《2012》是一部關於全球毀滅的災難電影，它講述在2012年世界末日到來時，主人公以及世界各國人民掙扎求生的經歷；該片被稱為《後天》的升級版，投資超過2億美元，是災難片大師羅蘭·艾默里奇（Roland Emmerich）的又一力作。
太陽活動異常，地球內部的能量平衡系統面臨崩潰，瑪雅人的預言即將實現，人類將遭遇滅頂之災。各國政府已經聯手開始秘密製造方舟，希望能躲過這一浩劫。以寫科幻小說謀生的傑克遜（約翰·庫薩克John Cusack飾）在帶孩子們到黃石公園度周末時遭遇了一連串怪事，而且遇到了神經兮兮的查理（伍迪·哈里森Woody Harrelson飾），查理告訴他世界末日即將來臨。伴隨著火山爆發、強烈地震以及海嘯，傑克遜帶領自己的家人駕駛一架臨時租來的飛機衝出被死神陰霾瞬間籠罩的城市上空，開始尋找查理口中各國政府正在聯合秘密製造的方舟。在生死攸關的時刻，一些偉大的靈魂將脫穎而出，而一些自私的心靈將無所遁形，當千千萬萬個生靈通過各種方法來到方舟製造基地之時，方舟有限的容納數量引發了前所未有的恐慌。最終，僅存的人們用互愛和對生命的尊重渡過了難關。
電影對白
Wilson:Oh my god,what's happening out there?
Adrian:Anheuser convinced the other heads of state to launch.Mr Anheuser,we have to stop this madness.Make sure the other bridges can see me.
Anheuser:What do you think you're doing?
Adrian:I know exactly what I'm doing.Ladies and gentleman,this is Dr Adrian Helmsley.Chief science adviser to the late President Wilson.
Woman:Could you please turn up the volume,Mr Hoffman.
Adrian:I know we've all been forced to make difficult decisions to save our human civilization.But to be human means to care for each other and civilization means to work together to create a better life.If that's true,then there's nothing human and nothing civilized about what we're doing here.
Anheuser:Dr Helmsley's passion is admirable.But I remind you that we have very limited resources and extremely limited time.
Adrian:Ask yourselves,can we really standby and watch these people die?I read a quote two days ago.The author is probably dead by now.But he said,"The moment we stop fighting for each other,that's the moment that we lose our humanity."
Anheuser:And in order to save the human race,we have the obligation to stick to this plan which every nation on this flotilla signed up for.They're in God's hands now.Officer,you turn that off.That is an order,sailor.Turn it off!
