Edelstein on 2012

Over at the Projectionist, New York’s David Edelstein reviews Roland Emmerich’s 2012: “The disaster genre is inherently junky, and not every end-of-civilization picture has to be as exhaustingly grim as the coming The Road. But 2012 rides in on and reinforces an especially idiotic wave of evangelical doomsday predictions with supposed roots in the Mayan calendar, and it’s too trivial to live.” [The Projectionist]
