Excellent British comedy
I was afraid this was going to be exactly like Shaun of the Dead (I have nothing against it, I just hate tired repeats) but I was pleasantly surprised. Hot Fuzz is an action-packed comedy, set in a British village which has it's comparisons to Stepford (calling it Sanford would hint at this too). I was surprised at how graphic it was for comedy, the effects ... read more
A superlative valentine to Hollywood action films
Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg's second feature film collaboration, 2007's Hot Fuzz furthers the pair's cinematic interests that were previously established in the superlative Shaun of the Dead. It's easy to parody a film genre, but it's another thing entirely to achieve a parody which simultaneously works as a member of the genre that it sends up. Shaun of the Dead ... read more

"Sandford, England The setting is the fictitious town of 'Sandford' – the all-purpose place name used in UK police training exercises. Which itself is England's smallest city, Wells in Somerset, at the foot of the Mendip Hills in the West of England, about four miles from Glastonbury. Why you wouldn’t want to visit: The villagers want to keep things safe, and crime free.... “For the greater good.”"
A daring and enjoyable comedy starring Simon Pegg
“I will admit to you, the film does start off slowly, and the finale is very over the top. Plus the murders are unashamedly brutal. But Hot Fuzz is a hugely enjoyable, original and daring comedy. It is fast-paced fun from start to finish. And all this is helped by a sharply observed screenplay, next to flawless comic timing and a wonderful performance from Simon Pegg playing it straight as the over zealous cop. The supporting actors do just as brilliantly with Nick Frost the standout and Jim Broadbent brilliant as always. Paddy Cosidine and Rafe Spall are hilarious as the two Andys, and Timothy Dalton is a pleasant surprise as Simon Skinner, and steals every scene he's in.The camera-work is very dark and brooding, and there are some clever homages to other movies of the genre.

"FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★★ NOTES: Like all good prints from its time, opens with the FACT anti-piracy warning. Surprisingly not as clean as the Shaun print, but hardly scratchy and all dust is small, save for one stuck strand of hair in the middle.

"A film by the comedy team of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, the same duo responsible for what is, for my money, the best zom-com ever, Shaun Of The Dead. This time, they take on the world of the buddy-cop genre.Hot Fuzz never really reaches as high a level of humor, humanity, wit as Shaun, nor is it as genre groundbreaking,but when all is said and done, there was enough of the typical high balance of comedy and chemistry between the two "Bad Boys" to make this action comedy a commendable effort.I he"
