I heard a lady sharing her first comment to her friend That dog sure was ugly. What else was there to say? After a while I found outThe action was truly formidable. demonstrating the power of mother nature. Collapsing buildings, jumping flaming cars, planes falling down and manage to pull up a second before touchdown, it was a real trip and a feast for the eyes and ears. But then again the acting wasnt that good, a bit over the top. In one scene in the movie, where every wasted second could be the cause of a terrible disaster, waste their time beingROMANTIC! At times like that the acting became very juicy, making me think I was watching Titanic instead. One point of advise Do not take this movie too seriously. Its almost stuffed with jokes instead of showing us the real drama of an earth that is about to be destroyed. But keep this in mind and youll have a heck of a 2 hours and 40 minutes(!) in a movie that is made for the cinema. 看完这部电影.我真的需要时间来找出想起来了,我听到有一位女士,她的第一个评论分享她的朋友这肯定是丑陋的狗,在那里还有什么要说?过了一会儿,我发现了这项行动是真正的强大,显示了权力大自然,观后感《2012英文观后感》.建筑物倒塌,跳跃燃烧的汽车,飞机掉下来,并设法拉动第二个着陆前,它是一个真正的旅行,为的眼睛和耳朵一场盛宴, 但是有一次署理是不是很好,比最高位在电影中的一个,现场每浪费第二可能是一个可怕的灾难的原因,他们浪费自己的时间是浪漫在像倍署理变得非常多汁,使我觉得我在看泰坦尼克号代替, 其中提醒一点不要把这部电影看得太重,这几乎塞满了,而不是显示我们是一个即将毁灭地球的真正的戏剧笑话,但是要记住这一点,你将有一个2小时40分钟赫克在一个是为电影所作的电影.这部片子,几乎集中了灾难片的所有元素,特大地震,超级火山,超级海啸,毁灭整个人类的大洪水,陆地的下沉与崛起,地球磁场的倒转,城市的毁灭,无助的人群,可能是我见闻有限,反正能把这么多灾难元素集中中在一起的灾难大片,记忆中好像没有,大概上世纪八十年代的日本电影《日本沉没》,灾难元素的集中度稍可与《2012》相提并论,但也远远不及,场面与特效更不能同日而语.看这部影片,你很少能有平静观看的时候,眼睛里随时都是惊天大灾难,所有的思维都在随着影片故事情节和主人公的命运在转动. 但这些,只是让我激动的理由,而不是让我感动的理由 我的感动,来自于片中的那种人性的光辉.人性,这个词用于评论电影实在是太多了,多到了泛滥,但我还是要说,这部片子,最让我感动的,是人性.这种人性,是博大宽广,是勇于付出,是为了他人而不惜牺牲自己的生命,而不是狭隘自我,不是自私自利,不是人不为己天诛地灭. 在《2012》里,我可以看到人类生命和人类文明的脆弱,那么健美的身躯,那么精美的建筑,那么温情的感情,在大自然狂暴的力量面前,显得如此无力,几秒钟,或者几分钟,在地震、火山、海啸、超级洪灾面前,都消失的无影无踪.但我也看见,无论是在什么样巨大的自然力量面前,人类,或者说作为人类代表的影片主人公一家,还有那些上到国家领导人下到平民百姓的人,都在灾难面前表现出了人类的尊严.美国总统在灾难注定来临的时刻,选择留在美国与自己的人民在一起直到最后时刻,船长不愿丢下正在沉没的船,这是他高贵的选择,影片中那位美国官员对总统的评价,我完全赞成.在超级洪水袭来的最后时刻,那些掌握着方舟外几万人命运的全世界各个国家的领导人们,在瑞得里安博士我们都是人类的一份子,人类的文明就在与互相帮助创造更加美好的明天,如果我们今天放弃他们,那么即使我们生存下来,我们怎么去面对自己的孩子,孩子们又怎么去面对他们的孩子的激切演说下,一致同意打开方舟大门,无数人欢呼着冲进方舟.那一刻,不管是是什么人,不管是什么政治立场,我想,都会在心中刻下一丝温馨. 而那些普通人,他们为了自己的生存而作出的奋斗和努力,更值得我们投以尊敬的目光.男主角杰克,为了让自己的一家人得到进入方舟的船票,驾着车疯狂地跑,从黄石国家公园跑到了拉斯维加斯的机场,在漫天黄石公园火山爆发的巨大烟火中找到沉迷于要和地球共存亡并且快死了都不忘记自己是第一个宣布地球完蛋的那个疯狂家伙,又在陷入巨大的裂缝后爬出来追上正在起飞的飞机,经过了飞机原本说要在中国南海迫降最后却在中国西藏降落的戏剧性经历,终于在那位好心的中国方舟工作人员天庆的帮助下全家进入了方舟.当杰克在影片最后,终于解除了方舟尾部的机械故障使得方舟顺利开动,一家人悲喜交集拥抱在一起的一刻,我想,作为平凡人的杰克,在这样的巨大灾难面前表现出来的同样巨大的勇气,应该说不上是为了什么全人类的共同利益（即使他的做法恰好做到了这点）.他和瑞得里安博士不同,博士确实是一个全人类共同利益至上的理想主义人物,而杰克,在寻常时期在一个为生活而奔波的小人物,在危险来临时,他的无比勇敢和智慧,都只是为了自己的亲人.但谁能说,即使只是为了自己的亲人,他的这一切举动就不值得我们感动,并且值得我们向他致敬呢?又有谁能说,他的一切举动,不是博大宽广、勇于付出和为了他人而不惜牺牲自己生命的光辉人性呢?
B. 2012英文电影影评
007第一集，大反派诺博士是个中国人，这部电影上映于1962年的10月5日，之后15天，中印边境冲突爆发，4年之后，文革中的中国进一步封闭了自己，谜一般的红色风暴自东方而起，席卷了整个世界，而那些嘶喊吼叫着的左派学生们其实并不知道当时的中国在发生着什么。
文革过去33年了，西方人眼中的中国是什么样子？这个问题始终挑动着所有中国人的心，我们就如同一个少年，有着让人自豪的成绩，也有着不可忽略的缺点，毛躁地期待着，期待着所有人都为那些成绩喝彩，所有人都放过那些缺点。我们在每一部大片中寻找着中国的影子，在每一个应该有大国出现的大场面中寻找那红色的旗帜，在每一次世界面临奇思异想的灭顶之灾时都期盼着中国的出现。我们等来的是什么呢？是破旧野蛮如集中营一样的监狱，是中国熊猫的美式减肥之旅，是旧式的军服和冷酷的军人，是挥金如土的黑帮富商，是质朴善良却吃不饱的人民。我们是如此在意西方媒体对我们的看法，所以《参考消息》销量甚高；我们是如此在意好莱坞镜头里的中国是怎么样的，所以在失望后我们愤怒，我们谩骂，我们沮丧。
好像一个少年，用穿着球鞋的脚踢着街边的垃圾桶，发泄着他看似有理却其实无关紧要的愤怒：这一切，都是成长的烦恼而已。
何必在意好莱坞镜头里的中国是什么样呢？不需要在陨石撞击地球之前拉着中国也发射核弹，我们知道自己能毁灭世界；不需要让蝙蝠侠在香港跳来跳去，我们知道自己有摩天大厦；不需要一个外国导演的感动，我们知道在2008年的5月，汶川、映秀、北川闪耀着怎样的光辉，那光辉足以在人类不长的历史上留下璀璨的一点。不需要，其实我们从来都不需要好莱坞的肯定和西方世界的赞赏，我们有《南方周末》，有简光洲，有卢广，有×××，有×××（请随意填空，只要可能被豆瓣删除的人名都符合条件），我们能够发现自己的问题，我们也有有勇气说出这些问题的勇敢同胞。
但是——是的——没错，如同那个少年一样，我们希望那肥大的校服能够衬出自己一下子蹿高了8公分的身材；我们希望那千篇一律的、人人一样的发型能够有点变化；我们希望自己成为同龄人中最有魅力的那一个——尤其是和西南角那个黑乎乎的表弟相比；当然，我们最希望的是那些前辈们能够说一句：小伙子，不错！
哪怕那些前辈们虽然有的富可敌国，有的学富五车，却已老眼昏花，跟不上时代，也泡不到美眉了。
少年中国啊，少年中国，当我坐在电影院中，不可免俗地费力寻找你的身影时；当你的名字出现在那张地图上，我惊呼出声心中暗爽时；当我和所有观众一样，看到直升机上那八一星徽会心一笑时，我们都是你的一部分——你的少年心性，你的故作深沉，你的不成熟，你的早熟，你的活力，你的不完美，你的冲劲，你的不自信，你的勇敢。
好莱坞的镜头里永远不会有我们眼中的中国，我们眼中的中国只会出现在中国电影的镜头里。西方媒体的笔下永远不会有真正的中国史，中国历史的记录者永远使用汉字，那汉字从前存在于史官怀中的竹简和市井小民的传说中，今日则被坐在电脑前的每一个你和我敲击，那些西方记者们漏掉的每一个欢笑和每一场苦难，都被我们忠实的记录。
所以，无需费尽去寻找“中国方舟”了，无需为那一句“只有中国能在短时间内做到”而受用无穷，梁启超在《少年中国说》中说中国“壮丽浓郁、翩翩绝世”，不是吗？在那些白皮肤的老朽们已经爬到山顶的时候，等待着他们的只有下山的路，而攀爬未半的少年中国，抬起头，前方是久违300年的绝顶风景。
好莱坞，不如遗忘中国吧，不当大反派，也无意成为救世主，更不想如你们镜头中俄罗斯的寡头、沙特的王储、印度的科学怪才那般脸谱化。如何编排你们的配角由你们自己高兴，但真正的中国，存在在中国人当主角的电影里。
好吧，善良的中国人民都同意了，以后俺们的灾难片里，也给你们美国人留一艘船。要减肥哦。
007 first episode, big villain Dr John Ure is a Chinese, the film released in 1962, October 5, after 15 days, the Sino-Indian border conflict broke out, four years after the Cultural Revolution in China to further its own closed, mystery The Red Storm from the East in general into the sky, swept the entire world, and those rages hoarsely roaring of the leftist students in fact did not know then what is taking place in China.
The Cultural Revolution in the past 33 years, the eyes of Westerners, China is like? This question has always been stirring up the hearts of all Chinese people, we would like a teenager, with people proud of the achievements, but also has shortcomings can not be ignored, edgy look forward, looking forward to all those who applaud achievements, and everyone put than those deficiencies. We look forward to every large in China's shadow, in every country there should be a big scene to find that a large red banner, and every wild notion of the disaster facing the world when they are looking forward to China's appears. We waited for the past what is it? Is worn the same brutal, such as concentration camps, prisons, the American-style Chinese panda journey to lose weight is a old-style military uniforms and the cold is a wealthy high-rolling gangsters, is simple but good enough to eat people. We are so concerned about the Western media's views on us, so "Reference News" sales of very high; we are so concerned about the lens inside the Hollywood kind of how China is, so we are angry after disappointing that we abuse, we are dismayed.
Like a teenager, wearing shoes with feet kicked street trash, vent plausible but in fact his anger does not matter: all these are just growing pains.
Why care about Hollywood lens, China is like? Do not need to pull before the meteorite hit the Earth in China also launched a nuclear bomb, we know that he can destroy the world; do not need to make Batman jumping in Hong Kong, we know that they have skyscrapers; do not need a foreign director moved, we know that in 2008 in May, Wenchuan, Yingxiu, Beichuan how brilliant shining, it is not bright enough to a long history in the human left bright point. No, in fact, we never need Hollywood's recognition and appreciation of the Western world, we have, "Southern Weekend", with Jane Kwangju, there is Lu Guang, there is × × ×, there is × × × (please feel free to fill in the blank, as long as may be 豆瓣remove the names are in line with conditions), we can find their own problems, we also have the courage to tell these brave fellow.
But - yes - yes, like that young, we hope that the hypertrophy of Chen Chu their uniforms to a sudden jump high 8 cm tall; we hope that the monotony, and everyone can be a bit like hair changes; We hope to become the most attractive peers of that one - especially with the southwest corner compared to that dark and cousin;, of course, our best hope is that those predecessors were able to say: boy, yes!
Even though some of those predecessors extremely wealthy, and some Xuefu five cars, already Laoyanhunhua, keep up with the times, it can not crush the foam.
Young China ah, young Chinese, when I was sitting in the cinema can not escape convention to effortlessly find your shadow pm; when your name appears on the chart, I exclaimed out loud when the heart Anshuang; when I, like all the audience and saw the helicopter was 81 when the star emblem of a knowing smile, we are all a part of you - your young minds, you Guzuoshenchen, your immaturity, your precocious, your energy, you do not perfect, you have momentum, you are not confident, you are courageous.
Hollywood's lens will never have our eyes China, we are in the eyes of China will only appear in the Chinese film lens. Western media's pen will never have a real Chinese history, Chinese history, the record will always use the Chinese characters, which used to exist in the Chinese historian bosom of the bamboo and the ordinary people of the legend, today was sitting in front of the computer for each one You and I tap those Western journalists who miss each and every one laugh a misery, have been our loyal records.
So, no need to expend a tremendous amount to look for "China's Ark", and no need for that one, "Only China can do in a short time" and is good enough for infinity, Liang in "Young China, said that" that China "magnificent full-bodied, Innocent Steps masterpiece", is not it? In those white-skinned decrepit are already Pashanding time, waiting for their only down the road, but climbing is not half of the Young China, raised his head, the front is a long-hoped-300 years of utterly scenery.
Hollywood might as well forget the Chinese bar, improper major opponent, but also not intended to be a savior, even if you do not want the lens in the Russian oligarchs, Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince, India's science geeks be as profiling. How to schele your supporting by your own happy, but the real China, there is the Chinese people when the main character of the movie.
Well, kind-hearted Chinese people have agreed, after the film was a disaster An Men, but also give you the Americans stay in a boat. Oh, to lose weight.

2012 is an exciting American movie. It tells the story that everything on earth is destroyed in a disaster in the year 2012, only a small percentage of human beings survived.

The film briefly references Mayanism, the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar, and the 2012 phenomenon in its portrayal of cataclysmic events unfolding in the year 2012. Due to solar flare bombardment the Earth's core begins heating up at an unprecedented rate. This results in a series of Doomsday event scenarios plunging the world into chaos, such as California falling into the Pacific Ocean, the eruption of the Yellowstone National Park caldera, shifting of the continents by crustal displacement, and Megatsunami impacts along every coast line on the Earth. The film centers around an ensemble cast of characters as they narrowly escape multiple catastrophes in an effort to reach ships in the Himalayas, along with scientists and governments of the world who are attempting to save as many lives as they can before the disasters ensue.

G. 求电影2012英文介绍
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 indivials chosen to repopulate the earth and the rich elite, who could afford to buy tickets. A massive flood is heading towards the ship, and e 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.

I. 有关《2012》的英语电影评价 高中水平即可 谢谢了
2012 is actually an captivating film with some spectacular effects scenes. Cusack is great as the everyman hero. Ejiofor grabs your attention as the young government scientist trying to prepare for the inevitable. Glover and Harrison are also effective in smaller roles: Glover as the resolute President, and Harrison as the wackjob conspiracy theorist who might not be so crazy after all. Many other characters are merely stereotypes (like the Russian) or one dimensional (like the wife), but let's be honest, it's not the characters that we're coming to see. If you are, you'll probably be disappointed.
2012 is not great but it entertains as a doomsday thriller.

2012 is a 2009 science fiction disaster film based loosely on the 2012 phenomenon and directed by Roland Emmerich. The film stars John Cusack, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Amanda Peet, Oliver Platt, Danny Glover, Thandie Newton, and Woody Harrelson. The film was distributed by Columbia Pictures. Filming began in August 2008 in Vancouver.
The film briefly references Mayanism, the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar, and the 2012 phenomenon in its portrayal of cataclysmic events unfolding in the year 2012. Due to solar flare bombardment the Earth's core begins heating up at an unprecedented rate. This results in a series of Doomsday event scenarios plunging the world into chaos, such as California falling into the Pacific Ocean, the eruption of the Yellowstone National Park caldera, shifting of the continents by crustal displacement, Megatsunami impacts along every coast line on the Earth, and the flooding of the entire planet. The film centers around an ensemble cast of characters as they narrowly escape multiple catastrophes in an effort to reach ships in the Himalayas, along with scientists and governments of the world who are attempting to save as many lives as they can before the disasters ensue.
Reviews of the film have been mixed, with several critics pointing out the improbability of some of the Apocalyptic scenarios depicted in the film. The film also utilized a viral marketing campaign that has fallen under much criticism with the fictional organization Institute for Human Continuity, a fictitious book written by Jackson Curtis entitled Farewell Atlantis, and streaming media, blog updates and radio broadcasts from the apocalyptic zealot Charlie Frost at his website entitled This Is The End.
