Review of How It Ends (2018) by Radixlecti84 — 13 Jul 2018

How it ends has a great aesthetic to it and you might well enjoy it if you don't go into it expecting a hollywood style disaster movie. It's a long movie with a slow pace, for me it was just the break I needed from the noisy mess most disaster movies turn out to be.

The moments between the protagonist and his would be father in law are well acted and there is a sense of tangibility to the events that unfold throughout the movie. As a viewer you have no idea what is going on, the characters themselves are just as ill informed. Many reviewers seem to see this as a negative however it's refreshing to have a movie where the main character isn't a Scientist/Adviser who is suddenly called up and handed all the facts. It's a story about normal people in extraordinary circumstances trying to reach their loved ones.
