Hot Funn

Hot Fuzz is the most entertaining movie I've seen in some time. It's the story of London supercop Nick Angel (Simon Pegg) who is transferred to a small country village with an easygoing police force (sorry, service) where he's partnered with a lumbering partner (Nick Frost) who is fascinated by cop action films.

It's a tough transition for Sergeant Angel as a series of bizarre "accidental" deaths convinces him something really bad is going on in this seemingly perfect little village. Angel, however, is unable to convince anyone of his suspicions.

While Hot Fuzz is an hilariously funny spoof of the typical cop action movie, the crime story is intriguing and mysterious. It is a product of many of the same people who made Shaun of the Dead.
