Reaction
The film has a 66 percent approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 56 critic reviews with an average rating of 6/10. “It sometimes feels more like a collection of sketches than a coherent tale,” says the majority of reviews, “yet How It Ends is a comic vision of the apocalypse with fleeting moments of genius.”
How does the movie how it ends end?
The movie ends without informing us whether the volcanic gases catch up with them, if they die of starvation or a landslide, or if they manage to live. The producers apparently went with the thought flow that these tragic occurrences would leave you with no explanations, thus the film’s finale also leaves you hanging.
