Continuity mistake: In the scene where Dodge and Penny enters Olivia's last known residence, Penny one of the door windows. She then gets access to the door lock on the inside and she opens the door. As Penny and Dodge enters, it is visible that the window is broken. This is shown both in the first and second shot. At the third shot it is easily noticeable that the same window behind them has been magically repaired, and is in a normal, unbroken condition. The fourth shot shows that the window is again broken.

Dodge and Penny are two sweet, odd yet relatable people who meet during the chaos of the apocalypse as there's only days until a planet-killing meteor strike obliterates life on Earth! Dodge wants to see his high school crush, while Penny just wants to enjoy life and make it home to be with her family awhile-and the two embark on a journey together to do just that amid the crisis. Sometimes funny, other times a bit poignant, the story is just as the title states-they don't want to be alone for the End, and end up discovering one another in this comedy-drama-romance! Keira Knightly and Steve Carell might not seem like they should have much in common-or their characters-but there's a plausible sweetness to their getting together and a on-screen chemistry that makes the end particularly affecting! It might not make you roll in the aisles or laugh big laughs, but it does have some funny moments, thoughtful moments and, well-it's the end of the world. Give it a look and root for Dodge and Penny.
