It's honestly random things I experience and feel like writing about for the entertainment of my friends and others. If you don't agree with me I really don't care, so please don't try to piss and moan about my pissing and moaning.

Seeking a Friend for the End of the World
I took a shot at some rom-com stuff I generally dislike. Steve Carrell and Keira Knightly carry this strange, dark rom-com about the what would happen at the impending doom of an asteroid 70-miles wide hitting Earth, killing everything. Carrell's wife jumps out of his car upon the news and is never to be seen again. Carrell starts piecing his life together and trying to figure out what what to do. His neighbor (Knightly) is crying outside and is welcomed into Carrell's apartment with the promise "I won't steal anything if you don't rape me". She falls asleep after smoking some weed and that's presumably the end of it. Carrell then finds her to get out of town before an impending riot kills them both. They get out of town and her adventure to find her parents and Carrell's adventure to find his high school sweetheart & "love of his life" begins. Interesting cameos and some funny/dramatic stuff happens. I won't ruin it, but it has some decent moments and it's well acted/done. The cameos are the strength, especially Rob Cordroy (standard).
Bottom Line: 6.1 out of 10. Kind of boring (to be expected in a rom-com)and it gets a little long in the tooth, but there is some fun and endearing parts. Seriously, the cameos are pretty cool. I'd take a flier since it's free on a movie channel currently.
