This is a bad film.

The plot is the most idiotic thing I remember watching in a long time.

The "god message" takes form after 15 minutes of watching, so you end up waiting just one more minute because you just cant believe what you're seeing.

There's some amazing bad acting going on, like people talking in panic for almost no reason, or doing the most absurd things. Even plain cell phones work in the jungle.

Its a film made for people with short horizons and no brains. Its an excuse to spread the "word of god". And its done in the dumbest, lamest, least appealing way.

...and I do love all genres of cinema.

I hope the makers of this movie are happy, they made me waste 1,5 hours of my life a left me puzzled with greatest question of all time: will there ever be a movie thats worse then this? I have to say I started watching this movie with skeptic thoughts in my mind, but not even in my worst nightmares would I have seen what was before me. The dialog is a waste of breath, they could have had "Band X" play random songs for 1,5 hours on top of the movie instead of the dialog and it would have made exactly the same amount of sense. The special effects are like from the 80-s, and even then they would have been below average, the acting is below zero. This movie was actually so bad it forced me to register to IMDb so I could rant about it so at least it achieved something good. The only time I could recommend spending time with this movie is ... well lets face it: never.

Its a doomsday not for the all humankind but to the ill fated ones who are doomed to watch it. A real disaster starting from misguided storyline,dumb acting,pathetic dialogues and supreme bad direction. The dialogues are real crap. one is "The world is falling apart and so i want to know you are safe"..And the special effects reminds me of some late seventies movies .I mean some of them had much better effects. Starts with doomsday countdown of your patience and unlike the world's fate (saved of course by talking to god )u are out of any patience. Uff pathetic.. give me back my lost 90 minutes.. I am planning to invest in inventing time travel to get it back.. Never ever watch it..if u dare u will have your doomsday...

I couldn't spoil anything because there is nothing to spoil. Words could not convey the ......... of this film. You see I can't even find a word to say how bad it is. I can't believe when they were making the film or even writing it, that they couldn't see they were making a mistake. The actors seem to be trying to act as badly as possible. The story line is right out of the Sunday morning Davy and Goliath writers trash bin. You can't say this film is good for nothing, it can always be used as a good example of a bad film.When I think of the money lost and the time I wasted I want to cry. If the story is true, they should have spared us and released it on 12-25-2012

When i first started watching this movie I taught to myself "how bad can it be?! it will be at least a decent watchable movie .." . I was wrong .

This movie is just horrible . Everything in it is badly done , including the acting . I doubt there is one thing anyone will like about this movie . I can even say it is the worst movie I have seen in my entire life ! I have never rated a movie with 1 until now.

I just want to know : was this a low budget movie ? Because if it was I would somehow understand why I was put trough this horror of watching this movie . Special effects are like in the '50s , the acting is like of 10 year old kids , the attention to details is non existent , the background sound is probably from another movie . And this is only the stuff i can think about now .

I wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone , not even the people i hate .. If you think of watching this movie DON'T ! Skip directly to "Cloverfield" if you want to see a new good action movie . I know i should have done the same !

Features of this movie: bad acting , visual effects made with a home PC, bad directing, useless talk scenes, bad screenplay, bad dialogs (where the writers on strike?! - actually they were... and you can tell!), fake rain made with a bunch of shower heads, very bad casting and totally random music.

With a decent cast, screenwriters and a director, it would have been a 7+ movie. This looks like something you can make with your friends, a PC and a handy-cam. Actually NO, I've seen much better short films on Youtube. Total waste of my time. This movie is even worst then 'The Helix... Loaded'.

Don't bother. Complete waste of time with no redeeming features. Some of the effects are passable I suppose, but the scrip and the wooden acting combined with the mixed mess of the basic religious undertones...yuck.

The music sucks, the pacing sucks, read the other comments and stay far away, the only reason to watch this would be with a few friends, some beer and for free as something to laugh at.

Silly string rain, computer graphics probably done in paint, text overlays with typing noise, generic characters,silly string used as "rain" text cant really express just how bad this thing is.

This film is the worst piece of biblical garbage i have ever seen. I really wish that i had looked it up on here first to save myself the pain of watching it. The acting is horrible, and the story is even worse. The CG parts are trash, not even suitable for those "TV movies" that they make for the sole purpose for TV, like the Poseidon adventure that was on NBC. However, at least that movie had a suitable storyline to make up for the bad acting and unsatisfying graphics. I would gladly be forced to watch black and white TV for the remainder of my life than have to watch this piece of trash again. Sorry to all you believers out there...

This movie promises something interesting but just delivers Christian religious propaganda, poor CGI effects, far-from-good actors and a very cliché story.

I'm really unable to understand why people would spend money to film a movie like that, it's a waste of money, just it. Perhaps some people gets some nice tax reduction investing in films like that because I doubt it makes enough money to worth the trouble.

If you want some religious propaganda plus wasting your time and money, feel free to rent/buy and watch this movie. I you want a good advise, rent another movie and never think about this one, even if it's in the bargain basket.

I was looking for some information on the "official" 2012 movie when I found out about 2012 Doomsday, I was an atheist, but when I read about it, I knew I had to watch it. The next day I found a place I could rent it, with the DVD in my hands, I walked home and started watching it. I was halfway through it when my parents walked in and my dad said "Why are you watching this? Are you becoming a Christian? Son, I am disappoint". He left the room and I finally could finish watching it, I though about it for days, the arguments to prove god's existence used in the movie where far more superior than the ones used by atheists, my life was changed, I decided to tell the world I was a new person, I started going to church every Sunday and reading the Bible every day, my parents didn't know about it, I didn't wanna tell them because they are the anti-Christians type of atheists. But one day a friend from church called, I wasn't home, so my dad picked up the phone and asked him if he wanted to leave a message, he said: "Yes, please, can you can ask him if he is going to watch the church choir tomorrow?", my dad said "OK" and hung up the phone. When I got home, my parents asked me all about it, I told them the truth and my mom got scared, she said "You moving with your Christian uncle in Bel-Air". I whistled for a cab and when it came near, the license plate said "Christ" and it had a cross in the mirror, if anything I could say that this cab is blessed, I said "Nah, forget it, please, lover of god, to Bel-Air". I pulled up to the house about seven or eight and I yelled to the cabby "Sir, God bless you", I looked at God's kingdom, I was finally there, to sit by God's throne as the pastor of Bel-Air.

I know why this movie which I enjoyed a lot received only a 1.8 rating and that is because most of the people who reviewed it are I'm very sorry to say ignorant atheists and so didn't like it because it was sort of a religious drama and not the action/thriller they thought it was also there was no bad language or adult situations like sex or drug taking or people killing people. I feel sorry for them and pray for their souls. You don't see air but you feel it and you breathe it so it's there right? So why have you stopped believing just because some religious documents sound untrue. What a bunch we live with. I usually do not watch anything that Asylum, has done or has it's hands on but this was a very enjoyable movie well worth a look for us believers.

Should have been alerted by the "Christian Epic" reference, thought it was an apocalyptic movie in the line of the 7th Sign. It indeed deals with the end of the world and the usual heroes that somehow convince God through some ordeal that He should let us apes live a little longer. But where movies like the 7th Seal grip you by script and acting, this one will bore you to tears. Acting is awful, the dialogs are out of bad evangelical early morning TV, plot and subplot lines make no sense at all. You'll need a lobotomy to watch this one with anything other than utter boredom and a sense that Armageddon must indeed be near for something like this to be thought of, let alone be produced.

Movies could not get worse, in fact I am the lazy kind and never register on the sites. This movie was so bad it has forced me to register. I was not the only one who registered into IMDb.com found at least one more person who felt like me.

If it did not have 2012 in the tile I would not have bothered.

* bad acting * bad direction * stupid story line * the location / time information (usually in the beginning of the movie) over used * awesome scientist theories

Anyway, the stupidity of having a Christian connection to the Mayan prophecy is weak. I have seen better direction/acting/screenplay and plots in XXX movies

If you were the filmmaker's mother and the offspring of some sort of DNA cataclysm and if you think of yourself as an intellectual Christian who does not need to read in order to know what is and if you dislike all those sinners who do not subscribe to your interpretation of your holy book and if you only believe the truths espoused by your pastor (Billy-Bob-Ed-Tim-Fred) down to the corner in the back of the gas station and if you think Ed Wood was a true master and if you were recently put into a clothes dryer down to the laundrymat for a few hours -- then you might well be able to somehow find something maybe a little bit worthwhile or at least unrepugnant about this film.

Otherwise you probably won't like it much at all.

The real doomsday isn't 21 December 2012. It's sometime after five minutes of watching this movie. Sometimes you think, nah, it can't be that bad. There must be some cosmic joke behind it if I can just find the key and laugh along. Unfortunately, there is none. It's just inexorably bad. Peoples' actions seem completely unmotivated by any known psychology. This movie looks like it was directed and then edited by people who had never seen a real movie before. The effect is a bit weird, as if we're not sure we're watching a movie or something else. Possibly, some sort of preachy fundamentalist propaganda about the End of the Days by Oral Roberts University film school alumnae? Who cares. Not one redeeming feature; even good looking actors as potential eye candy are underused here. Do not watch.

This movie is the most hilarious movie I've seen since "the Omega Code",and that is saying a lot. Ed Wood himself could not have made this movie any better! The perfect combination of a ridiculous premise, bad dialog, bad acting, low budget and no continuity to boot. A Mayan temple that must be reached for no apparent reason. A missionary working in Mexico who can't speak Spanish with her voyeuristic counterpart and his giant camera. A panic-ed paramedic and her spooky mother. A Indiana Jones wannabe and his estranged wife with a weird accent. A some doofus whose supposed to be working for an unknown government agency in what looks like office suite you'd rent at Kinkos overlooking the entire mess. The Lord is laughing at "Doomday 2012"! Laugh out loud, doubled over, gasping for breathe hilarity. I highly recommend this film. Warning: your stomach muscles will hurt for two days after viewing "Doomsday 2012".

It seems to me that the vast majority of the so-called 'reviews' of this movie are people just 'having a go' at Christians - little wonder that Islam Is taking over the world while ever people from Christian countries attack their own faith!Why can't people rate this Movie on It's acting,special effects and photography Instead of using It as an excuse to attack Christians? Considering the relatively tiny budget of just £250k, this Isn't a bad job at all. Of course It's far fetched - but people love films like The Matrix,Mars attacks and similar stuff which are laughably stupid and unbelievable - but entertaining despite that.There's a lot of hypocrites about,In other words. The special effects are good - again,considering the budget - and Cliff De Young Is a damn good actor, just take a look at the many films he's been In! Okay,so the films premise Is silly,but as I say, most of the highest-rated movies of all time have a ridiculous and unbelievable storyline. The many Christian churches - Protestantism,Catholicism,Baptists,Wesleyan,Coptic,Orthodox,Mormons, witnesses and hundreds more - serve only to confuse the Issue. All organised religion Is false - Jesus tells us himself through Matthew In the new testament that those who pray In churches are Hypocrites - one should pray alone,In private,In ones 'chamber'(bedroom or other private place).Reading the book of Matthew reveals the one truth about Christianity - be good,be nice to people,pray for forgiveness of your sins each day - and THAT'S IT! Remember - MEN have created organised religion\churches, NOT Jesus! Neither did Jesus suggest as much - as he himself said,those who attend church expecting to be 'forgiven' have already blown their chance of redemption,likewise those who give 'charity' by having their picture taken whilst handing over those big cardboard cheques will be shunned by God - Alms(charity) should be given In private,known only to the giver,the receiver and God. Jesus makes It absolutely clear In Matthew that ones relationship with Christ and God Is a private matter for each Individual. DON'T SHUN Christianity BECAUSE OF ORGANISED RELIGION - YOU DO NOT HAVE TO JOIN ANY CHURCH TO BE A 'GOOD' Christian!! Read Matthew In the authorised(King James) bible and make up your own mind. Don't laugh at Christians because of the silly story to this film.

I felt I was cheated after I finished this film. So I googled this film and I found out it's one of the

Worst movie. I read these comments on IMDb. Some of them are really funny. i didn't have fun with this film, but i

enjoy reading the comments on this film. Just like one comment says, "You can't say this film is good for

nothing, it can always be used as a good example of a bad film". To me, it caused some funny comments. And just as another comment says, "I have never commented on a film, but I registered in this web to vent

my frustration. I registered in this web to share the pleasure to read all these great comments on this

film.
