STORYLINE
Life for former UN Investigator Gerry Lane and his family seems content. Suddenly, the world is plagued by a mysterious infection turning the whole human population into rampaging mindless zombies. After barely escaping the chaos, Lane is persuaded to go on a mission to investigate this disease. What follows is a perilous trek around the world where Lane must brave horrific dangers and long odds to find answers before humanity falls.

MY REVIEW:
First, I LIKED the fact that this movie strayed  from the Max Brooks novel. I didn't expect anything different, which is likely why I did enjoy this movie. I enjoyed the concept and the speed at which the "zombies" were able to get to was a novel piece of modern Zombie Film Making. (28 Days Later set that in motion).

I enjoyed the dialogue and the performances. I think that this was a successful movie.

This is the End

STORYLINE
All Jay Baruchel expected coming to LA was a fun time with his buddy Seth Rogen but instead they end of at James Franco's housewarming party Suddenly, the Rapture hits and the biblical apocalypse has begun. Now, Jay and Seth are desperately taking shelter in James' house for rescue alone with some other famous friends. Together, they must band together and attempt to survive the end of the world only to discover that they are all too dumb and superficial to figure it out!

MY REVIEW:
This is pretty brilliant filmmaking! Here's just a short list of guest stars in this movie: Jonah Hill, Danny McBride, Craig Robinson, Michael Cera (in what could quite possibly be the movie that I find him to be the most intriguing and utterly disturbing!), Emma Watson, Rihanna, Channing Tatum, and the Backstreet Boys!

This was funny and self-indulgent and full of unexpected fun! There is so much imagery that just cannot be described in this post. It's a must see!
