An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

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

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.

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.

The World's EndEdgar nails it again with Simon Pegg and even though the concept may resemble to it's earlier installments its still a promising one.
