I guess the same could be said for any post-apocalypse genre movie, then. This one I didn't feel robbed afterwards. I usually do after anything with Jake Gyllenhaal in it, with the possible exception of Brokeback Mountain, where his abominable acting 'skills' were shadowed by a good script, good direction, and 3 other actors worth a damn. He's the Ralph Macchio of today.

2012 was just awful. It was in a weird middle ground where it was trying to be sort of realistic but the cg mixed with the situations made it not even close but it wasn't SO over the top that it was laughable. I wouldn't watch it again.

I'm confused. What exactly did either one of you expect walking into that movie? I expected over the top disaster effects with earthquakes, floods, explosions and the like, and felt just fine about what I got. I guess our expectations were just...different.

I expected nothing. It wasn't bad, just not worth the price of admission. What's so hard to swallow about that?
You enjoyed it, I enjoyed the majority of it. But will not call it a must-see movie by no stretch of the imagination. We differ, leave it right there.

Not a must-see. Just not a must-not-see.

I didn't expect for it to take 45 minutes for the first special effect. I counted.

Just saw that little sneak preview thing fox did a while back about Avatar. The technology behind it is VERY impressive. I knew about some of how it worked but this little sneak peak really showed a lot. Crazy stuff going on behind the scenes.

2010 is going to be one of the better movie years in recent memory.

personally I think Up is overrated. "The journey" becomes chase scenes after chase scenes and in the end I don't even know if it's a story of the old man or the other old man or the kid, it's kind of mashed up together.
also, people said it has the saddest 10 mins movie opening but I thought it was the happiest (they lived happily together until the end, not like she suddenly died).
It could have been a lot better, story-wise :\

I sort of agree. Story wise I think it was one of their weaker films.
