“This Is the End” Weird and Ridiculous

“Weird and Ridiculous”
“Hotshots” looks at a movie!
This Is the End doesn’t have anything to do with the opening words to a famous song by The Doors, unless you change the reference to how they got their name from “the doors of perception” to “the gates of Hell.”
No, this movie is a comic look at what a group of famous Hollywood actors might do if the predictions in the Book of Revelation came true.
All of the actors play themselves, and the movie opens with Seth Rogen meeting his friend and fellow actor Jay Baruchel at the airport, who is coming into Los Angeles to spend the weekend with Seth.
Seth tells Jay, “Here’s to the best weekend you’ve ever had in your life!”
Little do they know or realize that it is going to be the last weekend of their lives.
Jay doesn’t live in Los Angeles on purpose, because he doesn’t like the lifestyle there, but Seth convinces him to go to a housewarming party at the new house belonging to James Franco, which James designed himself to be like a fortress, and for the sake of the movie, it is a good thing he did.
The party is wild and raucous, the partygoers are all actors you will recognize and some you won’t, but during the party something weird and strange and terrifying happens outside in Los Angeles, which causes everyone to leave except for Franco, Seth, Jay, Jonah Hill, and Craig Robinson, and they are so frightened that they all sleep together to feel safe.
The next morning they wake up to find Danny McBride in the kitchen making breakfast, which is strange, because Danny wasn’t even invited to the party.
They discuss whether this might be the Apocalypse, realize that they don’t have much food or any water, but they do have drugs, as you might have expected if you have seen any of the movies that these actors have made together.
Emma Watson breaks into the house and tells them that it is obvious that a zombie invasion is happening, but she leaves with all the remaining food when she overhears the guys discussing what is not going to happen with one girl in the house with six guys.
This Is the End is just a weird and ridiculous home movie on a Hollywood budget with famous actors.
I’m Dan Culberson and this is “Hotshots.”
