Review of The World's End (2013) by Dylan M — 02 Jan 2016

What a great finale to The Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy. If you are a fan of Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, there is no reason why you shouldn't think The Worlds End is a another fun movie. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are back again and better than before.

Pegg plays a middle aged bum who's stuck in his past wants to enjoy life. The movie is about him bringing back his old friends from high school to revist to their old town to complete this beer mile that they couldn't finish in the past.

The movie has so many good things going for it. Simon Pegg is gold and its probably his best performance out of the three films. I really liked the role switch between Pegg and Frost. The characters in the film are great.

One of the best things about how Edgar Wright handles these movies, is how much effort he puts in the script and developing his characters. Each one is so well written into the film that it makes enjoy the film even more.

The dialogue is hysterical. The banter between all of the characters will have you jumping out of your seat The movie is just so clever. Its paced so well that if you look away for a second, you can miss out on a critical plot point.

These are the kind of movies I love. The ones that go so fast you don't want your eyes to leave the screen. It's also a shot really well. The cinematography in film is great. All the scenes looked beautiful and made the movie look more vivid in many ways.

My biggest flaw in the film is the same as Hot Fuzz, the ending. They definitely improved on their mistakes but I still feel the movie dragged on towards the end just a little too much. I just wanted it to wrap up a little smoother.

But that's really it. Overall The Worlds End was fantastic. Well written and directed, Edgar Wright finishes off the trilogy with a bang.
