Our take on This Is the End

This 2013 action-comedy sends a clutch of celebrities playing exaggerated versions of themselves into the apocalypse, as Seth Rogen, Jay Baruchel and others find a party at James Franco's house interrupted by the end of the world. Directed by Evan Goldberg, it mines the collision of Hollywood egos and cosmic catastrophe for raunchy, self-mocking laughs, trapping its cast together while chaos escalates outside. Expect crude improvisational humor, meta jokes at the stars' own expense and a loose, anything-goes energy. It suits viewers who enjoy vulgar buddy comedy and in-jokey riffs on celebrity culture; those put off by scatological gags or hoping for a coherent disaster plot will likely check out early.
