Seriously, this movie is so badly made I genuinely laughed in delight.
Science Mom and Ex-army Dad need to get Tech Nerd Son and Daughter With No Actual Characteristic Beyond Being The Daughter to safety because a big solar storm is causing volcanoes, tsunamis and earthquakes that are oddly localised to LA. I know this was likely intended to be a serious action movie, but it is so horrendously bad that it loops back around to brilliance.
At one point what is supposed to be heavy debris is clearly papier-mache. A man gets a tsunami to the face. Lava somehow manages to sneak up on people. Everyone is oddly chill, and I spotted at least one actor trying not to laugh. At one point two characters that were in the middle of nowhere suddenly appear in the city. The acting is so bad that Tommy Wiseau seems like Meryl Streep in comparison. Budget was apparently half a million but looks like it was at most ten dollars and a coke.
Thoroughly enjoyed it. Would recommend watching while in an altered state of consciousness.

For a movie released in late 2018 everything about it sucked, acting was almost as bad as some christain productions, the soundtrack was about as creative as the music you hear when your put on hold during a phone call to your family doctor, and the CGI appeared to be outsourced to some high school kids. Good luck to any potential future audience members.

Right, well I knew that when I sat down to watch the 2018 "End of the World" movie, that I was 99% likely to be in for an hour and a half of questionable disaster movie.
And that I was...
This movie was earthshakingly bad to the very core. The storyline in the movie, while easy to follow, was just so idiotic and unrealistic that it wasn't even fun to watch the movie. A lot of the bad disaster movies out there, at least are so fundamentally bad that they are actually laughable and fun to watch in a very odd and morbid way. That was not the case with "End of the World"; it was just downright bad.
The entire series of events were just too random, and it made absolutely no sense that it was centered around the family of four - those that were the main protagonists of the movie. Plus the movie was just lacking scenes of random destruction and such to make it seem like the events were on a grander scale and not just centered upon following the four main characters.
The special effects and CGI in the movie, well... Let's just give them credit for trying to make something unique and memorable. It was memorable, sure, but not as for being something positive and outstanding. Sadly no, the special effects in the movie were questionable at best. But hey, at least they tried.
As for the acting in the movie. Well, you know what you are getting yourself into with a movie such as this. And they did deliver on that account, for better or worse. But take into consideration that the acting performers had next to nothing to work with in terms of a proper script, dialogue or special effects. And that was painstakingly visible on the screen.
If you enjoy natural disaster movies, like I do, then give "End of the World" a wide berth, because it is just not worth it. There are far better disaster movies available out there on the market, despite them being few and far in between.

If you love to watch and critique terrible moves this is another great option to add to your list. Always excited when the Asylum comes out with another masterpiece!

One thing that this movie has going for it is that it doesn't fail to surprise. With every single passing minute I just keep thinking "it can't get worse than this, now can it?" Oh, yes it can and it does so progressively.
If you start counting "cinema sins" you'd probably come the conclusion that this movie is a demon from hell.
Don't watch it. Just don't. There's nothing to gain and there are better bad movies to waste your time on.

Riveting, in the sense that it is like rivets being shot into your head. As a Sunday morning SyFy film it's perfectly adequate viewing, but often grabs your attention and you have to rewind to check that the special effects really were at the level of 1950s stop go animation. The lack of continuity should place this film on any university course as a case study of what happens when it is totally ignored. Acting and characterisation were entirely adequate, but would have been helped by having a semblance of a plot to work to.
Why 2 stars - well, it is eminently more watchable than some of the dreary romance stuff you get on some film channels, which are not even worth reviewing.
Finally, as a serious question, what does a "second second assistant director" do?

I thought 'well, let's give it a try. Probably one of the cheap generic catastrophe movies' - and it didn't disappoint :) It was way worse than expected but that made it really fun to watch. Plus the occasional eye-candy. If you're looking for a really bad movie to have a good laugh I highly recommend this one.

I've been watching crappy worlds ending movies, and loving the terrible SFX and acting. Still amazes me the special kind of crap that can be produced for 0.5 million and makes it onto Amazon Prime - they have some excellent original content (Goliath, The Boys Carnival Row etc...) but I guess lacking in quantity they just purchase your garden variety junk. Good for killing 90 mins if you are bored or drunk ( I was) a poor mans San Andreas style movie.
On a positive note, several great racks and a few good nips on display from the female cast - not a lot of redeeming features from the males...

Came on to IMDB to see if anyone else thought this movie was made as a joke? Made in 2018? I saw better special effects on Thunderbirds. It's really quite fascinating.

The drinking game to go with this movie should be to take a drink every time you think about not watching the rest of the movie. The worst CGI I've ever seen, they didn't even try.

I love a good disaster movie. I usually enjoy it even if it isn't all that good. But this movie is really bad. Ridiculously bad special effects. Hokey dialogue filled with cliches. Some of the acting was okay but the script was so bad the actors didn't have much to work with. Lots of continuity errors-the father and daughter are walking in the woods, safely away from the city and the next moment they are back in the city. What the hell! Then they're supposed to be running from a volcano but they begin to stroll at a leisurely pace so they can have a heart to heart chat. The whole thing is ridiculous.

You know how it goes with Asylum. Take a well made blockbuster movie and rip the pants out of it with 3rd rate effects and 2nd rate actors, A rainy sunday afternoon movie when there's absolutely nothing else to watch on Tv.

I know... this is as low as a movie can go. The family are the clever ones? The ones that know where to go, yet the movie makes them the magnets for the problems, they follow them only 😂😂
I wanted to laugh at the middle school level script, sorry kids.
I laughed a lot, so gave them a 2.

I tend to review these movies based on what they had to work with, not unreasonable expectations. For a movie with no familiar actors, an obviously low budget for special effects, and a senseless plot, it was really entertaining and kept me interested.
Part of the entertainment value is how the movie takes itself so seriously when it is so ridiculous. It's basically a ripoff of many other disaster films. Don't cancel any plans but if you have nothing to do with a few hours to kill, End of the World wouldn't be the worst way to spend some time. I like watching these type of movies with the kids because they are clean.
