Great film with really awesome visuals as always from Edgar Wright. But I guess it is quite a popular opinion that this is the weakest one from the Cornetto trilogy.

[–] Conyak@lemmy.tf 23 points 1 year ago

Definitely the weakest of the three. It’s hard to top Hot Fuzz in my opinion. I watch that one two or three times a year.

Yeah, I'm a big fan of it but I think of the three it's the one with the least repeat viewing value. But it's a brilliant trilogy of comedies so it's still well above average.

I also think it's a shame that it got kind of overshadowed by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg's similarly titled 'This is The End' which came out a month earlier because between the two 'The World's End' tells a much more engaging story.

Yeah I was disappointed they had two too similar titles release so close together

Yea it was sad watching this after the first two. If the watch order were reversed it’d be an awesome film with even better “sequels”.

It isn't? I enjoyed it very much but it's definitely my least favourite. Lol

I tried to watch this last week. Couldn't find it anywhere but to order the blu ray. Damn!
