 Hot Fuzz is a hot mess! August 29, 2008
2 out of 16 found this review helpful
I saw the previews for this movie and actually laughed my you know what off. I expected it to be a funny action movie like National Security or The Rush Hour series. But I was way off. It starts off good with Nick Angel (Simon Pegg) being super cop. But then the murder mysteries make the movie seem longer than it should be and the gun fight made the movie seem longer also. I don't want to give away what happens after the gunfight but let's just say it seemed like it prolonged the movie even more. And they wasted the talent of Timothy Dalton here. The plot is uneven, contrived, and complete nonsense. Pass on this and check out Formula 51 or Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels. Those movies are entertaining and each have a cohesive plot. But not this movie. This movie is so bad that it's more entertaining to watch it rain outside!

Like a little Hot Fuzz with your extras? This edition is loaded with them. So much Pegg, Frost and Wright that you may overdose and be sent to comedy rehab where they won't let you flush cake or shop at Sheppler's. My favorite gem in this lot is Edgar Wright's first cop film, Dead Right. Made in 1993 on VHS, its Dirty Harry meets Lethal Weapon meets Rushmore which all builds to a fantastic climax of box monsters and a misunderstood cereal killer (yes, cereal killer). I'm so glad I pried open my wallet and shelled out the 30 bucks. If, after consuming all this media you still can't get enough, try the excellent British TV series Spaced where P, F, and W first rattled their light sabers to create comedy history.
Hot Fuzz is HOT! August 18, 2008
I saw the trailers and thought that this would be a fun movie to see in the theater. What I was when we got there was way beyond my expectations.
I hadn't seen Shawn of the Dead (although I had heard of it) nor do I recall seeing any Simon Pegg movie before. What I came away with was a new favorite set of actors and film makers. These guys were just laugh-out-loud funny. Simon Pegg and his ultra serious, extremely dedicated character made me want to see much, much more of his work. Edgar Wright made me believe he was just a simple little small-town cop.
Definitely a must-see.
SHAUN OF THE DEAD August 13, 2008
The film is littered with in jokes and cultural references. There are also a number of references to SHAUN OF THE DEAD, but it isn't important to get any of these to enjoy the movie.
 Over hyped August 2, 2008

With all the hype for this movie I was expecting more. Half the time I could not understand the British accents, and the movie itself was just OK.
