Awful writing, acting, quite good effects, but it just goes ON and ON and ONNNN

After fifteen minutes or so I was cheering for the solar flares, tsunamis, and the earth's unstable core. Kill the humans! Kill all of them!

Yeah, with a cast like this (and a movie this boring), it's easy to root for the disaster over the survivors, since if the disaster wins, you'll be rid of John Cusack and the movie will be over.

three months pass...

Rented this on Blu-ray and have to be honest... It's AWESOME. Loved the ships and several of the 'ride' scenes (no matter how ridiculous). Everything else was serviceable. Cusak looked constipated which was also entertaining.

Haha I saw 5 minutes of this when I was in line at Best Buy the other day and thought it looked far worse than I could have even imagined. The CGI just looked laughable.

this managed to be both terrible and weirdly dread inducing

We just watched this. I couldn't believe I *wasn't* meant to laugh all the way through it, tbh. As a spoof of all disaster movies ever, it was top notch.

i started watching this a while back but as soon as john cusack came onscreen i was just like 'fuck it, life's too short' and turned it off

Really so silly. I saw this, actually enjoyed it, and yet when i try and think back to the movie, it just seems like the entire 2 hours was slow motion shots of the bus driving off an endlessly collapsing cliff with explosions behind it.

Nah, that was pretty much it. Ooh, it also had a moment of dubious racism as well, when Thandie Newton and Chiwetel Ejiofor were queuing to get on the arks. Yer man from The West Wing was explaining that the guys to be saved had been chosen to be the best genetic material to repopulate the earth, accompanied by shots of cute photogenic passengers. Cut to two Arab sheikh chaps, penny drops "these people aren't good genetic material, they're just RICH!".

It really does help to think of it as a spoof. We nearly lost it when Cusack's hand appeared out of the crack at Yellowstone Airport and then he RAN AFTER THE PLANE AND CAUGHT UP WITH IT!
