The movie was nothing. The behavior of the characters made no sense and added nothing to the plot. You never find out why destruction is occurring. One of the worst movies I have ever seen. I pray that Mystery Science Theater 3000 finds out about this movie and use it on their show. It is the only way it will be watchable.

What a wasted afternoon. No real explanation for anything! Forest Whitaker clearly just taking the money! Not really sure how stuff like this actually gets made anymore?!

How It Ends is truly unique in the fact that it's the only disaster or post apocalypse film to leave me bored. The cinematic version of watching paint dry.

You won't beg for the two hours of your life back after watching this film. It had it's moments.

Film Inquiry

Even with a good hook, How It Ends suffers from a lack of vision, which is exactly what you don't need in an effects-heavy disaster movie.
