This week’s movie offerings visit the present, future and possible end.
In the present tense, we have the teen romance “The Spectacular Now.” Looking toward the future, we have the horror movie, “You’re Next.” And for those who want to see things through to their conclusion, we have the apocalypse comedy, “The World’s End.”
Kristen Meinzer weighs in with her thoughts, as usual. In addition to co-hosting the Movie Date podcast, Kristen is culture producer for The Takeaway.
