In the third, standalone installment of Edgar Wright's unofficial Cornetto trilogy, The World's End, five old friends hilariously attempt to finish a pub crawl that nearly killed them twenty years earlier. Directed in Wright's signature style, with perfectly choreographed scenes and sharp British humor, the group encounters their past and future selves along the way, as well as beings of a very different nature. The World's End addresses themes such as past mistakes, fallibility, forgiveness, and what it means to be human in a highly individual way.
