laugh riot of this year. for me forever! :)

Rating: 9/10 (12 May 2007)

I guess i could watch this movie again and again. It's been a while since i watched a movie which helped me to laugh out loud, but god help me i was laughing almost every moment of this movie when every joke jumped out at me and how Sergeant Angel tries to adjust to his village life. The whole storyline's quite ridiculous, but frankly, that's what makes it so funny! I guess everyone should try to understand that nothing is what it seems, probably, at the end of the film, but the jokes that jump out at your face are pacey and it'll take sometime to recover from the blow.Direction by Edgar Wright is superb - for example,the fake knife wound by Danny, is prolonged. You'll see what i mean. Acting by Nick Frost and Simon Pegg is brilliant. Simon Pegg is perfect as the law abiding, dedicated officer and Nick Frost is just as fitting for his role of the bumbling and totally useless assistant to Sergeant Angel.
However,for such a comedy movie, it's pretty gory, which some viewers may not stand. There are several scenes which are pretty much bloody, and it could have qualified as a thriller as well, had there not been so much levity. But who cares? Hot Fuzz is worthy of the rating i'm giving it, and I'd recommend it to anyone who wants - basically - to have a good laugh. Humour,here,however,is pretty high level.So don't miss out on anything, or you'd be left reeling in the cinema, asking "What did he say? What did he say?" to a disgruntled companion.
Two thumbs up. Watch it. And recommend it. And own it. :)
