At the Movies: This is the End

This end-of-days comedy finds actors playing themselves, hiding out with James Franco in his house as the apocalypse decimates L.A.

Childhood friends Seth Rogen and Jay Baruchel (everyone here plays an amoral, exaggerated, ruined version of himself), ditch a wild party at James Franco’s overblown art-mansion and find themselves “left behind” in the first blast of God’s rapture. Others are blue-light-elevated into the sky but no celebrity gets to fly away to glory. Back at the party house, a sinkhole of molten lava devours just about everyone not already on the movie’s poster and it’s up to Rogen, Baruchel, Franco, Craig Robinson, Jonah Hill and Danny McBride to figure out a way to survive and earn their way to Heaven. Director: Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg. Cast: James Franco, Jonah Hill, Seth Rogen, Jay Baruchel, Danny McBride. Rated: R. Time: 1:47.
