An amusing premise yields few yuks.

[An] almost endearingly silly amuse bouche of a comedy depicting how the End of Days might play out in Seattle ...

Rated: 2/4

It never does live up to its potential, instead becoming bogged down in a repellent character who is supposed to be savagely satirical but is really just tediously crass.

Rated: 2/5

The Last Thing I See

Rapture-Palooza is a prime example of a movie that has great concept, but that struggles to stretch said concept into a feature-length motion picture.

Rated: C

Robinson's grating performance becomes increasingly difficult to stomach...

Rapture-Palooza is borderline-heartbreaking in its wasted potential.

This was hysterical! Underrated; Blatantly Irreverent - Lot's of graphic cursing - but nothing people don't think or say in the "real world" But never lacking questions people have about life - I cannot decide if "The Beast" poster was reminiscent of The Obama Hope poster. If so, were they stating as a movie that "O" was the devil? I say no mainly because not the politics of Ken or Craig as far as I know them as public people - So more likely a reference to some public view depicting him as such. It's campy and I cannot say where I was like - IS this too far? or it will be a spoil alert - Pretty smart and sassy stuff - Could have had some better "acting" but this is done in this fashion with purpose- A I give it a 4 for content and being just plain Meatballs kind of funny. She's great! As I read the reviews, before I post - I see a lot of points of view and relate - (No dude - this is not a family fun movie to watch with your kids - lol) But even as one is a great believer in G, J and the Bible, one must remember that there are many religions with many points of view or isms about the ism. The final question of the day in this movie is - Does G-d exist? And mine is - not for nothing - what if the crows were really saying this to us? - I can't stop laughing about it - it would bite badly but still - too funny! Love the cast - Craig manages to be as gross as he should be.

I don't know why this wasn't a box office hit this movie is hilarious. I think smart witty comedy is often overlooked because most people are dumb. To dim to enjoy a joke that makes you think just a little bit.

Horrible movie. Anna Kendrick is wasted. Craig Robinson should go back to making stupid commercials. This however is the role he was born to play, if he is not already Satan.
