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!

Without going into massive details about the plot and narrative, it's important to remember that this film was made during the pandemic. The efforts to even put a film together at that time should be highly commended.

The film itself has it's issues but all in all its a fairly solid effort.

Fine premise although undercooked and dragged down by the unnecessary cameo stars with almost identical YOLO 'all-american' agenda of their characters. One can get it from first maybe second iteration, but when story repeats itself again and again the senses are wear out.

Also the proverbial hero journey is little bit on the nose in this story. Which is not bad, but with great pandemic limitations this concept could be little bit more sophisticated. Now this film looks like kinda good pilot to easy-watch tv, maybe youtube show or miniseries, and sadly it doesn't provide such satisfaction.

Both leads are great though, and movie is definitely worth to check out.

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.

Wow just a collection of quirky people this woman finds while walking the streets of Los Angeles. That's it. Most of them were dull and uninteresting with equally dull and boring conversations...
