…go see “Hot Fuzz,” the newest film from the creators of “Shawn of the Dead.”
An absolutely brilliant send-up of police action films, it tells the tale of Nick Angel (Simon Pegg of “Shawn”) who’s a hyperefficient London supercop reassigned to the British countryside because he’s making everyone else on the force look bad in comparison. In the sleepy town of Sanford where there hasn’t been a violent crime in twenty years, it’s figured that Angel will be nicely tucked away. But when the bodies start piling up in a series of increasingly unlikely “accidents,” Angel is drawn into an involved conspiracy in a town where (in classic tradition) nothing is as it seems.
Much better film than SM3, honestly. Rated “R” for some explicit gore and profanity (mostly by people witnessing the gore.)
