An amusing and funny film about extraterrestrial invasion including thrills , chills , violence and lots of humor with tongue-in-cheek. This is a fun ¨buddy¨ movie in which a group of old friends try to remember old times by drinking beers in their previous small town Newton Haven , Herefordshire, England , where they lived, but of course things go wrong, and that's why an alien invasion took place and our friends have to go to any lengths to stand up to them as they try to surrogate themselves . Packed with film references , the picture mines most of its laughs from the collision of the naughty bunch of friends and the village inhabitants ways , a backwater of English naffness that suddenly experiencing in crescendo of disarmingly incredible chase secenes and violent fights . Following ¨Shaun of the dead¨ and ¨Hot Fuzz¨, director Edgar Wright and actors Simon Pegg and Nick Frost teamed up again in 2013 for a new parody of classic film genres . If the first combined romantic comedy with terror and the second was a parody of police genre , this last of the stupendous trilogy is an acid apocalyptic comedy . With a script like the two previous ones by Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg , the film is magnificently performed by an ensemble cast in which the actors who give life to the five friends stand out. Simon Pegg's straight-faced acting -amid high-calibre cast comedy stalwarts and legit luminaries- holds the plot together while reflecting the movie's essentially respectful attitude towards the action movie . Joining them are great actors , such as : Rosamund Pike , Pierce Brosnan and David Bradley.
The editing is sincerely frenetic and the violence , though sometimes ridiculous , strong and bloody . Evocative ambiance and appropriate settings , excellent special effects , enhanced by the brilliant and colorful photography carried out by a good cameraman : Bill Pope . Being shot in The Gardener's Arms Public House, Letchworth , The Cork Public House, Welwyn Garden City, The Peartree Public House, and Parkway Bar, Welwyn . As well as exciting and nail-biting musical score by Steven Price . This is an acclaimed and notorious film from director Edgar Wright who delivers the goods with skillness and aplomb enough . Edgar is an English filmmaker , screenwriter, producer, and actor . He is best known for his comedic Three Flavours Cornetto film trilogy consisting of Shaun of the Dead (2004), Hot Fuzz (2007), and The World's End (2013), made with recurrent collaborators Simon Pegg, Nira Park and Nick Frost. He also collaborated with them as the director of the television series Spaced and his last hit was : Last Night in Soho (2021). Rating The World's End : 7/10 . Better than average . Worthwhile watching.
