In Shaun of the Dead, it was the zombie movie and the anomie of modern life. In Hot Fuzz, Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg set their sights on the buddy cop blockbuster and the eccentric English village. The two worlds collide when overachieving London officer Nicholas Angel (Pegg) is promoted to sergeant. The catch is that he's being transferred to Agatha Christie country. His superiors (the comic trifecta of Martin Campbell, Steve Coogan, and Bill Nighy) explain that he's making the rest of the force look bad. On the surface, Sandford is a sleepy little burg where the most egregious crimes, like loitering, are committed by hoody-sporting schoolboys. In truth, it's a hotbed of Willow Man-style evil. Upon his arrival, Chief Butterman (Jim Broadbent) partners Angel with his daft son, Danny (Nick Frost, Pegg's Shaun co-star), who aspires to kick criminal 'arse' like the slick duo in Bad Boys II. When random citizens start turning up dead, he gets his chance. With the worshipful Danny at his side, Angel shows his cake-eating colleagues how things are done in the big city. As in Shaun, their previous picture, Wright and Pegg hit their targets more often than not. With the success of that debut comes a bigger budget for car chases, shoot-outs, and fiery explosions. Though Hot Fuzz earns its R-rating with salty language and grisly deaths, the tone is more good-natured than mean-spirited. A wall-to-wall soundtrack of boisterous British favorites, like the Kinks, T-Rex, and Sweet, contributes to the fast-paced fun. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

i have tried to play this and it wont work...can someone get back to me about this....not a happy customer!!!
Rating: - Starts out with four stars, but then. . .
I am like so many other reviewers who liked Shaun of the Dead, but was vastly underwhelmed by this. Started off OK and I laughed quite a few times in the first half. But then it just kept going.
My expectations dropped when I thought, well, it looks like we're near the end and my wife informed me there was at least another hour to go. An hour? She fell asleep (I envy her) and I still struggled on. I kept checking the satellite time. With 20 minutes left and nothing new happening (long ... Read More
Rating:  - Hot Fuzz
For people who enjoy the Englis type of humor. Was a little hard to get
into the beginning of it. But I think well worth it.
Rating: - Good movie? It's a fair cop...
Hot Fuzz After Shaun of the Dead, the writer/director/actor trio of Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost came up with this new comedy that does for cop movies what Shaun did for zombie flicks. As before Wright directs a script written by himself and Pegg, and Pegg and Frost star. Pegg plays Nick Angel, a London cop so dedicated and efficient he starts to skew the statistics away from his less motivated colleagues. He soon finds himself transferred to Sandford, a tiny little rural village on the ... Read More
Rating:  - Top Truncheon
Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are superb in this cracking little British comedy. Nick Angel (Pegg) is the London supercop who is so good he's making all his colleagues look fools, and so is shunted off to the 'sticks' and utter boredom - or so it seems. Danny (Frost) is his hapless partner and bane, short on experience but big in enthusiasm.
Angel becomes suspicious as the accident mortality rate in the village begins to rise, only to be held back by the cluelessness of his colleagues and bizarreness ... Read More
