2012:DoomsDay

Looking over the many full shelves at Blockbuster, I came across this movie, 2012:Doomsday.  Well once in a while I feel the need to watch a movie about the Apocalypse.  So this one, being a newly released movie, was right up my alley.

What a disappointment. First if you have tan skin and an accent you die.  If you are white with bleach blonde hair, you live.  Then, where was the research?  Sometimes research is required; especially if you are using land marks like Chitzen Itza. A person who wants to watch the movie might know something about the Mayan human sacrifices at that location, which I think Christ would not participate in. 

On the cover of the back of the movie it states that this movie was like Left Behind and The Omega Code    I have seen both of those, good movies and have to disagree with the advertising.  This movie does not hold a candle to Kirk Cameron's version of the best selling novels.  I loved that movie.  It was well made and thoughtful.  It had good research.

Left Behind is worth the time to sit down and watch, even if you are not a believer in the dogma.

Do not waste your time, like I did.  This was a bad movie.
