Terrible, terrible movie!!!

Rating: 5/10 (26 August 2013)

I went by the 7.9 rating and watched the movie. (To put that in context, The Descendants was rated a 7.4!!!)
Hot Fuzz is such rubbish that it makes director David Dhawan's work look Oscar-worthy! Who watches such absolute balderdash??? And then goes to IMDb and rates it an almost 8??? Unless it's some kind of very elaborate prank!
It's not one-fifth as funny as let's say, "Death at a Funeral". It's not even as funny as "Shaun of the Dead" (if you're a fan of that genre).
It starts off as mildly funny, but then transforms, nay, descends into a totally over the top telling of a whodunit. It ends as a police action thriller. In the end, it tries to be all three but becomes neither.
Unless you enjoy movies where checking your brains in at the ticket counter is mandatory, I'd say stay away from this movie.
