Critics Consensus

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

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

Shadow and Act

Luckily, when the jokes hit, they hit hard, and it's almost always at least entertaining.

There's wonder here that films with quadruple the effects budget would kill for.

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

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

I wish it were. James Funco, Seth Broken, Jonah Whale, Jay Barrelofshit, Dunny McShit, Craig Robberbaron, Michael Cement, Mindy Killing should have locked into that house for real. How did Emma get in here?

The jokes may be a little bit funny at times, but the plot is god awful and everything else is so cringey. Genuinely would have rather watched Family Guy

Really funny film! The jokes hit really hard, by nature a stacked cast, the main cast of characters is really funny because the comedians themselves are hilarious. Jonah Hill is so so good at this. Craig Robinson is one of my favourite comedic writers of all time - as I write this review I'm in the middle of a rewatch of The Office and I love his character (Darryl) so much. Michael Cera is obviously great in this.

It's really dumb and basic, but still boasts some pretty funny moments and performances.
