Hot Fuzz! It's longer than Shaun of the Dead and also somehow denser! Took me extra days just to organize my thoughts on this insanely self-referential screenplay!

    Of course I'd mention that EGA The World's End is live now and then it would get age-gated after publishing. So it's private and I'm going to try to fix that and figure out what YouTube doesn't like about robot heads exploding with blue goo and probably reupload it.
  • This is the tightest, cleanest, most efficient comedy ever written. Everything connects, there is no wasted script, yet it comes off as authentic and heart warming.

    Fun Fact: When Joyce shouts Fascist at Angel, she's using an MP43, a weapon used by the Waffen SS in WW2- fascists.

    This may be the only movie I've ever seen where not one line is wasted. Every single word is either a setup, a callback or a punchline. It's really amazing.

    I love thay while Cate Blanchett is uncredited as Janine, the guy Simon accidentally speaks to first is credited as "Not Janine"

    As a British person, this is fantastic seeing an American try and go through a film so smothered in our kind of humour he actually researches some jokes! not an insult or snide remark in any sense I just love how committed he is to understanding the film and doesn't just skip over them
  • @879SCSP
    I like how, like The Glass Onion, the main character isn't dumb for not noticing the clear villains but rather, is blinded by his insane knowledge that he leads himself to believe it HAS to be more complicated than the simple, petty explanation
  • @WolfHreda
    I like to think that the living statue isn't dead. They just picked him up off the street and dumped him there, and he's so dedicated to his art that he stayed.
  • @bbmikej
    I love the fact that as Angel rides into town on the horse for the big shootout, the shotguns almost look like angel wings rising up behind him.

    As a Brit, I really appreciate how you acknowledged Anne Reid. She is so good in everything she is in and underrated by a lot of the British audience, too. Edit: I mistakenly thought that she had passed away! Sorry!
  • @GiraffeFeatures
    I just love how this quintessential British film made for British audiences has gained international fame.
  • @AldrickExGladius
    10:50 I love when Angel is telling his story about the pedal car and his uncle, and Danny's all "He sounds like a good bloke" and then Angel tells him about the uncle getting arrested for selling drugs to students and Danny IMMEDIATELY flips and says "Ah he sounds like a real twat" lmfao this movie is the best
  • @elliott2513
    I love that Janet Barker named her twins Roger (Murtaugh) and Martin (Riggs) ala Lethal Weapon. So many great little moments like this in this film make it so rewatch-able.

    Randomly stumbled onto this movie when watching tv with my mom when I was younger. We thought it was a 'normal' detective show at first, a bit like Midsummer Murders. So we were hilariously surprised when things started going bonkers. One of my favorite comedy movies of all time.
  • @DeathEatsCurry
    What I love about Danny on the nth watch is that he might not be obsessed with action movies because he's an action movie nut, but because it's his only exposure to "actual" policing (especially with his dad having gone off the moral deep end). The moment Angel comes into his life, he immediately starts absorbing lessons from him on what policing really is.
  • @Isnogood12
    I really loved the grip-strength training on the bed. Remember Angel got a knife through his palm? That's legit rehab for returning hand functionality.
  • @alfarkle
    I love that the paperwork scenes have jump cuts and are shot like an action scene, cracks me up every time.
  • @Jack-bs1bk
    This movie genuinely has one of the tightest written scripts and direction of all time.
  • @GiraffeFeatures
    20:00 Fun fact, that was an actual supermarket that the company let Hot Fuzz effectively destroy for the film.
  • @dreadom4782
    One of the Easter eggs that I find surprisingly overlooked in almost all reviews is the casting of Edward Woodward in Hot Fuzz. Woodward plays the CCTV NWA member but in so many ways Hot Fuzz is a homage to his 1973 film “The Wicker Man”. The wicker man is the story of a young police officer who is sent to a small Scottish island to solve mystery of a missing girl and uncovers that the locals are all involved in a Druidic cult.
