The World's End

2013 · TMDB 6.8

Directed by Edgar Wright

Five friends who reunite in an attempt to top their epic pub crawl from 20 years earlier unwittingly become humankind's only hope for survival.

Why it matters

Gary King (Simon Pegg) and his middle-aged, suburban mates attempt to fight off a group of synthetic androids, mostly using pub furniture, sheer panic, and clumsy middle-aged momentum.
