Hot Fuzz (Special Edition, 2 DVDs)

FILM REVIEW ONLY This is an absolutely hilarious comedy come action flick that seriously takes the mickey out of the seemingly never ending spate of cop action/buddy movies from the States. The director, who also wrote the script, is Edgar Wright, who also wrote and directed the incredibly funny (and also mickey taking) Shaun of the Dead back in 2004. This time he turns his quirky (some might even say weird) sense of humour to convincingly send up the spate of incredibly violent cop movies that never seem to be off our cinema and TV screens these days. That's not to say I don't like a lot of them by the way. Just that there *DOES* seem to ...  Read the complete review

What’s all the fuzz about…? After the runaway comedy success of Shaun of the Dead, which saw comedians Nick Frost (he’s the fat one more recently in the BBC2s enjoyable Hyperdrive) and Simon Pegg (alongside Frost in the cult C4 sitcom ‘Space’ fame) sending up and paying homage to the classic zombie horror genre of the grizzly seventies, the team are reapplying the same formulae to Britain’s police force here, no doubt one of many variations to come as the boys become our new Carry On team.

"Hot Fuzz" sees the return of the team behind that film, and they are keen to prove that comedy can combine action with a touch of core and still be really funny. Simon Pegg teams up with Nick Frost, and his co-writer Edgar Wright takes the ...  Read the complete review

Hot Fuzz i thought was a good comedy great movie Nick Frost i thought was the funniest with a lot of good jokes which actually made me laugh. Simon Pegg also did a great job better then other movies. My favorite scene is in Somerfield Supermarket because it was just a fun scene to watch and entertaining. It's great to see them make use of a supermarket and film a really good scene out of it The whole movie is about a London cop called Nicholas Angel who cops in London don't want him due to making the other cops look bad. Nicholas is send to a village where nothing happens or they thought. He gets send it Sandford a village Nicholas meets his ...  Read the complete review
