Rare cult classic comedy

Rating: 10/10 (9 April 2015)

Best comedy of that year. "This is the End" is a big inside jokeand luckily I felt like I was on the inside the entire time. Easily the funniest film of 2013 thus far, "End" refers to the end of days: the apocalypse, judgment day, the Book of Revelation coming into being. When Seth Rogen and Jay Baruchel show up at James Franco's housewarming party, Hell literally begins to break loose. Some bodies get sucked above by blue lights, other fall into fiery sinkholes. By the end of the initial craziness, Craig Robinson, Jonah Hill and Danny McBride have also survived the crazinessthe six leads all play themselves and have a blast lampooning one another's public image. There's Rogen's annoying laugh, Franco's gay rumors, and the hits fly fast and furious throughout the 107 minute running time. It's totally juvenile and sophomoric, and the story is simply a humorous backgroundbut it's just so damn funny. If you're not a fan of these guys, you may want to stay away. But the lead performances mesh well with celebrity cameos (Michael Cera in particular was one of the many bright spots) and it adds up to a completely ridiculous film that may just be the best comedy of the year. Note: this is not my review but the movie is cult comedy must watch at any time
