More fun is rare to find.

Rating: 9/10 (8 January 2008)

In the tradition of Shaun of the Dead, the trio (Wright, Pegg, Frost) create a film that is much more of an homage than a comedy. And what a brilliant homage it is. The first half mainly consists of the dry, witty humor that played throughout most of Shaun of the Dead. Personally, I was a huge fan of this. Coming from a British background, I really adored all of the dry British humor that was used and the clever spoofing of some of the action genres biggest moments/situations was also quite hilarious. Unlike the Scary Movies of the modern world, Fuzz knows how to do a parody. It doesn't go insanely over the top and gimmicky, barely linking the story together with scrapes of former film plots. Instead it bases the entire film around one plot, and cleverly pokes fun of other films in scenes or perfectly disposed one liners. The second half is just a complete explosion of action and frenzy. The homage is perfected with some of the best and most engaging action I've ever seen, as well as being filtered with some great humor (Timothy Dalton with a spike through his chin moaning 'Owie'? I'm in.) that makes the experience all the more enjoyable. The trio once again creates one of the most hilariously entertaining films I've had the pleasure of seeing, and I'm sure I'll be able to watch it a thousand times without getting the slightest bit bored. On a side note, the cameos from Cate Blanchett, Martin Freeman, Bill Nighy and Peter Jackson are absolutely wonderful and hilarious.
