How It Ends

I agree that it's not really believable and kinda weird but How It Ends is delightful view of the end of the world without so much tragedy. Zoe Lister Jones and Cailee Spaeney are superb together! So many of the characters/ scenes are super weird and a little uncomfortable somehow really enjoyable though. Has some glow and charm that makes it more likable!

The synopsis sounds fun, but the actual story is very boring. Nothing happens, and I just don't see the point of the film. I have a hard time in believing that the world is ending, based on how empty the streets are, and how calm people are. The story doesn't convince me at all.

This film is a beautiful story of a human who wants to reconcile with herself and life on the last day on earth.

Hilarious odyssey full of crazy characters played by some of the funniest actors A philosophical comedy.

If you're looking for a movie to have on in the background while you're multitasking on something else I still wouldn't recommend this. If you come across a review with glowing praise then it's probably from a pretentious soul that cuts and eats a candy bar with a fork and knife.

I read some unflattering reviews on here before I watched this movie, and so my expectations were low going in. However, I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised and I feel those who trashed it were a bit harsh. The movie has a great pace to it. It's a collection of short scenes that don't linger too long. If you don't care for one scene, don't worry, another one is coming right up. I particularly liked the scenes with Sharon Van Etten, Olivia Wilde, Lamorne Morris, and Helen Hunt. There were some funny jokes along the way, as well as some light emotional stuff. All in all in was an enjoyable movie. I thought the younger-self construct was very interesting, and the chemistry between Zoe Lister-Jones and Cailee Spaeny was excellent. Also, since I live in Los Angeles, I really enjoyed seeing the street signs and keeping track of where each scene was filmed. From a reality standpoint, though, there is no way they could have gotten to all those places on foot in one day. Ha ha! The other good thing about this movie is that it's a great document of how empty the streets were during the pandemic. In my imagination, on the last day of human life on earth the streets of Los Angeles would be filled with people going nuts. But the fact that the streets were so empty in the movie added sort of a calm eeriness, and a sense of acceptance of the impending doom. It's nice to think that could actually be ... how it ends.
