If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

I love apocalyptic movies, and thought this would be a winner with Forest Whitaker. Alas, the only compelling thing about this movie was wondering what was causing the apocalypse, and this is left a mystery. Otherwise, the movie is full of plot holes. They drive 2000 miles in a Cadillac on (I think) maybe 2 and half tanks of gas, and it takes them six days to do it? And only encounter half a dozen vehicles that entire way? If they were so desperate for gas, couldn't they have siphoned some out of gas tanks at a gas station, or any number of vehicles that HAD to exist somewhere along that trip. And of course, almost everyone they do encounter wants to kill them. A complete waste of 2 hours, and not very enjoyable.

Still trying to figure out what the actual disaster was. Oh that's right, it's this movie! No explanation or clarity at the events that unfold. Why was there plane debris and crashed trains hundreds of miles away from where the event took place? Where did the girl go? What was up with those terrible storms? Why were places lit up in flames? Answer?............your guess is as good as mine. A total mince film which was nothing more than a road trip where run ins with disgruntled people was a must! Save your time and imagination on a movie that doesn't deliver on plot.......but does deliver in the title. How it ends. Poorly

Quite a good movie but the lack of an end was truly dissapointing. The title should have been: "Nobody knows how it ends"

Who cares how it ends exactly? Why would we need to get everything explained? Like we really understand stuff at all! Ha Movie is entertaining enough, Forest is always likable, the situations are oke. It's not great, but no one who is seeking Greatness would watch tv a lot :)One thing was funny: Forest saying to the attorney son in law that 'everyone wants the Dream'. Funny thing with Americans: their relentless clinging to a Dream, not noticing that to believe in it one has to be asleep! And not noticing that the US is one of the sickest of societies and spreading it like a virus. We dream to be free, but are the slaves of money & succes, having the most egocentric heartless untruthful beings run the show...what a dream
