2012: Ice Age

We watch a lot of movies - and I exaggerate not here. I would comfortably say we average two to three new films per day. Yay for the internet! So, understandably, we get our fair share of bad movies.

The best thing I can say about this film is that I didn't shut it off midway. Perhaps I was curious at what point it would get worse, or maybe I was holding out for some glimmer of authenticity. Sadly, it only got worse as it progressed.

The special effects were pathetic. With all the tech available for free download, this could have been way better. Plausibility? Of course, with any "disaster" genre flick, you have to suspend reality at some point so as not to throw the plot vehicle off the road - but this went beyond suspension - it was more like some horrible whacked out nightmare complete with somewhat incoherent sequences and sudden strange happenings that make no sense at all. Nothing is ever explained, probably because most things can't be since they are just impossible.

You can see all the base elements of the story ripped right from "The Day After Tomorrow", but the fun stops there.

So - I won't pick on specific scenes or elements (ha ha) so as not to spoil the film (errr... yeah.), but lets just leave it at... I didn't shut it off.

If you want a good disaster film, I would definitely look elsewhere, because this disaster is not the "Giant Glacier", its the whole movie itself. So bad its not even funny. *sigh*

I was expecting the movie to be similar to "The day after tomorrow" or "2012", but the actors are horrible, the script is bad and the storyline isn't new.

You get irritated by the characters right off the start. Some movies are bad in a way that it become fun to watch, but this one is just bad.

Overall, I didn't enjoyed it because I didn't like you but merely because the movie itself is an empty shell. Characters were badly developed making you wanting them to die at the beginning. Also they focus too much on the characters rather on the actual event. So for those wanting to see The Day after Tomorrow style of movies, you be very disappointed.

You being warned.

+1 for effort +1 for video quality +1 for sound quality

I have just endured "2012: Ice Age" and, as suggested above, I feel that I have wasted my time. Don't get me wrong, some of the scenes in it were quite cool; it's just a pity that they were ripped from other films! The acting was stilted, the dialogue was inane, the casting was what I can only presume as being last minute (I mean, really! Would the son's attitude have been more appropriate if he had been 7 instead of 17???) and the FX were very trapped in the early part of the last decade. If I had a choice between watching this movie again with the associated risk of my brain melting out through my ears to avoid the trauma of "2012: Ice Age" or being caught under a glacier, I would gladly strip to my tighty-whitey's and dive underneath that big boy.

Please, don't insult your intelligence as I have just done. Avoid this movie like it was your mother-in-law.

This has got to be one of the worlds worst movies of all time… The main characters specifically the dad and mom have got to be the worst actors ever….and the director needs his a** kicked..so many screw ups and the editing is a nightmare…one minute the family is on a snow covered road with no traffic then they get a phone signal and pull over on a non snowy road with traffic going by them….just one of the many many things…....I mean the storyline is a good one but the they should at least cast actors that ...well....can actually act......

I think I could have edited this better with Windows movie maker.....complete trash!!

Within the first five minutes the father establishes himself as the single least likable person on earth. A few minutes later we learn this out of shape obnoxious jerk is married to a former Playboy Playmate (MCCullough), so we know we know we are deep in male fantasy territory here. We then learn he has the know-it-all son and estranged teenage daughter required in all Asylum movies, implying he had sex with said Playboy Playmate at least twice. Our worst fears are confirmed. This isn't merely a teenage male fantasy, but a cartoon.

What follows is cartoon level idiocy of the highest order. The coyote and roadrunner is more believable. I won't spoil the ending, but if the "actors" lived through it you wouldn't know it by their reactions. I cannot imagine what a casting session for these films must be like. Where do they find these people?

No stars.
