The Mayan calendar predicts that the world will end in 2012, and many believe it's true. This Emmy-nominated Discovery Channel documentary illustrates the variety of ways the apocalypse could arrive in. True believers will learn how volcanic eruption, widespread plague, deadly asteroids, neighboring stars, and nuclear and biological weapons could each bring about the extinction of humankind.

Reviews
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
carbuff Overall a very good show. Of course it was presented in a pretty sensationalistic manner, but that is what I expected and probably what I would have done myself if I was in charge of making it. The only really stupid thing was presenting the threat of an alien invasion as being a significant one, which I personally find utterly ridiculous, although, no doubt, a few other people are going to disagree. Aliens are one thing I just can't bring myself to seriously consider worrying about for various reasons having to do with pretty basic physics. Similarly, the bit about the miniature black holes was pretty much a waste of time, except that it did help segue into another segment. All things considered, fun and well-put together with very good visuals and competent talking heads.
