2012 - You have been warned.

This is a 2 hour 4o minute movie. This is very significant especially when you bring a 7 year old kid to this movie. After around 1.5 hours, little b was already asking, ironically as the storms were brewing and the human race on the brink of extinction, "What's taking so long?" The director manage to carry out the story well, in the sense that it didn't make us fall asleep, but, really if it was shorter, the impact would've been greater.

This is basically a feel-good family movie and it feels like a Sunday Matinee due to the over indulgence of family issues.

It is true that a movie depends greatly on your company. And my company made it more of a comedy than a serious tear jerker for me. Right from the start, when the year 2009 flashed on the screen, indicating the timeframe of the story, little b already made a silly remark, "We came to see 2012, not 2009.... Is this the right movie?"

There are plenty of humanitarian issues and some political issues and of course family ties discussed, but basically, the moral of the story is that life is short, so treasure your love ones before it's too late. However, today I was putting on a more logical cap than an emotional one, thus, I found that some of the scenes a little naive or impractical to apply in real-life. Parental guidance is highly recommended for children as little b indicated that he was very worried about the earth after watching (or experiencing) the full fledge natural disaster.

Anyway, this is one of the bigger action blockbusters for this year, and irregardless of my advice, you will just HAVE to get a glimpse of the special effects or CGIs or to experience the sound system.

Not much plagiarism this time. Just lame and weak ramblings as your sodding pathetic life.
We know all about you so don't try to be anything you are not.

DurianGal must be a sore looser. Fat, round and spiky at the wrong places.

Go get a life!

@Anti-Durian

I do have a life, thank you. Now why don't you go get a life yourself, you miserable interfering ninny? And get some help with your English as well, you incompetent fool. Can't you even spell loser correctly?

How did my comments to the blogger disrupt your pathetic life? Were they directed to you? Were you inflicted with pain due to it? What gives you the right to deem yourself worthy to retaliate for the blogger? Who died and made you bitch? In simpler words for your level: why are you such a nosey busybody?

Why don't you take your big fat vagina of a mouth elsewhere and bleed there instead, where you have no bloody business in.

I read with anger at the arrogance of DurianGal and her rude attitude against the whole world as though everyone owes her an explanation for the sad, bitter state that she's in.

@DurianGal, I am not sure what's your problem, but I am sure the world doesn't a self righteous, bullying bitch who goes around barking at any tree she sees. (And also pissing on them as any bitch would do as per their nature.)

What this world needs are more brave people like Anti-Durian who dares to stand up against bitter, self righteous bitches like DurianGal and put them back where they belong (i.e. their sad kennel).

Dear All,

DurianGal is NOT a Girl! It's a Shemale a.k.a Toy Boy or Lady Boy! Spike at the wrong place... that is why "it" is wasting its time here and there. Coz "it" is neither here nor there!

Go get a life!
