Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.
Cassandra Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
adonis98-743-186503 Five friends who reunite in an attempt to top their epic pub crawl from twenty years earlier unwittingly become humanity's only hope for survival. Like the previous 2 terrible films 'The World's End' is packed with terrible humor, bland characters and a terrible plot and mix of different genres all mash up in one forgettable, gigantic and boring mess of a british film. (0/10)
gordonroad-62850 Having really enjoyed Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz I was looking forward to how Edgar Wright and co. would parody the sci-fi genre. And it didn't disappoint.What I liked most was the theme of recapturing your youth, with how Garry King tries to desperately bring back his group of friends in order to relive one crazy night just after they had finished school. The dynamic between these five was so great that they really did feel like a group of friends that had reunited for one last hurrah. This really sold the film to me.The comedy was top notch once again like the two previous films in this trilogy and had me consistently laughing throughout. What surprised me though were the genuine heartfelt moments amongst the madcap plot which were very effective. Discussing Peter's bullying, Garry's alcoholism and Andy's wife leaving him were all moments of sincerity which were ironically quite sobering.The aesthetics of the film were visually-pleasing, the cinematography to a good standard and all the performances were solid. The one criticism I have is that the narrative suffers from a real lack of structure at times but aside from that this is another effective comedy from Edgar Wright.
Paul Evans I must start by admitting to have reviewed this previously and removed it, last time round I must have been in a bad mood, I criticised it for going off the boil, however in recent times I've gotten so into it, it's meant to be bonkers, outrageous and utterly over the top and it sure is. I think there's something incredibly British about the humour, the world could come to an end, but there's still time for nostalgia, and more importantly there's still time for a pint. It's still perhaps my least favourite of The Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy, but the other two are that good, and hard acts to follow. It is clever, it's witty, and which of us doesn't know a Gary? If only it didn't have to be a trilogy, would have loved more from this successful group, it's an underrated gem.
sleijeri Seen many of the Pegg and Frost movies and most of them have been funny, but this just didn't deliver. The movie has a good idea for a story, but somehow I just didn't see how this would have fit in to that.The "blanks" was a good surprise for the movie and how the movie reveled it was surely nice! I liked it, because I did't read anything about this film (obviously to avoid spoilers) before I watched this. So from that side, the movie had a nice surprise to it.
