In itself a fine film, not too serious drama-comedy with excellent acting, but it was a bit too boring and monotonous. Like any romantic film, there is also a too predictive ending.
The only thing I didn't see coming and struggled with was the twist it took. I had hoped it would be like Larry Crowne that she would help him find a love and vice versa. Since the age difference was quite big between the 2. I just didn't think they fit together and really didn't expect them to become a set. Had previously hoped that he would be reunited with his childhood sweetheart and that she had encountered her dream guy on the way but unfortunately that was not the case. That was the biggest letdown. Could not therefore feel the love and chemistry between them. No.

After the Space Shuttle Deliverance explodes, it is certain that the world will end in 21 days. As the world around him spirals into an orgy of sex, booze and drugs, Dodge [Steve Carrell] is devastated that his wife has left him and makes an attempt to end his life. But he ends up in the end. in his car with neighbor Penny [Keira Knightley], who is also suffering from heartbreak. Dodge takes Penny on a quest to see his childhood sweetheart one last time in this pre-apocalyptic road movie with loose ideas held together by the two protagonists. Carrell and Knightley are excellent and have a nice chemistry that smooths out the creases in the screenplay quite well.
