Alain E @AlainE Jun 21 A brilliant movie about the imminent end of the world and spending the last hours with friends and family. All the action is filmed in the interior of a suburban house and it succeeds in holding our unwavered attention for 88 minutes. Competent cinematography and good music selection. I admit that I didn’t know any of the actors interpreting the eight main characters with great success. On Cineverse.

The brunch (as it was planned anyway) is just a low impact social obligation where everyone normally gets to just front their superficial versions of themselves and pretend they like each other. But that social dynamic cracks and they realize that they actually ARE superficial and selfish and off-putting. They really shouldn't be the survivors of the apocalypse. The broader statement being, who should? If it were made now, there would be a social media influencer, a tech bro, a... umm.... clueless political zealot... You get the idea. The movie shows us the enemy and it is us. See more Calvin T @Calvin504 12/29/2024 Watchable.....wasn't too funny though it tried...... See more 03/12/2022 I really wanted to like this, and I did enjoy some aspects of it, but the ending does really hurt it. Years ago, I found myself burned out on happy endings, and then I got my wish many times over. Today, I just need good writing, and this film raised questions that it was not prepared to answer...as if it just got distracted and forgot to follow up, and then slapped together a climax that was unsatisfying...and that can be funny sometimes, but in this case, it wasn't. I think it was a bit of a miss on the whole, but it was nice to see Julia Styles hasn't lost her touch. Would I recommend this? How bored are you?

The humor works well and it's not an entirely implausible scenario despite the gullibility with which they accept their predicament. Perhaps most surprising is that it doesn't become tired or wear thin and remains engaging throughout. See more 05/24/2021 Seems like 90% of the dialogue was written just to eat up time. Weak characters. Dumb ending, too. See more Read all reviews
