A top London cop is relocated to rural Sandford where he stumbles upon all manner of misdoings. Action comedy starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, and directed by Pegg's co-writer Edgar Wright


Hot Fuzz is better than Shaun Of The Dead. Not as verbally witty as its predecessor perhaps, but Edgar Wright's action comedy is knee-deep in great sight gags, and the director's keen understanding of both forms make this a rare phenomenon: a British film that is both blisteringly funny and genuinely action-packed.

Wright's collaborator Simon Pegg is Sergeant Nicholas Angel, the Met's top cop. He's so good, in fact, that to prevent him from out-performing his fellow officers he's reassigned to Sandford, the sort of burgh that makes the Ambridge of 'The Archers' look like Los Angeles.

But if Sandford is a sleepy market town, it's home to some very real nightmares. Not that local coppers like loveable oaf Danny Butterman (Frost) see anything suspicious about Sandford's absurd number of 'accidents'. Angel is no ordinary constable and launches an investigation, much to the amusement of his bumbling boss (Broadbent) and his colleagues (Considine and Spall as a couple of mustachioed types who wouldn't look out of place in BBC retro cop show 'Life On Mars').

Amazing film!!
