Funny & Absurd!

Rating: 6/10 (5 October 2013)

Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg's 'This Is The End' is funny & absurd! The sense of humor depicted in this Apocalyptic Comedy will be enjoyed by those who enjoy comedies that are rude, over-the-top & absurd.
'This Is The End' Synopsis: While attending a party at James Franco's house, Seth Rogen, Jay Baruchel and many other celebrities are faced with the apocalypse.
'This Is The End' has a super first-hour, but a dull second. The entire Jonah Hill getting possessed chapter is unfunny & the culmination is absurd. A funnier second-hour was definitely needed. Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg's Screenplay begins marvelously but slips completely in the final act. Their Direction, on the other-hand, is passable.
Performance-Wise: James Franco is in terrific form. The star-actor is nearly flawless! Seth Rogen is getting repetitive. His performance is the same as it was in his earlier comedies. Jonah Hill is excellent. Craig Robinson has his moments. Danny McBride is strictly okay. In cameos, Michael Cera & Emma Watson are impressive.
On the whole, 'This Is The End' is great in parts.
