solar flare. American scientist Adrian Helmsley (
Chiwetel Ejiofor) travels to a
neutrino detector in a
copper mine in
India to meet his friend, Satnam (
Jimi Mistry), who has discovered that Earth's core temperature is increasing rapidly. Adrian returns to
Washington D.C. and submits a report to Chief of Staff Carl Anheuser (
Oliver Platt), who immediately takes him to see
US President Thomas Wilson (
Danny Glover). In 2010, Wilson tells other
heads of state and
heads of government the situation at the
36th G8 summit and the creation of a number of arks begin in preparation for the world ending. To fund the venture, billionaires are allowed a ticket for one billion
euros.
In 2012, Jackson Curtis (
John Cusack) is a divorced father who works as a limousine driver and writer. His ex-wife Kate (
Amanda Peet) and their children Noah (
Liam James) and Lily (
Morgan Lily) live with her new boyfriend, plastic surgeon Gordon (
Thomas McCarthy). Jackson takes Noah and Lily on a camping trip to
Yellowstone, where they meet Charlie Frost (
Woody Harrelson), a radio show host and conspiracy theorist who believes in the Mayans' prediction of the world ending in 2012. The family return home as cracks begin to develop along the
San Andreas Fault in
California and earthquakes occur in the
San Francisco Bay area. Despite government assurances that all is fine, Jackson grows suspicious and hires a private plane to rescue his family and Gordon. As the
Earth's crust displacement begins, Jackson collects his family and escapes
Los Angeles as it collapses into the
Pacific Ocean.
As millions begin dying in apocalyptic earthquakes the world over, the group fly back to Yellowstone to collect a map from Charlie so they can try and reach the arks. They narrowly escape as the
Yellowstone Caldera erupts, killing Charlie who remains behind to watch. Realising the arks are in China, the group lands in
Las Vegas and meets up with Russian billionaire Yuri Karpov (
Zlatko Buric), who Jackson works as a limo driver for. Karpov, his twin sons, girlfriend Tamara (
Beatrice Rosen) and pilot, Sasha (
Johann Urb) join the group as they head across the Pacific.
President Wilson meanwhile elects to stay behind in
Washington D.C., and dies when the carrier, the
USS John F. Kennedy smashes into the
White House, caused by a tsunami hitting the city, while Anheuser escapes with Helmsley and First Daughter Laura Wilson (
Thandie Newton) on
Air Force One, also bound for the arks. In the wake of the President's death, the Vice President being killed in a helicopter crash outside Pittsburgh, and the Speaker of the House missing Anheuser appoints himself Commander-in-Chief.
Crash-landing in the Himalayas (which kills Sasha), Jackson and his family (along with Tamara) are deserted by Karpov, who has a ticket for himself and his sons onto the arks. However, the group is able to get aboard with the help of a
Buddhist monk, Nima (Osric Chau) and his brother Tenzin (
Chin Han) who worked on the ark project.
Tsunamis begin to engulf the
Indian peninsula as heads of state, hand-picked individuals chosen to repopulate the Earth and the rich elite who bought the tickets begin boarding. Adrian realises they have much less time than anticipated and Anheuser orders the arks be sealed early, although in conference with other
G8 leaders Adrian, quoting Jackson's book, manages to convince them to open the gates and let the remaining people on board.
Below decks Jackson's group is sneaking aboard, but as the gates open again, Gordon falls between two gears and is crushed. As the gates start to close once more, Yuri sacrifices his life to get his two sons on in time, and Tamara drowns in a compartment. Jackson realizes their entry into the ark has jammed the door mechanism, setting the entire ark on a crash course with
Mount Everest. Together with his son, Jackson fixes the problem in time for the ark to suffer only minimal damage from hitting the mountainside.
When the flood eventually recedes, satellite data shows that Africa rose in sea level and may not have flooded at all. As three arks set sail for the
Cape of Good Hope, Jackson reconciles with his family and Helmsley starts a relationship with Laura. The movie ends with a view of the world showing the dramatically changed African continent.Cool man.......2 hrs and 40 minutes of excitement and comedy(a little).Then we haven't finished the popcorn we shared because my teeth dropped out while crushing on the popcorn "seed".Fishes.So we didnt finish half of the popcorn and threw it away.No choice.Its already 7PM!!!Gosh......but Maxcy went into Zone-X and saw a Seasame-street jackpot toy game but only can use coins and she spent 20 over dollars but no luck......her card have:200++ dollars leh....she said if can use card better.........at last also never get.Took a neo-print...........-------------------------------.Then after that go macdonalds again to buy snacks on the way luh.I bought apple pie(2)and on the way ate one ate until fed-up the apple-pie filling keep coming out.........i dont give a damn.Then Maxcy say alight at the bus stop faster then alighted....suddenly she turned to me and say:OOPS....wrong stop,must walk...GDI......then reached home about 9.30pm.
