Woody Harrelson is in it as a wacky conspiracy theory radio broadcaster,
best role in the film. Ignore everyone else, put your critical thinking in a
corner, and enjoy the massive world destruction porn. Don't expect
Shakespeare, or even comic book grade writing. Just watch billions of CGI
PINKS DYING EN MASSE.
(Disclaimer: If X-Day in 2012 happens to be THE X-Day, then you'll get to
see it for realsies anyway)
