![]() The cast of characters all play an alternate, self-deprecating version of themselves with a few traits comparable to their real life personas although I don’t think Danny McBride is a cannibal nor Michael Cera a sex-crazed coke fiend. The whole rest of that scene, and then him and Franco’s exchange, we didn’t write any of that.” Evan Goldberg via. “Like the scene where they’re doing inventory with the Milky Way, we just said, ‘Hey, Franco, throw the gun to Jonah,’ and that’s how that scene happened. And even the point of the scene sometimes, honestly, sometimes the actors go, ‘This scene just kinda feels weird in general, and you’ll literally change the trajectory of the whole scene.” Seth Rogen via Huffington Post But as far as dialogue goes, it’s all up for grabs. “We really spend a lot of time on the script, and especially the structure, because that we know we can’t improvise. The film is an extension of the 2007 short “ Jay and Seth Versus the Apocalypse,” but this disaster flick’s edge relies solely on what we love these guys for-comedic chemistry and improvisation. For more reviews check: is the End features the directorial début of longtime besties and collaborators Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg ( Superbad and Pineapple Express writing partner) who deliver non-stop comedic romps and punchlines from page to screen with no limitations of raunchiness. If you didn't - well, it's still worth a try. It's simple - if you liked previous movies by Rogen- Goldberg, you're going to fall in love with this one. ![]() ![]() That's always a good thing, right? Overall, it's a very fun watch, especially if you have some friends and beer with you. However, it makes the movie a bit better. ![]() Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's anything overly ambitious or a piece of art that would leave you thinking about your life or state of the world. It also has a very simple, yet not so dumb message. 'This is the End' contains a fair amount of satire on the posh world of show-business. Plus it's nice to see big Hollywood names not taking themselves too seriously. And it's amazing, because this atmosphere of good fun is passed to the audience. Be it playing soccer with a severed head, fighting over a Milky Way or filming the sequel to 'Pineapple Express' (hands down my favorite part of the movie) - it all seems to be pure fun to these guys. But what's more, it is fairly obvious that the whole crew had so much fun making this movie. The movie is rather a collection of gags with typical American humor, which is exactly what you would expect from anything created by the duo Seth Rogen-Evan Goldberg. I wouldn't say the plot is non-existent, but it certainly isn't developed enough to pay much attention to it. However, they are mere additions to the main course of 'Pineapple Express'-like buddy comedy featuring Seth Rogen, Jay Baruchel, James Franco, Jonah Hill and Craig Robinson. There are way too many cameos to include all of them in this review, but the most memorable ones are definitely Emma Watson (you need to see Hermione with an axe), Danny McBride and Michael Cera. It starts off rather inconspicuously - Jay Baruchel and Seth Rogen after spending a day on smoking weed and playing video games head to party at James Franco's new mansion. The concept of the movie is rather simple - have a bunch of celebrities fighting for their life during the Apocalypse. ![]() Biblical Apocalypse? Nuclear war? Hit of a meteor? No matter how, the way of surviving it in 'This is the End' is by far the best I've seen on-screen. I'm pretty sure everyone has their own vision of how the world is going to end. ![]()
