What to Know

Critics Consensus

Energetic, self-deprecating performances and enough guffaw-inducing humor make up for the flaws in This Is the End loosely written script.

Larushka Ivan-Zadeh metro.co.uk There are some terrific one-liners, most of them insults...But this is a string of character gags, not a film, and the narrative barely putters along. Rated: 3/5 Sep 5, 2017 Full Review Dan Simolke Shadow and Act Luckily, when the jokes hit, they hit hard, and it's almost always at least entertaining. Rated: B- Aug 14, 2017 Full Review Wesley Morris Grantland There's wonder here that films with quadruple the effects budget would kill for. Jan 6, 2014 Full Review JD Duran InSession Film The laughs are often and the drama is felt... Rated: A- Aug 20, 2024 Full Review Don Shanahan Every Movie Has a Lesson With comedic crudeness levels that hit all kinds of wrong and leave very few stones unturned, "This Is the End" will either be something you can sit back and love for its audacity and parody or absolutely loathe for its vanity and stupidity Rated: 3/5 Sep 4, 2023 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Much of the movie goes by with almost nothing of significance happening beyond these actors goofing around together, and this is enjoyable until the formulaic plot takes over, and we lose interest. Rated: 2/4 Sep 6, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

thiago s Filme foda, o roteiro é foda, as cenas são fodas, a história é legal pra caralho, o elenco é foda, e a maioria ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fodas por que são eles mesmos, e cada cena louca atrás da outra, teve o encontro do tres personagens principais do Superbad, sangue, morte, escravidão de atores famosos, e muita outras coisas, com tudo isso, eu recomendo muito esse filme vale muito a pena assistir. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/07/25 Full Review Torin F THIS IS THE END has some great self-deprecating celebrity gags early on—most of which you'll see in the trailer—which makes for an engaging opening. Things then swiftly devolve into a frat house at the end of time, with dudes yelling insult jokes at one another. The commitment to the bit (that this the actual apocalypse) elevates the effort, but it really feels like the actors may be having way more fun than the viewers. It's probably comedy gold for young men of a certain age, but not otherwise. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/23/25 Full Review Charlie S This will forever be my sequel to Pineapple Express. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/01/25 Full Review Kyle B. Really funny. Danny McBride in this is my favorite. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/19/25 Full Review RG G This was frickin awesome. A bunch of A Lister's taking the piss of the Hollywood scene and themselves, while truly making me laugh the whole time. It seems like these fellas really enjoyed making this film and were able to have creative control. Special effects were awesome. There's a great message for us all in the end scenes. Thanks for the laughs! Needed it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/10/25 Full Review Audience Member This movie as alright, for a once time watch, the Jew squad, lol...
