Movies with Brits

In the last 24 hours I have watched, 'The Hobbit:  An Unexpected Journey' and 'The World's End'.  I had high expectations for both movies, especially hoping for a handful of chuckles at the Pegg/Frost movie ('The World's End'), but both movies were mediocre at best.  I rated both a 3 out of 5 on Netflix and saved myself from wasting a mailed DVD rental on them.  Thank you,Skinemax  Cinemax.
