Who's rating this 9 or 10 stars?

Rating: 6/10 (2 January 2011)

I really wanted to see this, because I thought Hot Fuzz was one of the best done total joke of a movie that I just couldn't stop watching and loved. So maybe my expectations were to high? But, I really don't get why this movie is rated so high, or any of these comments. It's just not that great.
Don't get me wrong, it's not bad, but it's hardly "mind blowing" or "ground breaking" like so many of the reviewers keep saying. My guess is all those reviews have to be from 16 year olds who have not really seen a lot of movies.
It's cute, but some times boring because they spend time trying so hard to do something "special" and usually it's just a modern special effects take on stuff that's been done 30 years ago or more. Most of it reminded me of the old Batman TV series with the "Bang" and "Pow" with funky camera angles. Sorry teens, that's not "mind blowing" or "cutting edge" or "super trendy" or whatever great things you try to pretend it is. It's all been done, and it's only new to YOU who haven't seen it, it's not new to most people even.
The bisexual thing, or the lesbians, or the gay guy? Sorry, that's not the slightest bit shocking to anyone over 14 years old, that is a big part of far to many modern movies to name. The "Bang" action sequences are straight out of Adam West's Batman TV series, and Gamer or Crank have already updated the theme with video game style in the serious action to totally goofy cartoon directions. And the story? Wayne's World had a deeper plot... Really? "mind blowing" ? Not even close.
Overall, it's not bad, it has it's moments, it's sorta cute sometimes. But it's maybe SLIGHTLY above average, not a "Mind Blowing 10 star movie."
