Miracle Mile grants us a poetic end in the face of absolute destruction. Someday, maybe, we'll re-emerge twinkling into the sun.

A master class in pacing and escalation, writer/director Steve De Jarnatt (Cherry 2000) crafts in Miracle Mile a John Hughes meets George Miller all-timer.

Its doomsday anxiety is more powerful than blockbuster disaster movies with much bigger budgets.

Edwards doesn't quite possess the gravitas necessary to authenticate the end of the world, but he holds Miracle Mile together amiably enough, such that we do actually care what happens.

Mile still packs a wallop, especially when everything goes to hell and our lovers are forced to confront their mortality. The gorgeous, unbearable feeling of doom that De Jarnatt evokes is, well, miraculous.
