All of the performances are fantastic. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, who have carried this trilogy, are incredible and they know how to play off each other.

| Original Score: A | Aug 16, 2024

Like what Wright, Pegg, and Frost did for horror and action, this third entry into the Cornetto Trilogy similarly lampooned while also paying tribute to the sci-fi genre, while also delivering plenty of heart.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Sep 20, 2023

[The movie takes] an exhausted genre and suffusing it with energy, wit, and technical bravado, but perhaps most importantly, three-dimensional characters whose serious interpersonal relationships extend the cultish material beyond its usual limitations.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Aug 25, 2022

This is more ambitious than Wright and Pegg’s previous pairings, daring to go a little darker and take on the arrested adolescence and the frustrations of adult accommodation...

| Aug 19, 2022

Another hour of drunken renewed bonding would have been wonderful, but the bright idea swerve of the alien invasion takes over and it all goes off the rails.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 26, 2022

In many ways, Gary is a more tragic extension of Pegg's titular character in Shaun of the Dead, a slacker who never got his sh*t together and is running out of time to do so.

A fantastic end to a terrific, largely unrelated trilogy.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Dec 16, 2020

In every instance that a meaningful exchange attempts to emerge, it's swiftly suppressed with loudmouthed antics and ludicrous skirmishes.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Dec 4, 2020

Benefits greatly from the undeniable chemistry between Pegg and Frost.

| Original Score: 3.0/4.0 | Sep 27, 2020

The World's End is comedy gold... underscored by heavier themes: What is the true meaning of friendship, how does being overly reliant on technology and consumerism affect us and how much of our inner child should we give up in order to become an adult?

| Jul 18, 2020

Raucous, crude, and funny, it's also touching and crushes genre boundaries with a deft touch.

| Original Score: A- | Jul 8, 2020

It is appropriate to say that Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost have closed one of the most bizarre British trilogies of recent times with 'The World's End'. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 7/10 | Jun 25, 2020

In some ways, THE WORLD'S END is the most interesting of the films retconned into a thematic trilogy by Edgar Wright and company. Dirtier, more melancholy and more poignant than the earlier entries.

| Feb 13, 2020

Sharp, smart and funny, [Edgar] Wright has played this to a tee.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 21, 2019

Shaun of the Dead mocks zombie movies and is a hell of a zombie movie. Hot Fuzz picks on buddy cop movies and is a great buddy cop movie. The World's End ridicules apocalyptic invasion movies and serves as a great apocalyptic invasion movie.

| Original Score: A | Aug 27, 2019

The World's End displays an ambidextrous wit that's uniquely English, and proves that not all Hangover farces have to be dumb and ugly.

| Aug 7, 2019

All the actors are not only superb, but through all the mayhem, hilarity and terror, the leads build multi-dimensional roles we grow to care about and genuinely hope survive.

| Jul 31, 2019

The film relies far less heavily on pop culture reference and cheap Comic-Con leaning fan service, in favor of a deeply personal tale of friendship and growing up.

| Original Score: 7.5/10 | Jul 16, 2019

Pegg holds it all together, going all-in as the man-child who may be mankind's last hope for survival. It's a take-no-prisoners kind of performance that may turn off some, but I found to be quite entertaining.

| Apr 9, 2019

The World's End is thoroughly likable, a little bittersweet and sometimes gleefully, cartoonishly fun. Any movie with a ridiculous robot fight in a pub is, on some level, all right by me.
