserve his help in the slightest. Where I did walk out - when one of the noble African-Americans made a god-awful speech about why they should try to save more of those horrid billionaires, that those people deserved a chance to live etc. No, I was not going to let these characters try to regain my sympathy so easily after hours of callous behaviour. And I just knew it would be a matter of minutes before John Cusack's character would attempt something similar, through some heroic action (and the plot synopsis on Wikipedia tells me I was right!).As a disclaimer, the only spoiler I have included is the overall tone of the ending, no plot specifics. Promise :)
I'm not sure whether to think of myself much of a movie critic or not. I know what I like in a film for sure, but it seems to me that I'm quite nicer to most films than a lot of people on this site. So, particularly in this review because it seems to very much from the others, I hope that you find this review somewhat helpful but it seems impossible to promise that you will agree with me.
I judge a film based on how it leaves me feeling. Not like sad gets 1 point and ecstatic gets 10, but based on the level of effect that the pull of the emotion proposed in a film has on me. I don't go off on a checklist and explore every little detail down to the last byte (i.e. character depth, particular performances, little filmmaking goofs) Thus 2012, to me, is quite possibly one of the best films I have ever seen.
I had a phase in around eighth grade when I first found out about the 2012 conspiracy in which I started freaking out. I didn't want the world to end so soon! I did a little research and learned that there was no way anything could happen, but still the thought lowered my spirits quite a bit whenever mentioned.
Now, when this movie came out I did whatever I could to avoid it, the whole depression residue still left in the deep, dark pits of my soul. However, as in today's case, when you're on a 9 hour plane ride and have seen every other film in the seatback entertainment system, you don't have much of a choice. So, I entered the world of this film at 30,000 feet not expecting much of anything but a bunch of explosions and $50 million of special effects.
That's where I was wrong.
You see, this film wasn't just several edited clips of explosions. It was a film following the journey of an average American family, under harsh stresses, facing the end of the world. And even though a few parts are clichéd to the point where you want to rip your hair out of your head (I swear if I ever hear that 'you cannot fill a cup that is already full' analogy in a film ever again...), the ending, surprisingly enough for dealing with the end of the world, brings an extremely uplifting emotion. It proposes many possible morals to the story. It installs a sense of hope in the viewer.
Oh yeah, and then there's that special effects and bang boom KABLOOSH!!!! BAM BAM BAM BAM KSSSHST!!! BANG!!! and stuff.
Overall, don't get put off by the grim prospect of the world ending. See this film. You'll be happy you did.
So, the verdictThe mother of all disaster movies (and the father, and the extended family) spends half an hour on ominous set-up scenes (scientists warn, strange events occur, prophets rant and of course a family is introduced) and then unleashes two hours of cataclysmic special events hammering the Earth relentlessly.December 21st, 2012 marks the ending of the 13th b'ak'tun cycle of the Mayan Long Count Calendar, and it's also the last cycle of the Long Count. The Mayan Calendar ends December 21st, 2012. The 2012 Doomsday belief suggests that the Mayans foretold the end of the world at this time and, since the world is ending, there's no need to continue counting days or making calendars past that point. While that date would have had significance to the Mayans, there's no proof they actually believed the world would cease to exist. The ending of one calendar would start a new calendar, similar to how the current year ends on December 31st, but a new year is made at the same time. Some news articles published in the months leading up to December 21st, 2010, finally called into question the validity of the Mayan Calendar, stating that the end date of the calendar is recalculated to bypass December 2012 or that it had already passed. Director Roland Emmerich is known for his disaster films full of moments of comic relief. 2012 has a bit of comedy in it, but the majority of the movie is serious and sometimes quite emotional and dramatic. The scientists in the film state that the end of the world has started earlier than predicted; most likely during the summer period of 2012 and not winter, as newscaster dialog announces that the XXX Olympic Summer Games (to be held in London from the 27th July to the 12th August, 2012) have been suspended in the movie. Since the movie is about the end of the world, the majority of the world's population die, but many of the main characters survive. It has been mentioned that 100,000 people would be on each ark, plus some 10,000 Chinese workers. There are three of these ships in total, meaning that around 310,000 people survived. No. It's impersonator Lyndall Grant playing the part of Governor Schwarzenegger and reading his dialog for comic effect. President Thomas Wilson (Danny Glover) decides to stay behind while his staff boards Air Force One to escape the upcoming natural disasters. When a large earthquake strikes the nation's capital, the President, along with many others, is helping wounded citizens on the front lawn of the White House & everyone is knocked to the ground. After the President picks himself up, he sees a large tsunami carrying a aircraft carrier hurdling towards him. The scene ends as the wave and the carrier (ironically named the USS John F Kennedy CV-67) crash into the White House. Not really but Jackson (John Cusack) is probably meant to, in a minor way, symbolize Christ. Jackson's initials are J.C., and there are biblical references, such as his son being called Noah, and the arks are to help during the flood. He also leads a group of people away from danger to safety, which is a slight parallel to Jesus leading his followers to a new faith in God, etc. 2012 is based on a spec script (speculative script) co-written by director Roland Emmerich & co-producer Harald Kloser, indicating in the the end credits that the film was "inspired in part" by the book Fingerprints of the Gods by Graham Hancock. The film borrows several themes and elements from Jules Verne's rarely known novelette "The Eternal Adam", which shows a distant future archaeologist called Sofr-Ai-Sr, who belongs to a completely different civilization from ours called Hars-Iten-Schu, and someday finds a manuscript inside an aluminum box, narrating how in May 24th, 2XXX, a limousine driver called Modesto Simonet, his scientific boss (who wrote the manuscript), other scientifics on a vacation, and several other notable men and their families in Rosario, Mexico, survived a sudden flooding from the Atlantic Ocean by the heroic act of Simonet, who drove a car as fast as he could towards the mountains. In a matter of hours, the whole American Continent sinks in the ocean, except for the small island that used to be a mountain. They are rescued by a cargo ship, and they wander in a futile search for land anywhere else, only to discover that the tiny island was growing every time they passed by. The manuscript author ponders on the fate of Atlantis, and points a parallel with his situation. This old document leads Sofr to think that his civilization is descendant from those survivors after a period of mass involution of the human race, and that they survived thanks to a whole new continent that raised from the bottom of what used to be the Pacific Ocean for the survivors, and for Sofr is the only existing continent. Also, Sofr theorizes that is imminent that another global flooding happens someday. While the movie is far from an adapted work, a small credit would have been used instead of that of Graham Hancock, given the obvious allusions, but the reason why it wasn't the case is not known by the public. The world was either not given enough time to finish them or there wasn't enough money to build them without drawing attention and causing panic. Also, the Captain of the main cruiser tells Anheuser that one of the other ships developed a technical malfunction and possibly can't be used during the evacuation. a5c7b9f00b https://www.causes.com/posts/4946759 http://wilddogtmicir.bloggaleon.com/1537267570/ http://www.miestokate.lt/en/news/view/id/274782 http://orurovha.guildwork.com/forum/threads/5ba0d778002aa82e106a3909-back-to-the-future-the-game-30th-anniversary-edition-full-movie-in-hindi-free-download-mp4 https://www.causes.com/posts/4946763 http://www.naminukai.org/en/news/view/id/274783 http://mcspartners.ning.com/profiles/blogs/the-3-women-2-challengers-1-legendary-streak-full-movie-in-hindi http://ryukage.guildwork.com/forum/threads/5ba0d763002aa82e0f4e1459-pootie-tang-full-movie-online-free http://www.nookl.com/article/331217/palm-county-full-movie-download-1080p-hd http://whozwholive.ning.com/profiles/blogs/blanket-fort-720p-movies
