Print The Los Angeles Times is committed to reviewing new theatrical film releases during the COVID-19 pandemic. Because moviegoing carries inherent risks during this time, we remind readers to follow health and safety guidelines as outlined by the CDC and local health officials. We will continue to note the various ways readers can see each new film, including drive-in theaters in the Southland and VOD/streaming options when available. Perhaps it’s all the rethinking we’ve had to do during this pandemic era, but the end-of-the-world genre has enjoyed some new beginnings of late. “How It Ends” is one of the more thoughtful and fun of these one-way tickets.
