The top cop in London is too good at his job, so he is sent to a quiet country village where crime is nonexistant, however, not all is as it seems.

Even better than Shaun of the Dead and funnier. I enjoyed the action parody moments, during the last 30 min., a lot. Very smart and funny. |

You either like Hot Fuzz or Shaun of the Dead better. I am more of a Shaun person. However, this was an ok film. |

You Should See this for 'The Greater Good' |
|
Probably Simon Pegg and Nick Frosts best film. Filled with Action and moments that will make you bust out laughing. The Plot is also very good and original.
This is a definite must see/own whatever your favourite film genre is.
Best Comedy I have ever seen. |

Hot Fuzz |
|
A must-have movie. I'm not obsessed with cop films at all but I enjoyed this spoof nonetheless. I did catch a few film references here and there but not as much as I did in "Shaun of the Dead." It's as funny as their preceeding zombie flick but maybe a bit more ambitious. After an hour and fifteen minutes, it started delving into the mystery genre, which I thoroughly enjoyed. It's as if they've turned a bunch of really bad films into a great film by means of spicing them up with a plethora of daring originality. I love how they introduce jokes that most will perceive as a one-time thing, but as it turns out, they come back later on with more powerful punches. I wish Simon Pegg would create more astute spoofs like "Hot Fuzz" and "Shaun of the Dead." How about spoofing spy films next time? ... |

I think you would have made a great Muppet... |

This was a movie that skipped out of work early to ensure that I wouldn't miss it on opening night. Needless to say I was far from disappointed, this move is absolutely hilarious. Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, and Bill Nighy have become that newest force to contend with in the comedy spoof category of films. This being the take on the "Buddy Cop" genre of action movies, is well scripted and the physical comedy is simply amazing.
Pegg and Frost's on screen relationship is so well developed, and they make it all seem so effortless, that I wonder how much acting they really do? They obviously were having a blast, which lends itself to the film. Everything was perfect. I wouldn't change a thing. I mean I was actually laughing part of the time at nothing more than the timing of scene ... |
