If you haven't seen the end of the world thriller "2012," then hopefully this review will convince you to. I'll tell you up front that this movie is definitely worth seeing, and will be well worth you money. By the end of this article, you'll understand why. This movie, of course, is based on the prediction that the world will end in 2012. While that may be true, hopefully you'll read this article before then.

Overall, this is a great disaster movie filled with great special effects, and human drama. It does have a bit of a moral message that wouldn't seem disagreeable to too many people, but the overall story is entertaining and doesn't slow at any point during the movie. It' keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very end.

The movie begins with a couple of scientists, one working for the U.S. government, who discover some troubling data suggesting that the earth only has a few years left before global catastrophe strikes. We aren't sure what is going to happen, but we know that it is deadly serious. So much so the world governments engage in secret planning to prevent global panic.

While the government works on their plan to save what they think they can, we meet the main characters and see how they deal with the problem as it manifests itself. As the government has kept it secret, they are left to figure out what is happening on their own. Some figure out what to do in time to save themselves, others must accept their impending doom.

In order to really get a feel for the characters loss, we are introduced to several upstanding and likable characters, and see how they deal with the knowledge that their world is ending, without being able to do anything about it.

The overall moral message of this movie is that only by working together can humans survive any cataclysmic earth changing event. One troubling element is that in order to survive, various private investors needed to pay billions of dollars to create the vehicle for survival. This was overcome in the end, when they allowed the blue collar workers to be saved along with wealthy. And as in the story of Noah's Ark, the surviving cast found a place to start human life anew. All in all, this movie comes recommended with four out of five stars.
