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.

about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.

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.
