A
signature brew of camaraderie, knockabout humor, excessive
quaffing, questionable life choices, hand-to-hand combat,
and explosive surprises,
The World’s End reteams director Edgar Wright with
actors Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, following their hits
Shaun of the Dead (2004) and Hot Fuzz (2007).
The tale
of
The World’s End begins on June 22nd, 1990.
In their suburban U.K. town of Newton Haven, five boys in
the prime of their teenage youth celebrate the end of school
by attempting an epic pub crawl together. Despite their
enthusiasm and the downing of a slew of pints of beer, they
fall short of seeing their quest through, to the last pub on
their list, The World’s End.
Twenty-odd
years later, “the five musketeers” have each left their
hometown and are now husbands, fathers, men with careers –
with the flashing-red-light exception of their voluble
onetime ringleader, Gary King (Simon Pegg), who is now a
40-year-old man trapped at the cigarette end of his teens.
The irrepressible Gary, keenly aware of his estrangement
from his onetime closest friend Andy (Nick Frost), becomes
hellbent on trying “The Golden Mile” drinking marathon
again. He convinces Andy, Steven (Paddy Considine), Oliver
(Martin Freeman), and Peter (Eddie Marsan) to stage an
encore, and one Friday afternoon they are all reunited. Gary
is in his element: the mandate is one night, five guys,
twelve pubs – imbibing at least one pint apiece at each
establishment. Arriving in Newton Haven, they re-encounter
Oliver’s sister Sam (Rosamund Pike), for whom Gary and
Steven each still carry a torch.
As the
gang attempts along the way to reconcile their past and
present, an increasingly insane and dangerous series of
encounters with old haunts and acquaintances makes them
realize that the real struggle is for the future, not just
theirs but humankind’s. Reaching The World’s End is the
least of their worries…
