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

Plenty of banter between contemporary comedy stars. The cameos from other stars and "how they are in real life" especially Michael Cera was hilarious. This movie is very enjoyable if you like the "Apatow brand" of humor. Check it out.

Think about the premise (actors playing themselves and dying as themselves in an apocalyptic end of the world event) what you want: there is promise it in. But when you kill off the majority of the cameos right in the beginning and then have the usual suspects have the usual dialog in a rather bleak apartment situation over and over, things do get a little tiresome after a while. While the final twist is surprisingly optimistic, the Backstreet Boys dancing in heaven is a certain way to kill a film ending. Stupid.

"This Is the End" starts with Seth Rogen picking up his good friend Jay Baruchel at the airport. They quickly put to rest Seth's macrobiotic diet in favor of some fast food. After which, they hang out, play video games and smoke some weed. But Jay doesn't feel like going to a party at James Franco's, even as Seth talks him into it. They don't stay long, opting to buy some booze on their own. And that's when the world ends. If you can only watch one comedy about the rapture featuring Craig Robinson, then definitely go with the entertaining "This Is the End" which makes the most of its semi-limited budget to create some very memorable imagery. In general, the movie takes aim at the notion of celebrity with the cast playing alternate versions of themselves that are not to be taken seriously. However, it does confirm the worst suspicions about Danny McBride while giving the viewer a more pseudo-intellectual James Franco than previously thought possible. Otherwise, the in-jokes do not really work. Instead the movie is very meaningful when it comes to exploring the bonds of friendship.

This Is the End, somewhat ironically, falls apart at the end, but its tear-inducing, hysterical first-two-thirds ensure that it's a comedic delight, brought to life by some of the most brilliant improvisation in cinematic memory.
