The World's End Ratings & Reviews
- Kim KindlerJune 14, 2025I love the incredibly witty dialogue, the surprisingly intense Action scenes, and how emotional it allowes itself to get. But I really did not enjoy the ending. I feel like it was supposed to be the connective tissue thematically for the "Cornetto Trilogy" but it doesn't feel as tight as the rest of the movie. But I did enjoy Simon Pegg and Nick Frost especially being able to play something very different from their usual fare. So still a very fun time, even if it doesn't hit quite as hard for me as Wright normally does.
- Mister ArnMay 19, 2025An alien invasion offering the Earth peace and order runs into a free spirit that doesn't want to grow up. What's not to like? It's not perfect, but it is fun.
- RyezooFebruary 14, 2025I enjoyed this more on this second viewing at least five years later. Appreciate the crazy editing and snappy cinematography way more. Found this to be a lot of fun and really enjoyed the journey to all the pubs. Still what I remember what I didn’t like from the first viewing was still a problem. All I’ll say is that as soon as the bar lowers down, this movie looses its way. Stumbling in the last twenty minutes and the climatic pace comes to a screeching halt. Good thing is it bothered me a lot less this viewing then last time.
- Taylor SturgeJanuary 27, 2025The clear bottom spot of The Cornetto Trilogy, but regardless it’s still fucking great. Edgar Wright doesn’t miss.
- 匚卂尺ㄥJanuary 29, 2025🛸🖖Not sure how many times I have seen this film. Background info - loved Spaced, followed Simon Peggs career for years in things like Big Train and fully identify with the whole Pegg Frost dynamic being around their age and loving all things Adam and Joe, Park and Wright etc. Being from the area and familiar with the locations Worlds Ends was shot, it gives it an extra edge. It’s almost as if it was shot for me. Years back I migrated to Australia and was on a casual visit to the UK when me and my bestie visiting the area caught some of the location stuff and sets such as the huge alien figure and “first roundabout” sign - seemed to be the perfect movie for me. I have seen it a number of times but tonight all the stars aligned and with the event of covid it seems to have taken on an even more poignant and deeper meaning than ever before. I always though it was an “ok” movie but 8 years on from its release date I find it has not only matured well but I now consider it an underrated masterpiece. We followed the trilogy and watched Shawn of the dead, hot fuzz and worlds end in sequence over a few nights and really enjoyed them. So to sum up, worlds end - seemed far deeper and more meaningful this viewing, funnier and more jokes which I may behave previously missed, but with the event of covid it certainly seemed to hit home harder in its message. HVe another look at it and see if you agree. Previously I would have probably said 3 - 3.5 stars, but from tonight I have a different perspective and now I say 5*. Very enjoyable.
