Entertainment Reviews:
Written and directed with blithe chutzpah and good instincts....Scafaria circumvents expectations at every turn... -- Grade: B+
Entertainment Weekly
Rating: 2/5 --
[It] unfortunately invites a lethal dose of scepticism towards its cutesy last-ditch matchmaking, obligatory road-trip plotting, and thinly funny jibes at the rest of humankind.

Daily Telegraph (UK)
The romance plays like a studio note and you barely believe it, but the movie wrapped around it is so watchable that you can let it be. This one last time.

Rating: 2/5 --
This convoluted rompocalypse seems unsure of what it really is, or indeed aspires to be.

Seeking a Friend for the End of the World is as insufferable as its title.

Financial Times
3 stars out of 5 -- Carell fits the hangdog-hero mould perfectly....It's handled sensitively: you should expect to shed a few tears by the time the countdown hits zero...
Total Film
4 stars out of 5 -- [H]ere writer and director Lorene Scafaria uses our doom as simply the backdrop for a charmingly lo-fi love story....A surprisingly bold and assured first feature.

Product Description:

In this romantic comedy, people strive to connect with those around them as the end of the world approaches. Screenwriter Lorene Scafaria (NICK AND NORAH'S INFINITE PLAYLIST) makes her directorial debut with this smart film.
