Not Awful, Just Rather Mediocre

Rating: 5/10 (5 July 2014)

The second film of the three with Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, and this time with Paddy Considine, as well as Bill Nighy and then Timothy Dalton as a main baddie is a curio - you watch it for a sheer out burst of typically British gags, very strange tempo and rather crazy plot twists. Then, you get a killer's story, much beer, beautiful village views, some very daft jokes, much bad language, many very silly allusions to Pointbreak as well as some more US detective movies. Is this a poor film? Nay, it is OK, but still, bland and overtly banal at places, often naive and often bland. Watch it, digest the too much violence moments and easily forget it as a strange but sometimes hilarious work. Brits have a weird sens of 'umor, y'know, chap.
