The film begins in year 2009, when there is a huge explosion on the surface of the sun. We then see Adrian Helmsley (Chiwetel Ejiofor), an American scientist, traveling to a copper mine in India to meet his friend, who discovered that Earth's temperature is increasing rapidly. He returns to Washington D.C. and submits a report to his supervisor, who immediately takes him to the president. In 2010, we see the President of the United States tell other heads of state the situation (the world is ending) and we also see billionaires all over the world buying plane tickets for untold sums of money. In 2011 the original of The Mona Lisa in the Louvre is replaced with a decoy, and is sealed away for unknown reasons.The story jumps ahead to 2012. Jackson Curtis (John Cusack), a divorced father who works as a limousine driver and writer, and his ex-wife, Kate Curtis (Amanda Peet), and children, Noah (Liam James) and Lily (Morgan Lily), who live with Kate's new boyfriend, Gordon (Thomas McCarthy). Jackson takes his children on a camping trip to Yellowstone, where he meets Charlie Frost, who hosts a radio segment that addresses the Mayans' prediction. Charlie mentions a map of where special ships are, but Jackson assumes he is a rambling drunk and leaves him. Kate and Gordon and in a super market buying groceries when the floor begins to crack and the supermarket is split in half. Jackson gets a call that he has to return from camping with the kids. Jackson arrives at the house and drops the kids off, and takes his limo to a job. He goes to the house of Russian billionaire Yuri Karpov. Jackson takes Yuri, his children and his girlfriend to the airport. The children make cruel comments to Jackson, and as they board the plane, they mention they have tickets to board the ships and Jackson doesn't. This leads Jackson to believe Charlie's story, and he rents a plane. Jackson hurries to Kate's house and picks up her, the kids, and Gordon as the house collapses and a massive earthquake begins. They drive through L.A while it is being destroyed and arrive just in time at the airport.When they get to Santa Monica Airport, the pilot that Jackson hires is killed by a falling structure. Kate mentions that Gordon knows how to fly (gordon protest's, he has only had a few lessons) so they tell him to fly the plane out of L.A. From the sky, we see L.A sinking into the Pacific Ocean. Jackson announces they have to get to Yellowstone to get the map from Charlie. They fly there and Jackson goes looking for Charlie. He finds his R.V and takes it out looking for Charlie, and he finds him at the top of a hill waiting for the impact. Charlie tells Jackson where the map is and he rushes back to the R.V as a massive explosion goes off, hurtling rocks in every direction. Jackson gets to the plane and they take off for China.The group lands in Las Vegas and they meet Yuri. Yuri's plane is damaged, but he and Sasha, Yuri's pilot, find a cargo plane that carries automobiles. Las Vegas is destroyed by earthquakes and ravaged by the impeding volcanic ash cloud of Yellowstone. Yuri has 2 children and his girlfriend with him.While in the air, the group learns that the plane does not have enough fuel to reach China: they've passed Honolulu, Hawaii, which has been inundated in lava. As they're about to ditch the plane they discover that they are no longer above the ocean: the Earth's crust has shifted thousands of miles and they are heading towards the Himalayas. During a crash landing on a glacier they manage to escape from the plane safely by using one of the luxury vehicles in cargo as a raft. The group ditches the car and a helicopter lands, they ask for tickets and Yuri shows his three tickets. He goes on the helicopters with his 2 children and leaves his girlfriend and the group behind.The group eventually find their way to the ships with the help of some locals and are smuggled aboard with the help of a Buddhist monk and a construction worker. Gordon dies as they board. Tsunamis begin to engulf the Indian peninsula, and a giant wave eventually reaches the ships, which turn out to be arks constructed to save the heads of state, hand-picked individuals chosen to repopulate the earth and the rich elite, who could afford to buy tickets. A massive flood is heading towards the ship, and due to a wire left by Jackson in the ships gate, the gate isnt able to close, and the engines arent able to start. Jackson manages to get the gates closed just in time, and the ships cruise off. A title appears that says Day 27 Month 01 Year 01. The group is living on the ark, and Jackson and Kate seem to have gotten back together. The captain of the ship learns that Africa was able to miss catastrophe and is safe to venture too. The ship heads for Africa, and a view from space shows all continents have moved together and are in the shape of Africa.。
西北民族大学全校性选修课期中考试《2012》英文影评Movie Review of the 2012《2012》is an exciting movie.The movie is very exciting one.This story told us the world would be destroyed in 2012 and some people of the world would be alive.The movie is amazing and the story is very adventurous.This play told us protecting the earth，preserving the environment，treasuring the life，which is our priority.《2012》gave me a lot of enlightenment，i hope you guys go to see this play.This is a very good movieMovie "2012" brought us, more than a visual shock, people said this story that nothing felt short of suspense, but in fact "2012" was a success, its success was not a simple use box-office income could generalize.At the end of the world comes, everyone has the right to choose and musts make a choice, when time forward to the end of the joys and sorrows.There, all once QingQiu have become orlakers-spurs finality, which has become the past, all forever at this moment have become all magging issues.it MiaoRan cloud and all the beautiful and ugly, success or failure at this moment also destined to lose its original meaning; We all mankind, as Charlie said in the movie, regardless of nationality or race, no matter the age or sex, no matter whether the ideal faith status, all will become small dust in the universe, with the whole world of all human beings once disguised, it also become the eternal history.Pessimistic say, "2012" reminds people of starting earlier ready to suicide. We always stay too much hope in the future, while ignoring the cherish all, but we can't predict what will be tomorrow, maybe the end of the world is a relatively more simple end, because anyone who don't have to bear any responsibility, who also won't give who leaving any regret, but the moment we think of death approached, it will let us know what is really important, what is the real meaning of survival.

Therefore, we should know how to cherish, and know more endeavor with meticulous care , even for leaves more happy memories to her so as to reduce pain during some doom has come to this. There will always be people who will at the end of the world in 2012 when remember up this blessing, calm down and gone forever, perhaps, is always present...。
转眼间，2021年还有两个月就结束了，2022年即将来到。
回顾过去的这十年，要说无人不知无人不晓的大事件，可能就是2012年闹得沸沸扬扬的“世界末日”啦！时光不会倒流，电影可以重温，今天为大家带来的就是2009年上映的《2012》。
关于玛雅人的多个版本预言中，有这样五个经常被提起：玛雅人预言未来会出现飞机和汽车，现在看来以及实现了；玛雅人准确预测了大魔王希特勒的出生时间和死亡时间；玛雅人预言了第一次世界大战和第二次世界大战的爆发；玛雅人预言自己这个民族最终会走向灭亡；玛雅人预言2012年12月21日是世界末日，当然目前已经2021年了，这个预言并没有成功。
故事的一开始，一个地质学家小黑艾德里安来到咖喱国的一个深达11000英尺，大概3300米的铜矿洞里，他的好朋友阿三告诉他，人类历史上最大的一次太阳暴引起了史无前例的最大中微子反应，而中微子又首次引起了物理反应，这些中微子变成了一种新的核粒子，它们正在给地核不断加温。
地球正在逐渐变成一个微波炉，地核的温度不断升高，大海咕噜咕噜沸腾着，人类即将被微波炉烤死。
小黑作为老美科技部地质方面的一位研究员，一看事情紧急，火速飞回美国，找到正在搞资金筹集酒会造诺亚方舟的胖子白宫幕僚长安休斯，皮了一下的胖子看了递上的文件后意识到事态的严重性，带着老黑就去见总统了。
接下来的故事大家应该很熟悉了，没错，老美又开始意淫扮演救世主的角色了。
咱们的解说到此结束——开个玩笑，咱们继续，毕竟作为一个类型片，影片还有无与伦比的特效加持呢！得知世界将要走到尽头的老美总统赶紧召开了G8会议，公布了调查结果。
而在西藏的邱明谷，当地老百姓正在被转移走，因为一些国家正在秘密联合研制并建造可以躲避这场灾难的诺亚方舟。
大概中国给世人的印象是制造业大国，又能集中力量干大事，所以诺亚这个大工程就是中国来完成了。
造方舟得要钱，10亿欧元一张的神秘船票开始悄悄售卖，像《蒙娜丽莎的微笑》这样文明的精华也悄悄被赝品所替代。
《2012》——在灾难中思考人类的未来“2012年12月21日黑暗降临后，12月22日的黎明永远不会到来。
”这就是这部电影的开幕词。
《2012》是一部关于全球毁灭的灾难电影，它讲述在2012年世界末日到来时，世界人民如何挣扎求生。
尽管故事老套，该片被称为《后天》的升级版，但是《2012》在全球105个国家和地区上映，首映当天全球票房就已达到两亿美元，周末三天全球票房总计达到2.25亿美元；2009年11月13~15日首映当周末北美票房6500万美元，位列当周末北美票房榜首位；全球累计票房9.5亿美元。
在《2012》导演找到了许多方法上地球毁灭影片中，几乎集中了电影史上所有灾难：洪水、地震、海啸、飓风、岩浆，大量体现人类文明的标志性建筑物像豆腐一样被自然的巨大力量碾碎，几乎是能想象到的人类灾难的极限。
而整部影片中让人印象最深刻的就是洛杉矶的消失。
整个城市就像泰坦尼克号那样先断裂再倾斜，最后下沉到太平洋里。
让观众印象深刻的是，滔天洪水跨过西藏的雪山，淹没了世界海拔最高的寺庙。
谁去谁留已然成为挑战整个人类的道德抉择。
面对灾难，来自不同国家的人类做出了最重要的抉择：“所有人都是平等的，都有平等的生存机会！”最后人类终于在方舟中度过了这一全球性的灾害，获得了继续繁衍和发展的希望。
事实上，好莱坞的灾难片数不胜数，类似《2012》的也不在少数，如《天地大冲撞》《后天》《龙卷风》《山崩地裂》、《完美风暴》、《海神号》、《独立日》等优秀灾难片。
而且，故事模式都几乎一成不变：灾难降临——社会恐慌——救世主出现——劫后余生。
所不同的是灾难主体变成地震、火山、洪水、陨石、外星入侵、病毒等，同时救世主要么是力挽狂澜好莱坞式英雄，要么是方舟式的避难所。
当然，灾难片中的灾难方式不可能是无中生有的，像自然灾害类型的灾难片都是将在现实世界中出现过的灾难进行夸大、糅合和嫁接；而人祸类型的灾难片是人们对科技、社会弊端的形象化和对自身未来担忧的物化；外来入侵类型的灾难片是人类对未知恐惧的集中体现。
