Ok.

Thanks for the input.

It has gotten a pretty hard push from Netflix and it was released today.

It’s pretty good so far.

Anything else you want to add that might be remotely useful?

If you are going to start a thread, and someone says that he hasn't heard of it, maybe you are the one who should contribute more useful information about the topic.

Watched it last night when it first dropped. Was looking forward to it.

It was an OK movie with a very meh ending. Very unfulfilling ending and beat you over the head with the “breakdown of society everyone will be out to get you” angle.

I honestly had never heard of it.

Your OP offered zero information about the movie/show. It was a dear diary post. What type of response did you want?

Useful information.

Hmmmmm...

“Netflix”

“Drop”

Do I need drive to your house and turn it on for you?

Damn.

fricking reading comprehension can be a bitch I guess...let me spell it out for you...

If you post something about a movie with no information about it, and someone says that they haven't heard of it, then how about provide an explanation about what it is about rather than being a smartass about it.

I happened to see it in the Netflix menu earlier today but did not look at it. I saw this thread and opened it hoping to gain some insight about whether I should give it a shot, and you literally posted nothing about it other than one actor's name.

When I saw drop, I thought something was being canceled.

If there were ever a thread asking which actor/actress "you" cannot watch, he tops my list. I can't explain it other than his crazy eye and the way he smirk talks. He has that signature smirk speak, look to the side and lean in mannerism that I simply cannot deal with.

Yeah I thought this was about a show being cancelled too. Apparently it’s a new Netflix movie and I read somewhere that Forrest Whitaker is in it but I didn’t see much else about it.

The trailer is befitting of a major box office pic, been waiting to see this one.

:Spoilers:
















They don’t say what exactly is causing these events.


In a movie with so much build up and leaving you hanging at the end like that, the title “How It Ends” feels very pretentious and shitty. The movie has some good and some bad but it’s ironic that the worst part of the movie happens to be the title. Maybe they meant for it to be like that.

U want to post a trailer or poster or something? I don’t think I’ve heard of this.

I watched it late last night. My take is....

SPOILERS:








The big black clouds raining down fire at the end gave me the impression that it’s the biblical apocalypse.

There was a nice mystery and a good buildup, and then... totally crappy ending.

Basically the movie had no ending. Really had no middle either. Beginning was great, the rest was pointless. Bad, lazy writing.
