What it's about:
Set in a too-near future, the movie explores what people will do when humanity's last days are at hand. As the respective journeys of Dodge and Penny converge, the two spark to each other, and their outlooks, if not the world's, brighten.
What the critics thought:
"Knock knock." "Who's there?" "Armageddon". "Armageddon who?" "Armageddon tired of watching this lousy movie."
- Philip French, The Observer
"The genuine sweetness of the friendship that develops between these two wins out over any of the movie's failings."
- Ian Buckwalter, The Atlantic
"Unsure whether it wants to be a quirky, sad-eyed indie pixie or a brassy, raunchy broad, it veers uneasily between the two, never quite settling into a comfortable or recognizable groove."
- Ann Hornaday, Washington Post
