Hot Fuzz (2007)



9/10
(HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!)

Action packed, just the right amount of gore, suspenseful, thrilling and humorous!

Hot Fuzz plot: jealous colleagues conspire to get a top London cop transferred to a small town and paired with a witless new partner. On the beat, the pair stumble upon a series of suspicious accidents and events. (imdb)

I have seen this movie multiple times and loved it with each and every viewing. Hot Fuzz incorporates the brilliant British humor, great performance of Simon Pegg and parodies American action films (Point Break and Bad Boys) perfectly.

Edger Writer and Simon Pegg are the perfect duo in creating Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz (though I love Hot Fuzz way more!). Edger Wright with Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and Scott Pilgrim vs the World has succeeded in getting my attention. I look forward to whatever else he has in store.

Hot Fuzz has succeeded in balancing out elements of many genres perfectly and has wrapped all of them perfectly around an intriguing storyline about a mystery in a small town. Hot Fuzz does not out do itself in any genres...almost like the little bear from the Three Bears....it was just right.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to those who love a bit of gore/action/suspense/British humor that is tightly knit around an great storyline and supported by fantastic acting.
