Leave your thoughts about This Is the End.
| Daily Record (UK)Garry McConnachieNear-the-knuckle comedy that proves self-indulgent laughs, when done right, can be hilarious. |
| AALBC.comKam WilliamsArmageddon never looked like so much fun! |
| San Jose Mercury NewsRandy MyersYou never know exactly what lunacy lurks around the corner, or just how far Rogen and Goldberg will push the R rating to its limit. |
| HeyUGuysJoe CunninghamUnsurprisingly it's really messy, and not every joke lands, but the script's peppered with so many that it's hard to find a scene where you're not consistently laughing. |
| Critic's NotebookMartin Tsai"This Is the End" does not crack jokes at the expense of Christianity. It does, however, consider both kicking a severed head around like a football and the prospect of raping Emma Watson to be hilarious. |
| Philadelphia WeeklySean BurnsProbably the most self-indulgent wank in movie history, yet on occasion it's hilarious. |
| TheMovieReport.comMichael DequinaThat Rogen and Goldberg make one of the Backstreet Boys' more annoying yesteryear hit singles something you giddily sing along to is a measure of just how on point the satire is--that, or that it truly *is* the end of the world. |
| Arkansas Democrat-GazettePhilip Martin...a very savvy send up of the way we perceive celebrities as vapid and self-involved ciphers who are so often flattered and coddled that they come to accept applause as their due. |
| The Ooh TrayEd WhitfieldThe end of the world turns out to be one prolonged exercise in mutual masturbation. It may end that way but wouldn't it be nice to get in on the action instead of observing from a seat stained with coke and who knows what else? |
| KWQC-TV (Iowa)Linda CookProfane, shocking, and absolutely hysterical, 'This is the End' is one of the most creative comedies to come along in years. |
