All Jay Baruchel expected coming to LA was a fun time with Seth Rogen with all the wild partying to have both by themselves and at James Franco's housewarming party. Suddenly, the Rapture hits and the Biblical Apocalypse has begun. Now, Jay and Seth are desperately sheltering in James' house for rescue along with a few other friends. Together, they must band together to attempt to survive the end of the world, only for Jay to find that they are all too dumb and superficial to do it until they discover the only way out. Written by

Michael Cera's character was supposedly based on an exaggerated version of himself, in particular to how he felt about being repeatedly typecast as the "Awkward Teenager." He had earlier expressed such frustration to Seth Rogen, who decided to use Cera's distraught feelings over this issue while writing, in order to inadvertently show on screen that Michael Cera is not only capable of performing outside his typecast, but that the film industry could be responsible for a hypothetical downward spiral of Cera's life into a dark and dangerous place. Reportedly, Cera was extremely grateful for Rogen's writing and depiction of his character and would be able to thank him for any future roles for which he is not typecast. See more »

Many of Hollywood's biggest comedy stars united for This is the End for one of two comedies about the end of the week. Whilst Edgar Wright's The World's End is the superior film that is consistently funny and action packed flick, This is the End does offer many laugh out loud moments, using more crass and crude humour, having jokes ranging from masturbation, stoner jokes and violent slapstick. Some of the best moments include a trailer for 'Pineapple Express 2', Emma Watson's cameo and discussion between James Franco and Danny McBride over a porn mag. Other jokes are more miss or crude for the such as the demon's man parts. The main stars have excellent chemistry together and had a strong dramatic with Seth Rogan balancing his old friendship with Jay Baruchel who hates LA and his newer friends in the city.
If all else fails at least Kevin Hart dies a nasty death.
If you enjoy this film then Zombieland and Dogma are worth checking out.
7.5/10
