Behold, the mind-boggling movie that brought The Day After Tomorrow and Titanic to the minds of avid viewers has been released on the socially intrigued Friday the thirteenth, November of year 2009. If you haven't seen the movie, then this is a bit of a spoiler.
Fortunately, the movie does not start with endless talking in a room of god-knows-what with god-knows-who to focus on an "important" conversation between the characters of the movie. It immediately jumps on the main conflict, with the necessary connection to the study and background to ensure clarity. But here's a hitch, the movie is a bit too long, especially when you start imagining that there is a remote control where you can just press the forward button and find out the ending. The plot became a bit too bizzare for its own sake (although I give props to the visualization and special effects team). I would think that video game fanatics who enjoy driving cars to escape devastation would consider the movie to be amazing. A series of tsunamis take over the entire city in less than sixty seconds to a roaring suprise of a sea level reaching up to the peak of Mt. Everest; meanwhile, roads split apart to make way for the molten lava coming from beneath the Earth's surface while buildings fall like dominoes along with its people grab on to the nearest thing they could find in order to find the slightest chance of survival--which is closest to none.
Nonetheless, the movie conveyed some morals. The story writer also focused on the personal connection between the characters to reach out to the readers as human beings. It was a bit too predictable for me, but I have to admit, it was still a job well done.
