Leave the World Behind, Netflix’s post-apocalyptic drama , which stars Julia Roberts, has one particular concern that people have been airing on social media: It is far too lengthy. If you watch Netflix (and let’s be honest, who doesn’t? ), you are aware of how challenging it can be to choose what to watch.
About Leave the World Behind
Leave the World Behind, which debuted on Netflix at the end of the previous month, is currently the talk of the town. The movie, starring Julia Roberts, Ethan Hawke, and Mahershala Al, narrates the tale of two vacationing families struggling to live in the face of a terrifying worldwide calamity.
What appeared to be a widespread wave of cyberattacks throughout the United States soon escalates into something far more dangerous, sending many viewers running for cover behind their couches. The movie is based on the same-titled book published in 2020, and critics in the field seem to enjoy it.
The following is the official synopsis for Leave the World Behind: “Two strangers interrupt a family vacation on Long Island with news of a blackout. Both families must choose how to handle the impending catastrophe as the threat increases while also attempting to figure out where they fit into this disintegrating world.”
The film is produced by Higher Ground, the production company owned by former President Barack Obama and ex-First Lady Michelle Obama, as per The New York Times.
Reactions Of Viewers After Watching Leave The World Behind
However, everyone who has seen that the movie has the same query, and it all has to do with how the film ends. Although Leave the World Behind is currently #1 on Netflix’s movie charts, some viewers are not happy with the way the movie ends and are venting on social media. Others, on the other hand, have praised the popular movie and claimed that those who struggle with it have “missed the point.”
“Leave the World Behind needs a part 2 or something, because that ending felt like the start of the real movie,” one person wrote.
A second added:
“Leave the World Behind on Netflix is so good but that ending imma fight whoever made it like that.”
While a third remarked:
“Leave the World Behind ending just p**ses me off omg where is the rest of the movie like.”
Someone else vents:
“Leave the World Behind wasted such a good plot with that weak a** ending.”
Another one said,
“Just watched Leave the World Behind…. wtf was that ending?! F***ing waste of time.”
“I just finished Leave the World Behind. What kind of f***ing ending,” comments one person.
While another person pens:
“I really need to know what the producers of Leave the World Behind were thinking when they came up with that ending?”
Elon Musk Also Comments On The Movie
The Netflix movie even managed to ‘trigger’ a reaction from Tesla CEO Elon Musk.
On an abandoned roadway, the characters are attacked by self-driving Tesla cars in the aforementioned scene. Teslas can charge from solar panels even if the world goes fully Mad Max and there is no more petrol!’ wrote Elon Musk in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The way that Musk responded to the presentation of his vehicles in the film, “Best thing about LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND is it triggered Elon,” was humorous to see, despite the fact that Musk appeared to be irritated about it.
Someone else explains: “The fact that everyone is upset about that ending from the movie Leave the World Behind instead of actually LISTENING to what might possibly be happening in our future as a reality is the real disappointment here.”
