The end is nigh! The end is nigh! Not really. Troll Mayans, freaking everybody out.

This Is The End:

Story:

Seth Rogen, Jay Baruchel, Jonah Hill, James Franco and company have to survive an apocalypse of biblical proportions.

Review:

I have not laughed so hard in months.

This Is The End is by far the funniest film I have seen in ages. An all star cast, some of what have to be the best moments in comedy, and a storyline so religiously offensive that no devoutly religious people should ever watch it.

I mean, yeah it does have a lot of weed jokes and some sexist comments, but if you watch it with an open mind you will like it. The acting is funny, the effects surprisingly big and explosive, and the story was hilarious.

I especially liked Seth Rogen's performance as well as James Franco's. Those two are by far the funniest actors in the film, with Jonah Hill and Michael Cera (to a smaller extent) doing equally amazingly.

Not only that, but the nods to the previous work of the actors were also very well done.

It oddly felt like they weren't doing much acting and were in fact just being themselves, which is another plus.

The story actually makes sense and the dire situation makes a very humourous connection to the characters.

Overall This Is The End was very entertaining. I thought it was very amusing and a very comical view of what would happen if the world ended. I recommend it to anyone who has a sense of humour and likes that type of comedy.
