THE WORLD'S END

Arguably the weakest of the three films, ‘The World’s End’ tackles much darker and weightier subjects than its predecessors - and yet Wright, ever the genius, manages to find the laughs (and plenty of them) in between emotional confessions and confrontations. Fans also might not be in favour of our dynamic duo Pegg and Frost playing characters who spend the majority of the film at odds with one another.

Even with zombie apocalypses and all-out gun fights to their credit, ‘The World’s End’ boasts some of the most elaborate, exciting, funny and unique fight scenes that rival any Bruce Willis film. Without a karate-chop or roundhouse kick to be seen, these action sequences are exactly what they hope to portray - drunk men fighting aliens, with the aid of bar stools, bottles, moxie and resourcefulness, all while downing a pint and pausing for well-earned laughter.

Unfortunately, the film's final act is rather bleak, with a tongue-in-cheek element instead of their signature upbeat and comical style, leaving you with a feeling of wanting, in more ways than one.

While an unintentional trilogy in the beginning, the first two films display a certain cohesion in both tone, look and humour. ‘The World’s End’ still has the comedy, but is definitely a standalone film, in spite of the cast, fence-jumping and, of course, Cornettos. It still satisfies your “ice cream” craving, but just barely.
