Good start, but then it gets ruined
Excellent, a Must See
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
Despite not necessarily having some of the qualities of the other two 'Cornetto films' this is more of a character study than what we've seen before with the narrative showing the personal evolution undertaken by Pegg's Gary King. A lot more poignant than its predecessors the Worlds end still has the Wright features and style which add a lot of fun to the run time. Just as brisk and fun as the other two it's perfect for a rainy day
I expected something better from this film because it brings together some great actors and the director is known for his former films, which I liked a lot. But I was disappointed and I was praying for this film to end when I was watching it.
I have just watched this on Netflix, thank goodness I didn't go to the cinema to see it. Maybe it's my age but the whole premise of a pub crawl with unwilling participants, on tea total, which turn up anyway was a bit far fetched. Then we had the village with 12 pubs, how do they make any money? Taken over by androids with some higher motivation of galactic good or was it evil, who knows or even cares. So it was really just an excuse for 5 actors to badly act drunk and destroy a lot of zombies, sorry robots in ridiculous fighting scenes. Not very funny and a complete waste of talent and time.
This is definitely the weirdest movie in Simon and Edgar's trilogy and it's also the weakest. But, it's in no way a bad movie. It's very funny, has decent action scenes, a great cast and Simon and Nick's great chemistry. This movie is definitely weird though. It goes from a casual comedy about replicating a pub crawl to ALIEN INVASION. Yes, aliens have take over the town and they have to keep doing their pub crawl to make sure they don't notice that they know what's up. It's weirder than Shaun Of The Dead, for sure, but probably because we've never seen an alien invasion story using this sort of plot before. We've all seen zombie stories before so that's probably why it's weirder. Anyways, it's a good movie and a great way to end the trilogy.
