Hot Fuzz



After Shaun of the Dead there was no way I was going to miss the next parodyriffic film from Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg. Hot Fuzz lampoons buddy cop movies like Bad Boys II and Point Break, well not movies like those, but those exact movies. Danny, the sidekick, actually references how awesome these two movies in particular are over and over again. It's a hilarious jab at the all too formulaic buddy cop genre, but like Shaun of the Dead, respects the genre enough to actually pull off being a decent buddy cop action flick.

You're right! this movie was so fun! i haven't seen any of their other work but i might have to now. i saw this with Katie and Bobby and the fight scene in the 'Castle Suite' made Katie scream so much the other movie patrons were laughing at her.
