The Word’s End Review By: Nicolas Souza If you enjoy laughing at Simon Pegg jumping over fences and killing zombies in Shawn of the Dead or Nick Frost shooting two guns whilst jumping through the air in Hot Fuzz , then get your hangover cure ready to drink all the way to The World’s End . Edgar Wright ( Scott Pilgram versus the World ) returns to the helm of this third, and final, entry of the “ Blood and Ice Cream Trilogy .” Front man Simon Pegg and his right hand man Nick Frost along with a lineup of actors from the previous two films are back. After surviving the zombie apocalypse and ending the threat of the murderous Neighborhood Watch Alliance, they are ready to drink the night away, until everything goes horribly wrong. The World’s End introduces us to Gary King ( Pegg ). A down on his luck loser who is forever haunted by the one thing he never finished in his childhood, The Golden Mile; the task of having at least one pint at all twelve local pubs on the same night

The World's End Review By: MattInRC The appropriately-named The World's End is the funniest comedy of the year. If you've seen Actor Simon Pegg before his Star Trek: Into Darkness days, you'll remember him as the guy who created Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz , both hilarious takes on their respective genres. Since then, we've seen zombie and conspiracy flicks get a lot more serious leading to a 2013 Summer seemingly inundated with them. Luckily, Pegg's new project The World's End doesn't take itself too seriously, merging two seemingly unconnected things - drinking and alien invasion - into one of the funniest and most rewarding comedies we've seen in awhile. THE WORLD'S END Junket Interviews With Cast- Gary King ( Pegg ) is a washed-up drunken loser who can't seem to move on from his free teenage days. Institutionalized for a brief period and sporting the same 'trenchcoat fashion' from his youth, his best days are clea

We had the pleasure of being invited to attend  THE WORLD'S END  junket in San Francisco earlier this month.  And who other to send but our main man Nic Souza. Mr. Souza (if your nasty) also attended the junket for STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS in May for us. It was like Simon Pegg and Nic were best Friends when they sat down and talked this go around. The day after the San Francisco premier of the last entry in the Blood and Ice Cream trilogy The World's End , which was followed by a brief Q&A session with Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, and Edgar Wright , Here is Nic's interview below: I sat down for a round table interview with the trio. Interviewer: Last night during the brief Q&A, you talked about wanting to show parts of England that weren't London. Then in your movies you have parts of England that aren't London have zombies, they have murderers, they have what we see in this movie. Edgar Wright: Which is basically saying, “don't go to England.”

Most pub crawls have a sticky ending, one way or another. Some finish with fisticuffs, many with vomit, others with a mere killer hangover. But The World's End promises to take things to a whole new level with an apocalyptic outcome to the reunion of five old friends. The film sees Simon Pegg as something of a failure in life, who sees a chance to recreate his teenage glory days by reuniting his old friends to complete the pub crawl they once abandoned. Only it turns out that their home town has changed in the years since they left: now it's crawling with what look very much like alien invaders. Uh. Oh. The World's End stars Nick Frost, Eddie Marsan, Martin Freeman and Paddy Considine with Pegg as the central quintet of drinkers; Rosamund Pike plays Freeman's sister (and Pegg's old flame) and you'll see a few more familiar faces pop up in this trailer. Edgar Wright , of course, directs this finale to the Blood And Ice Cream trilogy. Watch the trailer a

Jack Reacher Review By: MattInRC Jack Reacher is a fun, action-packed movie that's a little too smart for its own good. But we're OK with that. Considering the violent and mind-numbing December we've been forced to endure, it seemed like Tom Cruise's Jack Reacher could have become a victim of circumstance. The events of Sandy Hook have shocked us all, and the studios, ever worried about public opinion, actually considered postponing the film due to its violent opening. Luckily, cooler heads prevailed, resulting in a well-acted and solidly shot effort, even if some of the comedy is definitely out of place. Based on the series of books by Lee Child , Jack Reacher is a detective thriller. Don't let some of the trailers suggest it's a yuck-fest: it's a little smart, a lot violent, and very disturbing in other places. Cruise plays the titular Reacher, an ex-military MP and sniper turned drifter who's entirely off the digital grid. He

We’re creeping ever closer to Tom Cruise bringing Lee Child’s Jack Reacher to our screens, and now a new clip from the film is online courtesy of IGN. Point your eyeballs to the top of the page to see Jack in action – but beware of stray elbows. This latest snippet is, of course, intended to demonstrate once and for all that Cruise has what it takes to embody Child’s bruiser of a vigilante. And to be honest, he pulls it off nicely, schooling the five thugs who think they’ve cornered an easy target in the art of pain. Jack Reacher, adapted from Child’s book One Shot by writer/director Chris McQuarrie, finds the title character called in when a former military sniper stands accused of killing five people during a shooting spree. Watch the clip after the Jump... He insists he’s innocent and demands that Reacher investigate. But when Jack peels back the layers of the case, he discovers much more danger that he initially figured, especially from mysterious crime figure The Zec,

Here is the teaser trailer for Jack Reacher starring my main man Tom Cruise ! Apart from a decidedly not-from-the-books obsession with cars (at certain points you might think you’re watching a promo for the next Fast & Furious franchise outing), it definitely seems that Cruise is going all out to prove he’s got what it takes to embody Lee Child’s hard nut former MP. Adapted from the book One Shot , Reacher finds the man with a mental alarm clock in his head digging into the case of a series of sniper attacks in a US city. The prime suspect is a former military man himself who claims innocence and orders his defence team to get Reacher’s services. The case seems like a slam-dunk, but there’s the small matter of one of the shots missing its target. And soon Mr Jack realises there is much more to the whole affair... With Rosamund Pike, Robert Duvall, Richard Jenkins, Werner Herzog and David Oyelowo also among the cast, Jack Reacher smashes its way into our cinemas on December
