Tietoja tästä elokuvasta

Steve Carell and Keira Knightley lead an all-star cast in this clever and heartwarming comedy that explores the crazy things people do when humanity's last days are at hand. Set in a too-near future, two neighbors, Dodge (Steve Carell) and Penny (Keira Knightley), react in their own unique ways to the announcement that a 70-mile-wide asteroid is en route to the Earth. He wants to return to his first love. She just wants to get back to her family. As the unlikely companions' respective journeys converge, their outlooks -- if not the world's -- brighten in surprising and hilarious ways. The feature directorial debut of screenwriter Lorene Scafaria (Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist), Seeking a Friend for the End of the World is being hailed as "funny and wonderfully poetic! Steve Carell and Keira Knightley are superb".(Claudia Puig, USA Today)

The movie is well executed and certainly worth your dollars , but the cliche ending leave you feeling a little empty. Still an excellent film, but it was so close to being top tier that I am bashing a bit because I wanted to love it more. Settled for great, could have been epic. Shoutout to Keira Kightley for doing a great job in bringing "Penny" to life, really good job.

Wow, I love Steve Carell but this movie had almost no laughs, no emotion, and no heart. It was hard to get through the whole movie without falling asleep. They could have done so much more with this. Please do not waste your money. Besides Evan Almighty this was one of Steve's worst movies ever.

I really thought this movie was entertaining. It invites you into the lives of two people who are different but are looking for the same thing. Keira's ...character was awesome, hopless romantic , witty and real ,I love watching her. And as for Mr. Steve Carell.. he is such a gentleman...and I appreciate his good guyness. Its a Tasteful movie to watch with a close friend or even alone...I give this movie 2 THUMBS UP! great plot
