cricketbat Hot Fuzz is full of a lot of fun, over-the-top action movie and smart comedy, but it doesn't entertain me like Shaun of the Dead does. It drags on a little and the plot is a bit muddled. It's a clever parody of a variety of action films, though, so if you're a fan of those types of movies (which I am) then you should definitely look this one up.
thomasjay-52277 The second instalment in the 'Corentto Trilogy' of loosely connected film this release is absolutely fantastic, focusing on an extremely dedicated police officer Nicholas Angel (Simon Pegg) as he investigates a conspiracy regarding the town of sandford Edgar Wright's third feature film is brilliant! A spoof upon the cop film genre is absolutely hilarious and shows the directors style in full with the montages, character and just general Wright-ian tropes creating a brisk and hilarious film that possesses endless rewatch value
MC Paolo This is a decent comedy/action film with some funny moments, but it does feel a bit long and the jokes get old after a while. Not nearly as good as Shaun of the Dead but still worth a watch if you're a big fan of his other movies.
classicsoncall By the Power of Gray Skull! - this film was a blast! I don't go in much for slapstick, but this picture was more that that. It's a finely directed and acted send-up parody of American cop movies, and the homages are both obvious and subtle. Danny Butterman's (Nick Frost) repeated mentions of "Point Break" and "Bad Boys II" are the most blatant examples, but there was that one scene with the bear trap that was straight out of "Straw Dogs". There's both the original English version and the American remake, and either one works, but "Hot Fuzz" is a British film after all. What's kind of interesting about the story is that it was actually a pretty good murder mystery if you were to remove the comic elements, but then I would ask, why would you want to? Simon Pegg and Nick Frost aren't necessarily hilarious per se, but the situations they find themselves in produce so many clever and funny scenes that it's impossible not to bust a gut. To quote an earlier collaboration between Pegg, Frost and director Edgar Wright in "Shaun of the Dead", the trio came up with another slice of fried gold. So if you want to meet 'the cop that can't be stopped', you have to grab a copy of "Hot Fuzz" right off and treat yourself to a good time. The only thing I wish the film makers would have expanded on was the bit about the Living Statue. That had a lot of potential but came to an abrupt end with all the other victims of the Neighborhood Watch Alliance. But if that's the only spot of bother I can come up with, you have to know I had a good time with this flick. I think you will too.
