movie review - This is the End

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2015.08.17

This is the telling of a bunch of hot young Hollywood types who are Left Behind when the Rapture comes. It tells of the inevitable descent into anarchy and the emergent of some demons or whatever that God in his wisdom sends to torture everyone who wasn't taken. As far as Bible stories goes, this one had me laughing throughout.

Recommended.

rand()m quote

Society is indeed a contract... [the state] is a partnership in all science; a partnership in all art; a partnership in every virtue, and in all perfection. As the ends of such a partnership cannot be obtained in many generations, it becomes a partnership not only between those who are living, but between those who are living, those who are dead, and those who are to be born.

—Edmund Burke
