Halloween the Film Watchening Part 3: (#3) This Is The End

Okay, this is going to be a short one, because it's really quite ludicrously simple. Jay Baruchel goes to visit Seth Rogan in Hollywood. They go to a party at James Franco's house, and then the apocalypse happens. That's pretty much it. This is not a clever homage film in the vein of either Shaun of the Dead or Cabin in the Woods or Tucker & Dale ( Read more... )

Yeah, see, my brother-in-law was trying to convince me that this was funny and my response was, "Well, I don't really like that group of actors." Guess I know who to trust now.

Yeah, there is nothing more to this movie than watching those 6 interact, because it's really not a genre call-back of any kind beyond the basic premise.

Which is fine, but it means that you have to like the style of verbal humor that they bring, otherwise there is no point.

The only names I recognized on that list were Jonah Hill and James Franco (I didn't know Franco did comedy!).

I don't like stoner movies, and I have low tolerance for excessive funny-chatter.

And I greatly enjoyed this movie!

I was sold when Michael Cera was killed off.

Whoa, I just realized something. Blondie's Rapture played at the beginning. Considering what occurs, it was foreshadowing ...
