Community Reviews
Viewers find 'It's Only the End of the World' a deeply emotional and complex film, marked by its intense family dynamics and minimalistic yet powerful dialogue. The performances, particularly by Vincent Cassel and Gaspard Ulliel, are frequently praised for their depth and authenticity. However, some viewers find the film's pace slow and its narrative style, heavy with close-ups and silences, somewhat challenging. Overall, the film is seen as a poignant exploration of familial love and conflict, leaving a lasting impression.
👍 Exceptional performances by the cast
👎 May feel slow and overly stylized for some
