  Not as good as Shaun of the Dead but decent fun.

  Simon Skinner: Michael? Michael? Are you there? Michael? Is everything okay? Nicholas Angel: Yarp. After impressing audiences with his cult hit Shaun of the Dead, Edgar Wright reassembled [most of] the same cast and did a buddy-cop flick, entitled Hot Fuzz. If not for the brilliant chemistry between Simon Pegg and Nick Frost as two completely opposite partners is engaging and hilarious. Danny Butterman: It's not murder, it's ketchup. Edgar Wright's script is filled with memorable one-liners ("You haven't seen Bad Boys II?) and combines the genre's of action and comedy into one fun film. This film is extremely British, filmed in Britain, staring British people. Just how I like it. Danny Butterman: Supercop. Meet the cop that can't be stopped. Visually, this is a stunning film. I review Blu-rays for a living (yes, I'm serious), and the editing looks similar to the sequences in these big blockbusters, yet has the smarts of an indie film. What a skillfully lukewarm combination! For fans of British cinema, Hot Fuzz shall not be missed. Nicholas Angel: It's Frank! He's appointed himself Judge, Jury and Executioner.

  Hot Fuzz is the best comedy film of 2007. It makes good use of all it's cast members and doesn't over do it with effects and rules in favour of smart scripted comedy, it is probably the best parody film ever made. The comic brilliance of the duo Simon Pegg and Nick Frost has been proven once again! It is an extremely fresh thrill ride with great action sequences and storyline and believe it or not, it even improved itself from Shaun of the Dead!

  An ultimately fresh and upbeat film, the gore is used well and isn't OVER used, it's just simply Edgar Wright, who's work never goes unnoticed and this is no exception, everything in the film is linked there is always something to laugh at, in every scene, there's always action and always entertainment, whether your watching it for the first time, or for the hundredth time.

  What can I say, you'll be surprised to hear that I was alittle disappointed to be honest. Yeah it was funny in places but not a riot by any means, the whole idea is so good I just think they wasted the chance to REALLY top it. It starts off really well but gets less funny and too silly from the half way mark if you ask me. There's almost every top English actor in this, which kinda makes it alittle to 'cameo happy' and almost abit to full of itself, ego building hehe. The ending was just too stupid really, the whole film has a good satire and spoof humour about it but the end sequence is just way too over the top, the spoofery and larger than life action is just too much, almost like a daft comdey sketch from Monty Python or Bottom, sometimes you can spoof too hard and spoil the humour.

  Danny Butterman: Ever fired your gun in the air and yelled, 'Aaaaaaah?'  "They are going to bust your arse." The second film from the Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost team is a really funny followup to their successful Shaun of the Dead. There's a lot of little references to Shaun of the Dead that are hilarious. Although Hot Fuzz isn't quite as good as Shaun of the Dead; it's still a great comedy in it's own right. As Shaun of the Dead tackled zombie films; Hot Fuzz tackled the buddy cop movies. It's great as a spoof, yet still really funny as a stand alone movie. If you haven't seen that many of the movies Hot Fuzz is spoofing, it wouldn't really matter. It would still be funny. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost is one of the best comedy teams around. They have great chemistry onscreen together and just make for a really fun experience every time you watch them. There's a lot to like from Hot Fuzz and not a lot to hate. If you find something to dislike about this movie you are looking way too hard.  Reverend Philip Shooter: Oh, you're an agnostic, then?  Dr. Robin Hatcher: I think I've got a cream for that!

  The only time when satire/parody can truly be this disgustingly funny. And with so much style to boot, Hot Fuzz is Pegg and Frost at their best. There's just so much originality in their particular brand of humor, you'll be laughing constantly at every set piece and every scene. What's more impressive is the genre loyalty, from character archetypes to plot there's very much love for this film.

  What I love about Simon Pegg is that he LOVES films and it is evident (as in Shuan Of The Dead) again here. The film really does have something for everyone. Brilliantly written and well acted with a cast list that is filled with some of my favorite British (TV and Film) stars.… More

Brilliantly written and well acted with a cast list that is filled with some of my favorite British (TV and Film) stars. While the film starts of just the way you'd expect it to (silly, light hearted, fun)...it ends up taking a surprisingly dark turn about halfway through and even throws some fairly gruesome special effects into the mix. The image of an elderly Billie Whitelaw firing a machine gun (beehive hair bouncing with each kickback) was priceless.

  These guys sure can make a funny movie. It not only was funny, but who wouldve thought the actionwouldve been badass, I mean seriously, this action was awesome. imon pegg and Nick Frost are very charming and cool and I love dthere characters. It had smart jokes and the same formula as Shaun of the Dead, another hilarious movie. Hot Fuzz is one of the few comedies yu will see that you will feel smart paying for a buddy cop comedy film.

  An interesting story turns into something maybe a little too silly, but in the end, the ride is WELL worth it. The quick editing techniques that Edgar Wright uses are very effective, and his direction couldn't be better. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are also brilliant as the two leads. This trio is pretty amazing and meshes together beautifully. I can't wait to see what Wright does next. This movie has made me a fan.

  A cleverly crafted, smart comedy with an un-splittable comedy partnership between Pegg and Frost. Smoothly mimicking it's way through cliched Dramas and stereotypical views of the countryside, along with a borrowed touch of Action and an all star British cast, this comedy gem is a true unique touch to British comedy and is a great watch time and time again. It doesn't get better than this for Pegg and Frost.

  Completely exeeded my expectations. I never would have thought that Edgar Wright and the gang could top the wonderful "Shaun of the Dead," but somehow Hot Fuzz does with flying colors. This is literally a belly-laugh a minute type of film, and it's seemingly flawless mix of action, humour, gore, and buddy movie homages/cliches makes it not only one of the best films of the year so far, but one of the best comedies i've seen in the past few years. Highly Recommended!

  The comedy duo who made Shaun of the Dead, Pegg and Frost made this funny cop movie about a supercop in a sleepy English village. It's a cross between Midsomers Murders and Bad Boys.

  Director of Shaun Of The Dead, Edgar Wright teams up yet again with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost to create the best cop movie in recent memory. Simon Pegg plays London Cop Nicholas Angel, a cop who is too serious and too good at his job. In doing so, he makes everyone else at the London PD look bad. His superiors decide to transfer him to the quiet community of Sanford, where theres little crime. Simon Pegg plays London cop Nicholas Angel, and he's absolutely brilliant in the role. The film is hilarious, and Iconsider a comedy masterpiece. I love this film. The jokes are great, sometimes crude, but they don't overdue it, which is great. Nick Frost Plays Angel's partner Danny Butterman an action movie buff who wants to have a "bad boy" police career. Both actors light up the screen, and like in Shaun Of The Dead, they create something extremely funny on screen. The pair simply go great together, and when you get these two in a film, you get a top notch comedy. Hot Fuzz has all the elements of a buddy cop comedy, but one thing that really makes it standout among others is the good mix of action and hilarious comedy. Both comedians here are terrific, and the rest of the cast are very funny too. Edgar Wright has made a fine follow up to his zombie comedy masterpiece, Shaun Of The Dead. Hot Fuzz proves yet again that he is a great director who knows how to mix comedy with another genre very well. The film may not appeal to everyone because this is of course a British film and with that said, it's got British Humour. But to those who don't mind that, give this one a shot. The film is truly a work of originality. Even when the action starts, they still manage to do something stupid on screen and the film strongly delivers big laughs. A well constructed film with a good cast, and a good story with loads of laughter and action.

  The main character, Angel(simon pegg), the best of the best of the street cops in London, is shipped out of London because he is so good at what he does that he makes the other officers look bad, he ends up being shipped to a perfect, little sleepy town, a la Stepford...... The blood and gore is both bloody and in some cases funny,in this movie,i kid you not,lol, heads literally roll, but those heads while they resemble the characers who have been beheaded look more like manniquin heads.........

  "Come on, Sergeant, you've got to accept that it was just another nasty accident." Absolutely hilarious. Every time I see this movie, I end up enjoying it even more. It simply doesn't get old, the jokes are razor sharp, and yes, it's even better than Shaun of the Dead. Seriously, I like this movie so much that I start grinning like a kid on Christmas morning if anyone even casually mentions it. Simon Pegg stars as Nicholas Angel, a super cop from London who is transferred to the idyllic small town Sandford, because quite frankly, he's making all the other officers look bad. The town initially appears to be just as safe and peaceful as its residents insist, but ,of course, there's a sinister secret behind the friendly facade. That's really all you need to know about the plot. Just trust me, it's great. Hot Fuzz has a supremely clever script, and the jokes never fall flat. If you're familiar with movies like Point Break, Bad Boys, the various references to those movies and others will have you giddy. But Hot Fuzz is an incredibly entertaining tongue-in-cheek cop flick, even if you've never seen any of the movies it pays homage to. I've already mentioned how funny it is, and the epic and ridiculously amazing action scenes are just brilliant. Nick Frost, Bill Nighy, Timothy Dalton, Lucy Punch, and a host of other hilarious Brits join in on the fun and carnage, and the whole movie is just delightfully awesome. See it, prepare to love it, and prepare to have no doubts that Simon Pegg and director Edgar Wright are geniuses.
