police on a small town's back

Rating: 10/10 (10 May 2013)

Simon Pegg and Nick Frost lampoon action flicks in this story of a London cop reassigned to a small town and having to solve a series of "accidents". The characters go so far as to describe the action clichés. Basically "Hot Fuzz" gives you a new look at everything that you've seen in cop flicks. It would be probably be best to watch this before watching any of those movies, just so that you can recognize the absurdity in those movies. We get to see the quirkiness of the small town as well as the stuffiness of the London cop. But most importantly, the movie poses the question of how any seemingly perfect place came to be perfect. But mostly it's just a fun movie. You're sure to love it.
