      Greetings from Finland man!!! This movie is a part of so called "Cornetto trilogy" Shaun of the dead you've already seen and the last one is "The world's end"... Great reaction and you should definitely check out Point break the original!!! I didn't care much of the remake... "I'll be back" 😎

    The whole movie plot was given away in the first 10 minutes when he’s told he’s being reassigned to the country. He tells the Chief Inspector that he can’t just make anyone disappear and the Chief Inspector says, “Yes I can, I’m the Chief Inspector.” Then Danny’s dad, who is Chief Inspector in the little town is the leader of the group making undesirables disappear from the little village.

    Simon Pegg and Nick Frost were also in the movie *Paul,* which got mixed reviews. I love it and think it's hilarious. They're British comic book and sci-fi enthusiasts who travel to the United States to attend the annual San Diego Comic-Con.That's where it's starts, anyway. It's kind of a road trip movie. Also starring Seth Rogan, Kristen Wiig, Jason Bateman, Bill Hader, and many more recognizables.

    There's not a single ounce of fat in the movie. The editing and pacing is crisp, the dialogue and humor sparkle, the buddy cop movie homages are great, basically every single thing that happens is foreshadowing, and you'd never guess the exact twist, but the clues were in the movie the _entire_ time. Plus single thing set up gets a payoff, right down to the very end with Aaron A. Aaronson and the swan, and of course the sea mine.
    So yeah, the ending is a huge swerve , but it's also completely justified, so it's a great, fun ending. I get if for some people it wasn't their thing, but there's absolutely no arguing that this isn't a very well-made movie.

    So looking back this cast is STACKED with great British actors. Here's a list of where you might know some of the cast from besides Simon Pegg and Nick Frost:
    - Skinner is Timothy Dalton who played James Bond in two of the Bond films in the 80s. His Bond is underrated IMO.
    - Danny's dad/Chief of Police is Jim Broadbent who's in a lot of things but you'd probably know him from Harry Potter (he played Professor Slughorn)
    - Olivia Colman plays Doris and she's everywhere these days including the MCU (easily the best part of Secret Invasion). Still think her character's behavior in this is hilarious considering she's now an Oscar winner
    - One of the "Andys" is Paddy Considine who played King Viserys on House of the Dragon
    - Speaking of Westeros, the "Yarp" guy is Rory McCann who played The Hound on Game of Thrones.
    - Another Game of Thrones actor is David Bradley who played Walder Frey (and Filch from Harry Potter) and the hard to understand farmer with all the guns.
    - One of the cops at the beginning is Martin Freeman who played Bilbo in The Hobbit and Agent Ross in Black Panther.
    - Another of the cops is Bill Nighy who played Davy Jones in Pirates of the Carribean
    - Lastly the Priest is played by Paul Freeman who played Indiana Jones' rival in Raiders of the Lost Ark (while the Nazis were getting their faces melted his face was blown up by the Ark)

      Not only twice - if you have it on dvd or bluray, in the special features there should be a trivia/factoid version option…throughout the film there’s little text box pop ups with interesting points…
      Example 1 - 39:45 any explosive shown in an action movie MUST at some point in the film explode
      Example 2 - the scene where they are doing speed checks and pull the car over for speeding - is officially the SHORTEST chase in cinematic history
      Example 3 - at the start, when Nicholas holds up his badge, he has the same expression as his ID
      and there and dozens of not hundreds more.

    This trilogy is one of my favorite film trilogies (only Star Wars OT and LOTR beat it). And while I may prefer Shaun of the Dead to this, I think Hot Fuzz has a bit more rewatchability because I always pick up some new detail in rewatches (i.e., my last one I notice the only reason Nicholas *Angle* puts a toothpick in his mouth is so he can spit it out and litter in the nice clean town and piss off the Neighborhood Watch Alliance all the more). Also, the NWA might be one of the scariest group of antagonists in a comedy movie because they're perfectly willing to kill people over the smallest things that could ruin the town's image. That's honestly more horrifying than funny.

      One detail I only realised recently (even though I've been rewatching this film for years) is that the model village spire that goes through Skinner's mouth is the replica of the one he pushes onto the reporter, like a mini-revenge

    You also have to react to Romeo + Juliet to get the play’s reference.
