How It Ends Reviews
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
Delivers the vague shape of the apocalypse, but it's a frustrating sit, continually interrupting compelling stretches of drama and terror with low-wattage stunts and tedious sequences of back roads survival.
Lyles' Movie Files
Jeffrey Lyles
Should begin with you not loading this one in your Netflix queue. It has potential, but squanders all of its goodwill and audience patience by the time the end credits roll.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
You're better off not even beginning.
Common Sense Media
Renee Schonfeld
Violent, profanity-filled tale lacks logic and resolution.
Cultured Vultures
Charlie Ceates
How It Ends is truly unique in the fact that it's the only disaster or post apocalypse film to leave me bored. The cinematic version of watching paint dry.
The Hollywood Outsider
Amanda Sink
How It Ends is a mildly effective thriller with an ending that will leave some viewers frustrated.
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
The desire to fast-forward becomes almost overpowering.
Den of Geek
Alec Bojalad
How It Ends would have been well served to ask itself a few big questions.
Consequence
Randall Colburn
It's always just a bit too easy to see the writer's hand at work, which serves to undercut immersion and identification.
The Young Folks
Nguyên Lê
The story has a clear-cut destination, but the technique makes the journey there and there itself aimless while watching and pointless when done.
The Twisted Girl Next Door
Chauncey K. Robinson
You won't beg for the two hours of your life back after watching this film. It had it's moments.
Film Inquiry
Josh Martin
Even with a good hook, How It Ends suffers from a lack of vision, which is exactly what you don't need in an effects-heavy disaster movie.
Forbes
Paul Tassi
This is a mediocre post-apocalyptic movie that turns into a downright horrible one by refusing to provide any semblance of meaningful answers about its central mystery.
The Daily Dot
Eddie Strait
It's competently made and easy to watch, but you know every move the thriller wants to make before it happens.
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Charles Mudede
Forest Whitaker's performance is just terrible. You can tell the director, David M Rosenthal, had no power over him. He just did his character-which the script failed to fully develop and exploit-his own damn way.
Decider
Joe Reid
Theo James has gotten good at playing this one kind of protagonist; he's like the exact midpoint between all of the overwhelmed-but-capable disaster movie heroes you've ever seen.
InSession Film
Nyle Coleman
If anything it generates more questions and provides no answers, all as the film is preparing to close.
