8 Great Films That Never Should Have Worked

6. This Is The End (2013)

This Is The End Seth Rogan, Jonah Hill, James Franco, and all their friends play fictionalized versions of themselves during the apocalypse. When I saw the trailers, I thought "oh, that's a good popcorn movie," but then it came out and people were raving about it. It got an 84% on Rotten Tomatoes! Let me put that into perspective: Forrest Gump, a Best Picture winner adored by probably everyone you know has a 71% on Rotten Tomatoes. That's right--the movie where James Franco stars AS James Franco is technically more critically acclaimed than Forrest Gump. In fact, the movie was so successful in America, that it's being re-released in theaters--people love it that much! If you're still skeptical about This Is The End, get over it. Go see this movie.
