Hot Fuzz is the best British comedy since Shaun of The Dead...

Rating: 9/10 (17 February 2007)

Police Constable Nicolas Angel, born and schooled in London. Graduated Canterbury University in 1993 with a double first in politics and sociology. Academically excelled in theoretical coursework and final year examinations. Received the baton of honour. Graduated with distinction into the Metropolitan Police Service. In the last twelve months, has received nine special accommodations, achieved the highest arrest record than any officer in the Mett and sustained three injuries in the line of duty, most recently in December, when wounded by a man dressed, as father Christmas. He was so good, they reassigned him.
Nicolas Angel (Simon Pegg) is teamed up with Danny Butterman (Nick Frost) in Sandford, the safest village in the country, but in a place where nothing really goes on, a whole lot is about to go down...
Hot fuzz is the best British comedy since Shaun Of the Dead, and quite possibly ever! The film manages to be hilarious continuously, and gore, violence and swearing is only ever put to comical use. There is a very clever plot, and you are never left feeling bored. The cast is incredible with loads of familiar faces, including Bill Nighy, Jim Broadbent, Steve Coogan, Martin Freeman, Stephen Merchant and of course Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright are clearly fantastic writers and manage to include brilliant references to films like Bad Boys and Point Break, as well as of course Shaun Of The Dead. It's great to keep a keen eye for the sly references. Hot Fuzz is well worth watching and you truly are, as said by Simon Pegg himself, getting your moneys worth....
