Third upload is the charm!! Get it while it’s hot! 🔥🔥
Your so beautiful😎
They actually had a podcast together.
Did you recognise Doris (female police officer) from Fleabag?
@@noomiolsson462 Or her Best Supporting Actress Oscar for "The Favourite".
Fantastic reaction, glad you enjoyed it.
Hilarious that you keep referring to him as “Hodor.” His character is certainly similar. But he ACTUALLY played The Hound on GOT. 😂😂😂
The funny part is, Rory McCann’s GoT castmates had no idea he played Yarp guy in Hot Fuzz. They didn’t know until they were doing a panel at a convention and an audience member asked Rory about it during the Q&A.
Maybe it's "Houndor?" lol
Hodor auditioned for this role aswell. Rory said when he was doing his audition for this, Kristin Nairn was sitting across from him.
@@danielcody7568 Is there a video of that?
Sandor, as opposed to Hodor. :D
When you’re like “they’re such lovely people, they’re adorable” I smiled with sinister glee, knowing what was to come 😂
Timothy Dalton is one James Bond that does *NOT* get enough love.
Funny fact: The music on Skinner's radio always has something to do with the killings.
Yeah definately one of the best Bonds. Too bad he didn't get enough movies as him...
I agree - he was Daniel Craig 20 years too early
I loved him as James Bond, his character was ruthless and efficient, but always precise and with style. As for this movie, one of best ever made, love it.
My father thought he was one of the best bonds, great actor
Dalton has said that he had more fun on this one movie than in all the bond films he appeared in
That shot of Skinner standing next to his own portrait always gets me 😂
I only just realised, that could be a homage to the Lloyd Bridges shot in Airplane!....!
Also Angel's ID picture matches his expression, they had a lot of fun making this!
@@Paul_1971
If you're looking for possible obscure references, when he gets to the village and enters the hotel, she tells him "you've always been here". Could be from The Shining.
@@Paul_1971 it has to be!
Or any of the Naked Gun films (especially the second one), or Spy Hard.
"Nothing like a little girl-on-girl!"
Oscar winning actress Olivia Coleman everyone!
I love that quote.
Her: it’s Hodor
Me: No actually it’s the hound
😂😂
Probably the movie with the most rewatch potential I've ever seen, so many details in it that you can still catch after a viewing it a dozen times
Yes definitely!
You could say that about several of Edgar Wright's films, especially 'Shaun of the Dead' and 'Scott Pilgrim vs. the Word'.
Right? No scene or dialogue is wasted! The "Movies with Mikey" review of this move is fantastic, and he dives in to the points excactly.
especially if youve seen the tv series Spaced.
@@tileux There’s an early and very memorable example of Wright’s quick edit technique when Brian the artist describes what his art is about. It cracks me up just to think about it. Full episodes of Spaced are available on UA-cam if anyone is interested. I highly recommend the series if one is a fan of Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg, or Nick Frost.
This is a serious contender for my all-time favorite comedy. It has such great writing, so many little details, and cleverly plays with action movie cliches. "He's NOT Judge Judy and executioner!" is forever burned into my memory.
Our family constantly says “I’m not made of eyes” if we can’t find something.
i often mimic the way Martin Freeman says 'no'
Agreed. My top 2 are Hot Fuzz and Clue.
I keep forgetting it exists but that's a good thing too, because reading your comment, like watching this reaction, makes me re-appreciate it
Condolences
5:45 - "Aww, I love these people. They're so pleasant!"
Us - "Uh....yeah"
8:55 - If you want to see Timothy Dalton being actually serious, check him out as 007 in The Living Daylights (1987) and License to Kill (1989).
People who don’t know vs. people who know
He's pretty good in the Wild Geese also (1980's mercenary movie)
Also The Rocketteer.
@@vattmann1387 He's also good in Chuck.
One nice touch in this is that almost all the members of the Neighbourhood Watch Group are known for playing villains in older films; the priest was Beloq from Raiders of the Lost Ark, Simon Skinner was a spy in The Rocketeer, the lady who owns the hotel was terrifying in The Omen, and so on...
The head of the NWA was the cop from The Wicker Man AND the original Equaliser on TV.
@@radicaladz I love that NWA is also a super famous hip hop group! :D
@@danjquiroz *(in Sherlock Holmes voice)* That was no accident. *It was by design.* ;)
@@radicaladz And CALLAN, his greatest role.
Could you actually go on, my youth is showing, but I've never seen them, aside from raiders, and didn't know that reference in casting. literally everything is important in these films.
Nearly everything in this movie is a Chekhov's Gun. Every line, every prop, every location... It's awesome.
Que?
@@theradgegadgie6352 Chekhov's Gun is a trope of entertainment. "If you show a gun in a play, it must go off by the end." Or something like that. They tell you he's a fencer, then he has a swordfight. "Everybody and their mums is packing 'round 'ere." The first people Nicholas fights on his return is the farmer and his mum. "Wanna be a big cop in a small town? Fuck off up the model village then." Final showdown takes place in a model village. Also they make a quip about starting in the phone book with "Aaron A. Aaronson." The little kid at the end says that his name is Aaron A. Aaronson.
@@CxOrillion Aaaaahhhhhh....
@@CxOrillion Aaaaahhhhhh....
By far one of my most favourite moments is when they're attending the crime scene of the two murdered actors, when Sergeant Fisher just says "must have been going at some speed, they took the whole top off" when Martin Blower's car is a convertible.
05:45 "Ohh, I love these people, they're so pleasant. They're adorable". 😂
A couple of bits of movie trivia: This was filmed in director Edgar Wright's home town of Wells, and one of the 'best village' judges was Simon Pegg's mother!
Now I want to go there to take some pics.
Wasn't the other woman Edgar's mom?
@@musicaleuphoria8699 dont go in june lol
This is legitimately one of the most consistently hilarious comedies of the 21st century. It's absolutely packed with some of the most clever and laugh out loud moments in any comedy I've ever seen, AND it's a fantastic action flick, shot and edited to absolute perfection.
I have no idea how comedic genius comes to certain people, but Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg, and Nick Frost have it in spades.
Also thats the whole point, you can argue that Skinner got the job to make himself as suspicious as possible on purpose.
As you'll be able to tell, Timothy Dalton had a blast with that.
Nice, not Hodor, but Rory McCann, the actor who played Sandor Clegane, "the Hound".
I so love this movie, there is barely any second wasted, it has amazing re-watch potential, and it is full of comedy and action, references to other movies subtly (and not so subtly) and the cast is incredible! It is my favourite part of the Cornetto trilogy. And even though the _product placement_ is easy to miss, there is cornetto in each of the movies and its colour does not seem to be random.
"... they just always want to go to the pub." wait 'till you see, 'The worlds End'. 👍
What a classic. Being from the UK, the police here have never been seen as action-oriented or badass like US movie-cops, they're just not "cool" (they're not routinely armed either). Edgar Wright thought it was time they got their own action movie, so throwing together that juxtaposition of quaint, sheltered country-cops and the ludicrously over the top action references to big cinema was a really unique idea! It's a little tongue-in-cheek and a very quotable movie, particularly amongst employees in the police who look at it fondly in a sort of ironic, self-referential way.
One of the best scripts ever written because it manages to pull off being 4 genres at the same time: comedy, action, horror and mystery
Also, it provides you with the complete set of clues for both the fake and the real explanation for all the murders.
Nox: “aww they’re adorable!”
Me: 😬
Man, I laughed out loud when she said that…. “O’, this’ll be good!” 👍
The hooded masked gloved killer conspiracy thing is a trope from Italian horror / crime stories, usually called "Giallo" . Its like "noir" crime stories, only more lurid. So part of this movie is a Giallo homage, the other is a Michael Bay /Point Break (Katherine Bigelow) homage.
Oh I love that!
The movie basically parodies two kinds of cop movie - the English smalltown whodunnit mysteries (with small towns that, when you stop to think about it has to have a murder rate higher than Detroit) and American cop dramas/action movies. Pointing out that they're both kind of silly but we love them anyway.
Edit: I love that a) the heroes don't actually kill anyone, and b) the main villains are the freaking Home Owner's Association (well, the local equivalent of it).
Just to expand on your (b) a little
Firstly the initials of the "HOA" are NWA...not a coincidence. :D
Secondly, while Sergeant Angel's theory about why the murders are happening is totally plausible and fits all the evidence...the victims are being killed for all sorts of petty reasons....which of course is absolutely reminiscent of HOA politics. :D
(There's a lot more of course, the actors involved, the surnames of their characters, etc. Brilliant scriptwriting. :D )
It's like The Wicker Man meets every cop movie while also being a comedy. One of the greatest movies ever made.
Not to mention the original Wicker Man (Ed Woodward) is in the film.
Cute thing - the judges near the end? The man was the directors' old drama teacher. The ladies? Their mothers.
The wonderful thing about this movie is that almost every little detail, mention or joke either is a clue to the mystery or has a follow-up later in the film that acts as a thematic element, punchline, or solution to a problem. This is one of the most air-tight movies I've ever seen, and every time I watch it I catch some new detail.
Or red herring. The whole scheme to profit from real estate corruption that seems to be the stereotypical greed motive turns it to be wrong-it really makes the real motive (the villagers are willing to kill for village pride/keeping up appearances/the greater good) that much more funny.
Yes, *Point Break (original) is a great movie!*
Here’s a list of other great movies: The Lost Boys, War Dogs, Lord of the Rings, Scream 1-4 Scary Movie 1-4, Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Wolf of Wall Street, Superbad, Pineapple Express, Game Night, The Hangover, No Pain No Gain, The Fighter.
TV shows: Supernatural, The Inbetweeners (hilarious comedy about British school boy life) and Dexter (new season just released after years of the show ending).
Great film, probably my fave one. Not sure if anyone told you but Peter Jackson is the Santa that stabs Angel in the hand and Angels girlfriend is played by Kate Blanchett. I love how they tend to use a lot of the same extras in all Simon Peggs films.
Going to the pub is a very British thing... in fact the whole of the next film is all about it,! Great reaction, cheers
“What makes you think it was *murrdurr*?”
Oscar winner Olivia Colman, everybody.
You should give the TV series "Spaced" a try if you can find it. It was Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and Edgar Wright's first collab when they were all virtually unknown.
And Wright was just a baby, who absolutely hit it out of the park. Fantastic series.
Still one of the most hilarious shows I’ve ever seen
my favorite Nick Frost role. He owns this character, his comedic timing in this is perfection
This is by far the best of the trilogy.
Someone's probably already mentioned it, but the Sandford Police Service was so laid back that they set the code to their evidence locker (The same one that would later contain a small nation's arsenal) as the UK's emergency number "999"
Hot Fuzz is one of my favourite films, and worth watching more than once as you always find something you missed last time.
Another Simon Pegg & Nick Frost film worth a look at is "Paul". Pegg & Frost play a couple of UK sci-fi nerds who are in the USA for a Comi-Con, and meet Paul...... Lots of fun, with a nice twist at the end.
Of the 3 in the trilogy, this one is my favorite. I loved your reaction. Don't worry, most of us watching this movie thought the same way you did about who the killer(s) is(are). Looking forward to "The World's End". And...yes to "Point Break". You'll like it. 😊
This is the only movie I've ever seen where the sight of a guy fly-kicking an old lady in the face never fails to get a huge laugh.
So this was filmed about 5 miles from my house, in a placed called Wells in the UK. It's the smallest city in England as opposed to an actual village. Edgar Wright grew up/went to school around here and always wanted to do a cop movie in his hometown 🤣 The pub from this movie is a real pub called The Crown and they have a signed police body armour vest on the wall signed by the cast 😊
And the supermarket is the actual real deal. :)
You have such a lovely laugh, highly enjoyed watching you react to this, and would 100% support a point break watch as well! Appreciate the extra effort that went into getting this one uploaded!
"Nothing like a bit of girl on girl!" - PC Doris Thatcher
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
Fun Fact: Police Constable Doris Thatcher was so named because until recently, female officers were all referred to as "Doris" regardless of their names.
I also remember reading somewhere that it was Olivia Coleman's idea for her character's many dirty jokes (something about always playing a sweet character and wanting to be a little raunchy), but I can't seem to find it and currently can't confirm.
Olivia Coleman should have won an Oscar for this ..
@@jazzx251 - I mean, she's played multiple queens; that's basically the key to getting an Oscar.
How cool is it that most Americans now now Olivia Colman as a heavyweight dramatic actress.
Thanks for persevering with this one! My favourite of the "Three Colours Cornetto" trilogy, and a film packed to bursting with entertainment value. It's a film that rewards multiple watchings, because at the pace it goes, you're never going to catch all the callbacks and Easter Eggs first time around.
11:14 "What's in there?" - this is a sea mine, supposed to destroy a battleship. That makes it even more ridiculous how it got there 🤣
The Hound playing Hodor...lol
One of my favorite films, comedy, action thriller! 'Nothing like a bit of girl on girl'. 'Every year'. 'Everyone and their moms is packing around here'. Great lines!
That line (and several other smutty quips) from ACADEMY AWARD WINNER Olivia Coleman :D
The screenplay to this movie is utter genius.
If the Oscars took comedy seriously this should have been nominated.
When you become a movie producer and are being nominated for Oscars, do you think you'll keep these reaction videos up? I'm glad I'm watching them now. Keep these coming, Nox.
Haha yes always and forever! 😄
My favorite moment was horror going straight into comedy with Timothy Dalton getting impaled through his chin and mouth saying "Owwww. This really hurts. I'm going to need some ice cream." Dalton does such a tremendous job in this movie that I wish his time as James Bond would have lasted a little longer so he could make the role his own.
I live how it turns out everyone *is* packing, including farmers and farmer's mums!
The thing I love most about this movie is the phenomenal cast of older actors. You have legends like Edward Woodward, Stuart Wilson, Timothy Dalton and Billie Whitelaw, who was Samuel Beckett's best friend and muse.
Edgar Wright has so much reverence for these actors.
I only just started the video but "Aw, I love these people! They are adorable!" allready has me in stitches. 😂
Great reaction so far! 👍
Father Christmas is played by the director Peter Jackson, Janene is Cate Blanchett, the Judges were played by Simon Pegg's Mum and Edgar Wright's Mum and high school English teacher. its already been said bout Michael being played by the same guy who was the Hound in GoT but also the town they filmed in is Edgar Wrights home town he actually stayed at his Folks home whilst filming.
The Spiky ball is an old Sea mine. Mines like those were used in WW2 and so when something hit those sensitive sticks it would start the detonation process. Its quite a funny joke in the way that you expect it to explode but those sea mines are so old that they may not even work anymore so yea.
"Oh, I love these people! They're adorable!" Little does she know.... Lol
It's funny you called him Hodor, he's actually the actor who plays The Hound.
Someone else has probably said it already, but Skinner was played by Timothy Dalton, who also played James Bond for just two Bond films, in 1987 and 1989. He was James Bond in between Roger Moore and Pierce Brosnan.
Hot Fuzz is my favourite comedy. As for the best bit, too many to choose from, but I remember watching it when it came out here in the UK and the scene when Messenger was splattered by the roof got the loudest, longest laugh I've ever heard from an audience. The whole room was howling like lunatics.
11:23 they could only jump over the hedge because he cut it down 😂😂 the suttle jokes in this film are brilliant
Yes to Point Break, make it part of either a cop/robbers or 80's marathon.............. Also that's not Hodor, its The Hound
Funny that Olivia Coleman, Academy Award winning actress is in this film as a filthy mind cop. Also, Oscar winner Cate Blanchett made a cameo as Angel’s ex-girlfriend covered up and wearing a mask, goggles, and a protective suit for crime scene investigation in the beginning. I believe it’s called the Cornetto Trilogy because they’re different flavors with the same core characters, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.
Another incredible reaction. I’m really happy you were able to get it out of copyright because it was great
"I love these people. They're so pleasant."
Oh dear.
This was filmed not far from me in the city of Wells which is the smallest city in England.
Hot Fuzz is part of a trilogy called 'The Cornetto Triple'. The films in order are are 'Sean Of The Dead', 'Hot Fuzz' and 'The Worlds End'. All films have similar personal themes such as the leading characters Mother and the Cornetto ice cream is featured in all 3. Hope this is informative.
You mean, what she said at the start of the video?
'You can't make people disappear !'
"Yyyyyes I can, Im the Chief Inspector."
Watching all these various key scenes and you react to them, reminds of why I loved this movie from the start. I enjoyed it first time for its fast-editing and and well-written script. Second time I watched it, I enjoyed its incredible subtext and little details I didn't notice before. It is one of my favorite Edgar Wright movies with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.
_"What's in there?!"_
It's an old Sea Mine - they are dropped into the ocean and float just under the surface of the water until a ship hits it. Then those pins depress and a HUGE explosion happens.
It's a giant grenade that floats, basically. Would turn a human into something closely resembling a tomato smoothie.
Did the actor playing Michael the Busboy play a part in Game of Thrones?
Yarp. He is Rory McCann and he played 'The Hound' (not Hodor) in all eight seasons.
Another enjoyable reaction, looking forward to "The World's End" to finish off the Cornetto Trilogy :) 🍦🍦🍦
'Ah, they're so adorable' (I haven't the heart to tell her)😬
There are some serious acting talent in this movie. The "creepy guy from the supermarket" is Timothy Dalton. He played James Bond in 2 movies. The woman policewoman with all the sexist comments is Olivia Colman...winner of an Academy Award, 3 Golden Globes, 4 BAFTAs, 2 Emmys and much more.
1:51 Not many people know that the santa is a cameo by Peter Jackson, who made Lord of the rings :)
Love this film, it was filmed in Somerset were my husband's from. The scene where they need the police dog handler to translate with the farmer was saying, my husband and his friends could understand what the farmer was saying without it being translated because "if you grew up in Somerset and farming"
7:00 Well, he's actually The Hound.
10:30 Also known as Walder Frey
"I feel like there's gonna be a twist or something"
Yep. Or something.
They're still finding mines from WW2 in Europe and there's tens of thousands, like the one in the film, still in the Baltic Sea, the Mediterranean and North Sea.
Great analysis - your observations actually made me think more about how the World's End is connected to the other two films as well now with similar themes
Skinners radio plays "Romeo and Juliet" the first time he drives by, after the actors were killed - and then "Fire" the second time, after the building explodes
This movie is just made for multiple watches, to appreciate all the details!
Every damn time you refer to the members of the NWA as “adorable” I have to bite my fist to keep from cackling like a freaking idiot from the “Oh, YOU have *NO* IDEA!!!😂” feeling I get when it happens.
if you and Natalie Gold did a reaction video together, you 2 would be laughing non-stop...and it would be hilarious .
Loved the reaction. Definitely watch the third film in the trilogy "The World's End." It's still a fantastic movie and as someone getting older the themes really hit me hard. Highly recommend.
The Cornetto Trilogy is called this in part because in all three films, they feature a different flavor of Cornetto ice cream cone. In Shaun, he buys a Strawberry one, here it's Vanilla, and World's End has Pistachio
"it's like Joe Dirt" lol, i knew there was a reason i loved you
Brilliant movie, of course.
The head of the town is Edward Woodward, who played a similar role to Simon Pegg's character in the classic horror "The Wicker Man"
In that film, Edward Woodward's extremely Christian police officer tries to find a missing girl on a remote Scottish island all on his own - that has adopted some very extreme pagan rituals (like burning him alive inside a massive Wicker Man at the end!)
Just like in this movie, the main village shown in The Wicker Man doesn't appear to have anything wrong with it. But we learn that nothing is as it seems, and the whole town is in on it.
I also appreciate Timothy Dalton ("Mr Skinner") - he was Daniel Craig's James Bond 20 years too early. He deserved more than 2 movies.
... and Woodwards last words in the Wicker Man are the same as in this movie "Oh God, No"
You should watch "Paul". Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are british nerds visiting Comicon and while on a UFO tour of the southwest of the US, they encounter an alien. It's hilarious.
Lol nice! I’ll check it out 🙂
@@NoxSoSubtle Make sure you've watched Alien and Aliens first tho.... (idk if you have or not)
There’s only one Supercop, and his name is Jackie Chan.
This flick is SO good!! Once again, LOVED your reaction! I was str8 giggling early on while you were saying the townspeople were so cute and so pleasant 😂
Similar comedy-action-horror movies I recommend are 'Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang', and 'Two Hands' with Heath Ledger. So dark, so funny, so good. For Hot Fuzz I like your take on parallel universes, because the Cornetto trilogy really are unrelated, yet very related. Some people don't like 'World's End' as much as the first two; I think because it has some real heavy sadness to it. I love it to bits though, its every bit as well scripted, acted and edited as Sean of the Dead and Hot Fuzz.
I have seen dozens of reactions to this movie. Yours is definitely the best. You are so observant . Thanks
I love how over the top these movies are. And the editing fits really well
"I love these people! They're so pleasant!"
*Everyone*: ....(sharp inhale)...
Also - It's kinda funny that you referred to Michael (the trolley boy) as 'Hodor' from GOT: The actor portraying him is Rory McCann, AKA 'The Hound'.
"There are some Hippy types messing with the recycling bins" - "bring the noise"! .lol
I just couldn't help grinning when you refered to all of the people as "Aawwww, they're all so sweet."
This would come as such an awkward awakening. 😁😁
Oh, and rewatch the scenes whenever Timothy Dalton/ Skinner appears in his car. He always plays a song according to the motive / motif of the murder that has just been committed. Either the whole song, or at least the textline from the lyrics.
In the first murder, it was the line "a love-strucken Romeo" from the Dire Straights, in the second it was the iconic "Fire!" from the song "Fire" by 'The Crazy World of Arthur Brown'.
There are more such masterful details in almost every scene of this movie. There must have been decades worth of brain storms of ideas they HAVEN'T used.
The 'Hag' from the hotel was using a German Schmeisser machine pistol, or MP-40, created by the Nazis... or rather, fascists. 😁😁
The doctor with the shotgun was also the proprietor of the shooting stand at the county fair, and was shot by Danny in the same foot that was later hit when Danny threw the shotgun away.
Here's a fun fact I can't get over: for Valentine's Day 2017 (which was also the 10th anniversary of the film), Edgar Wright posted Hot Fuzz fanart of the romantical sort on his Twitter account. He's also tweeted links to Nicholas/Danny fanfictions, and joked that he and Simon Pegg once wrote one of their own... called Hot Fuzz. (insert rimshot here) I can't make this stuff up. Merry Christmas, I guess??
You have to watch Point Break, the movie is amazing!
Yep...named my son Bodhi in 2020
I’m so glad you managed to get this up!
"I love these people, they're so pleasent. Theyre adorable.." hahha. I like that everybody think that.. Even me the first time
Timothy Dalton is such a scene stealer in this, yarp.
32:27 "I kind of like it here. Besides, we'd have to do a _considerable_ amount of paperwork."
There we are. Paperwork, an inextricable part of police work. As it should be.
Hi, dear. I just discovered your UA-cam page. I’m impressed with your reactions and ability to foresee elements in the story and where they’re going to go before they play out. On this film, Hot Fuzz (and someone else may already have pointed this out): this film does in fact qualify as part of a trilogy along with the other two films Shaun of the Dead and The World’s End. The literary and technical definition of a trilogy does not mean continuing characters and storyline.
As opposed to the Lord of the rings or Star Wars, which J.R.R. Tolkien made it clear that LOTR isn’t a trilogy. The thematic connection Hot Fuzz shares with the other two films are Blood and Cornetto ice cream. Which is only made clear in the last film in the very last few minutes. That said, your UA-cam channel is extremely enjoyable!
