3D Animation, graphics and everything you ever saw will look minuscule once you see 2012. The movie gives its views an experience of a lifetime; visual effects which we could only say “are these possible”. We have experienced in past flicks, events like natural disasters, fires etc. but 2012 has all what can dream off. Roland Emmerich has clearly beaten on what he did with special effect in his previous flicks like ID4, Godzilla, The Day After Tomorrow and 10,000 B.C.
Earthquakes, tidal waves, monuments coming down and even huge tsunami crossing the mighty Himalayas and hitting a monastery, things which one could never imagine exist in this flick. Need to mention on a specific sequence that shows LA being hit by a 10.5 magnitude earthquake with the Entire Boulevard crashing and buildings surrounding coming down. Even the ending shot of this sequence explores new horizons in when an aircraft take off from a tumbling airstrip and navigates through falling skyscrapers. Even though we know most of the shots and special effects are created but they still look more then original.
Another sequence of shots that will mesmerize viewers shows Lama Yon La ringing a giant bronze bell in a monastery and when the camera angle changes, it will shock the viewers. As giant tidal wave of immense proportion generated by deep ocean earthquakes, engulfs the mighty Himalayan peaks and sweeps away the monastery from the top of the peak.
This is surely a flick for those who await special effect movies, the digital technology take you to a new dimension in both sound and visual effect. Some might find it too much technology based, but again to get such effects one need to use tech.
