My wife and I were really looking forward to World’s End because we loved Hot Fuzz and Shawn of the Dead so much. While there were quite a few laughs in World’s End, we found the story to be ridiculous to the point of being absurd. By the end it felt like they were just making things up to bring it to some grand climatic ending. After one scene we looked at each other and said, “Seriously? Did they just do that?”
Aside from some decent humor, I did like the fight scenes. They were totally unrealistic, but nevertheless fun. The characters in the movie are all just average middle aged men, but they showed surprising agility in fighting, especially Nick Frost as Andy. It was a hoot to see him turn into a warrior.
I’d save this movie for DVD.

What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Best app ever!
RunPee is the only app we use before movies and afterward. not only does RunPee tell you when it’s a good time to leave the theater, kids these days ask if there’s anything during/after the credits, and RunPee lets parents know when there might be some thing that a kid might miss!
RunPee has tidbits, ratings, leave the theater times, and lengths. This is THE VITAL APP for watching any movie!
We used it when my wife was pregnant, and we have recommended it to every pregnant gal we know! How else can you enjoy a movie when you have to go out so often?!

Creator and developer of the RunPee app. When something doesn’t work right in the app it’s pretty much his fault. 🙂
Aspiring author. Would like to finish his “Zombie Revelations” trilogy if he could break away for working on RunPee and the cottage he’s building for RunPee Mom.
