Los científicos descubren que el planeta tierra está sufriendo cambios tanto en la corteza terrestre, y también un aumento de temperatura que genera colapso.

   Greetings! I hope you are all doing well and having a happy Saturday. Yesterday, while waiting for the power to come back on, I watched something on my phone to keep from getting bored, so I’m sharing a review of the movie 2012. Released in 2009 with a runtime of 158 minutes, it is a science fiction film about a catastrophe that brings about the end of the world. Scientists discover that Earth is undergoing changes in its crust, as well as a rise in temperature that leads to a global collapse.

   La inestabilidad de las placas tectónicas ha generado grandes terremotos sobre pasando los 9.5 hasta 10.9 en la escala de Richter afectando también la falla de San Andrés, esto generó catástrofes naturales como tsunamis que acabaron con ciudades enteras, lo que comenzó siendo una profecía para muchos se convirtió en la realidad, personas adineradas comenzaron a pagar puestos de millones de dólares para salvar su vida en construcciones enormes como un arca capaz de transportar tantos personas y animales.

   Tectonic plate instability has triggered massive earthquakes—ranging from 9.5 to 10.9 on the Richter scale—that also affected the San Andreas Fault. These events caused natural catastrophes, such as tsunamis that wiped out entire cities; what began as a prophecy for many became a reality, prompting wealthy individuals to pay millions of dollars to secure a place in massive structures—akin to an ark—designed to transport large numbers of people and animals.

   Entre los personajes principales tenemos al geólogo Adrian Helmsley un científico que está al tanto de los acontecimientos que van a pasar en el mundo, para mí fué una persona noble ya que se preocupó por su familia, amigos y demás personas que corrían peligro mientras que otros solo pensaron en salvar su propia vida, esto es algo que podría ocurrir entre la desesperación y miedo de morir, el señor Jackson Curtis que trabaja como chofer e intenta salvar la vida de su familia, y Charlie Frost un alocado locutor que advierte el fin del mundo pero nadie cree en él, así que no estaba loco.

   Among the main characters, we have geologist Adrian Helmsley, a scientist aware of the events about to unfold worldwide; to me, he was a noble person who cared about his family, friends, and others in danger—unlike those who thought only of saving their own lives, a reaction that is understandable amidst the desperation and fear of death. Then there is Mr. Jackson Curtis, a chauffeur trying to save his family, and Charlie Frost, an eccentric radio host who warns of the end of the world but is disbelieved by everyone—proving, in the end, that he wasn't crazy.

   Miles de personas de diferentes religiones se reunieron a orar, recordando que en la biblia también está escrito el día del juicio final, una de las cosas que me gustó es que a pesar de que habían personas avariciosas, egoístas que solo pensaron en ellos, también estaban aquellas que tendieron la ayuda a las personas que estaban fuera del arca y que podían morir si no abría la compuerta, como el geólogo que hizo mención a la frase del libro de Jackson Curtis incluso los grandes líderes mundiales apoyaron la idea, salvar a la humanidad también sería parte de su legado.

   Thousands of people from different faiths gathered to pray, mindful of the biblical account of Judgment Day. One aspect I appreciated was that, alongside the greedy and selfish individuals who thought only of themselves, there were others who reached out to help those stranded outside the ark—people who faced certain death unless the hatch was opened. This included the geologist who referenced a line from Jackson Curtis’s book; even world leaders supported the idea, recognizing that saving humanity would also be part of their legacy.

   Lo que no me gustó es que los efectos especiales se notaban muy exagerados a como yo creería que sería el fin del mundo, la película tiene una duración larga y siento que tardaron mucho contando la historia de las vidas de los personajes principales, pero si es bien interesante y me gustaría que le echarás un vistazo a ver qué tal. Gracias por leer.

   What I didn't like was that the special effects seemed very exaggerated compared to how I imagine the end of the world would actually look; the movie is quite long, and I feel they spent too much time telling the backstories of the main characters. Still, it is very interesting, and I’d like you to check it out and see what you think. Thanks for reading.

   A long time ago, there was a rumor about a Mayan prophecy that foretold the end of the world as we know it. No one knew how it would happen, but many believed that everything would end in 2012... And it didn't. That prophecy was debunked, but the fame it gained in those years gave us what I consider the best disaster movie of all time.

   Directed by Roland Emmerich, "2012" is a film that took the famous Mayan calendar prophecy about the announced end of the world and turned it into a spectacle of global destruction never before seen in the film industry. It was released in 2009, just three years before the already debunked supposed last year of humanity. This movie doesn't shine as a narrative masterpiece but for its visual effects designed to keep the action nonstop.

   The story follows Jackson Curtis (John Cusack), a writer and family man who discovers, thanks to meeting a peculiar man, that there is a conspiracy to cover up the fact that the Earth's core is rapidly overheating, which will cause an inevitable and imminent cataclysm.

   Once the truth is revealed, the movie turns into a frantic race against time for survival. Jackson must cross a continent literally crumbling beneath his feet to try to get his family to a safe place. But faced with natural disasters like volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and tsunamis that wipe out entire countries, there aren't many places to run or hide.

   The film’s level of global devastation exceeds expectations; to this day, I haven’t seen anything else with such luxurious detail. But more than just a fireworks display, what always captivates me about this work is the suspense it maintains while handling the narrative of an entire planet in crisis.

   Humanity tends to make extreme decisions when despair prevails, and in life-or-death situations on a global scale, the film questions moral boundaries in matters of survival. For example: In the movie, to avoid panic, the world's governments hide the truth until it's too late. And instead of taking measures to save most of the population, they decide to secure the lives of politicians, millionaires, celebrities, and influential people with excess money. The leaders in that fictional world chose to save a small fraction of humanity believing it was right for the future of a new world. How true is that narrative?

   Honestly, the message of this movie is powerful but at the same time devastating. The framework of what is human and civilized breaks down under the idea of extinction. Fear tests convictions and makes us commit ruthless acts. Whenever I watch this story, I focus on the actions of the characters, specifically the secondary characters caught in the middle of such a massive crisis.

   SOURCE

   But as I mentioned earlier, "2012" has stood out for its visuals, I can't deny it, the sequences of Los Angeles sinking into the Pacific Ocean or the Yellowstone supervolcano erupting are now landmarks in disaster cinema.

   Emmerich knew exactly how to destroy the planet with style, and that deserves applause. I don’t think you need to know much more; it’s a movie with relentless pace; once the Earth’s crust starts fracturing, the action barely gives you a moment to process the end of the world you know before plunging you into spectacular chaos.

   "2012" is the pinnacle of modern disaster films. It’s a movie that will make you deeply reflect on the morality of civilization, and it perfectly delivers what it promises: the total destruction of the world in the most spectacular way possible. Just enjoy a ride full of adrenaline and chaos.
