The world is coming to an end in this Sony epic from 2009 which saw the world coming to an end in the year 2012. Who knew that Sony was off by 8 years?
The ridiculously expensive movie sees some stunning effects even if the story is leaving much to be desired.

As Netflix sadly says goodbye to other PBS documentaries from Ken Burns and Lynn Novick, it does say hello to a new one today.
