4:44 Last Day on Earth 2011

4:44 Last Day on Earth (2011)     She's a painter, he's an actor, they live in a large apartment high above New York City.  We see how they spend their day but this will be their last day together.  The next day the world comes to an end a few seconds before or after 4:44.  Many will still hope for some kind of miracle but these two have accepted their fate.
     You will find this to be good if you like to watch people go about their day with normal activities and a huge elephant in the room?  Filled with scenes about other people around the world during this extraordinary day.  About halfway through, I just gave up and fast forwarded to nearly the end so I could see what the end would be like.  Would this be just almost normal, like their day?  2* (I didn't like this movie)

82 min, Drama directed by Abel Ferrara with Willem Dafoe, Shanyn Leigh, Natasha Lyonne, Paul Hipp, Dierdra McDowell, Triana Jackson, Trung Nguyen, Anita Pallenberg, Jose Solano.

Note:  Blockbuster 3 1/2*, imdb 4.5 out of 10, 50% critic 30% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
