He was told that he would die alone. But he died with his family, friend, and colleague/student.

The reality of this scene.

In the beginning, our protagonists are alarmed by the comet, and the people ignore it.

In the end, the people are alarmed by the comet, and our protagonists (try to) ignore it.

I always respect a movie that has the balls to actually show the world ending

The final scene where everyone tries to chat to hide their fear is really realistic. I went through a situation like that. When I was 6 years old, my mother had a traffic accident at night, the adults in the family were all in the hospital while my mother was having surgery. At home, there were only me and a few cousins. We all knew my mother's situation was very critical but we all deliberately avoided it. We sat all day talking about everything in the world, but during that whole day, fear never disappeared from our voices. They all realized that the other was scared but they pretended it didn't exist. Sadly, my mother did not make it. The last scene of the movie really made me remember the feeling on that terrible day, a feeling of fear that I will never forget. (sorry if there any translate error i use gg translate)

Jesus Christ, this ending hit me like a truck. The scene where they're talking at the table and they run out of things to say so they just try to make things up to distract them from unavoidable doom made me shad a tear. Amazing movie.

I love how they show little clips of animals. Almost every “end of the world” movie shows humans in their last moments but no one considers that animals are also part of the life of this planet.

I like how for the whole movie the world just ignores the apocalypse except for these people, and in the end they're the ones trying to ignore it.

"The thing of it is, we really did have everything, didn't we. I mean, when you think about it." -Seriously underrated line. If only because we never do.

[MrMongoose]

I actually liked that the planet was destroyed at the end, I know that sounds weird but I'm fed up of 95% of movies having a happy ending. And the scene with them trying to pretend it was a normal dinner but also you could see they were terrified made me cry

[rehanpoonawalla]

"the thing of it is, we really did have everything didn't we?"
That line. That line sent chills up my spine.

"Every disaster movie starts with the government ignoring a scientist"

[missk]

Everyone: *panics*
That one native dude: 🎉🗿🥁

[scottlouis]

“We really did have everything, didn’t we? I mean, when you think about it.” I cried. He didn’t die alone. 🥺🥺🥺

[minhhieunguyen]

The whole movie really emphasized the pure truth:
- how politicians are telling lies
- how powerful technology bilionaires are
- the privilege of rich people
- the ignorance of people about scientific threats

[trixxite]

The fact that this family is spending their last moments together as millions are dying by the second gives me goosebumps

The baby who's getting a bath always hits me the hardest

[Damarlo]

This was the scariest part of the film to me. All of it, just gone. And there was nothing they could do. They just sat and enjoyed each other's company for a few precious moments. Terrified me.

[ronherrera]

This is by far one of the most realistic world destruction I've ever seen in a movie. My respect to a movie that is so raw about it.

[leandrotupas]

The dialogue sounds happy but you can see the immediate fear in their eyes knowing that the blast is going to wipe them all out instantly

[rhinokakapo]

it's been like two years and this ending still emotionally wrecks me. i haven't even watched the whole film. it's just perfect.
