Hot Fuzz Review

Hot Fuzz Review

What do people actually think about countryside people? Do the police take action in the countryside? How about kids drinking in a pub? Or cruel old people acting innocent when they are up to something? The Director Edgar Wright's  who presented the movie Hot Fuzz has set converted the film by saying that there is more crime going on in the countryside than in a city and there are less police there.


The Producers of the movie have written a Cornetto Trilogy who have made the movies Shaun
 of Shaun of the Dead (2004) which has the Strawberry flavoured Cornetto which connotes that there is a lot of blood, Hot Fuzz (2007) has the blue original Cornetto which connotes the Metropolitan Police , and The World's End (2013) and this has the mint flavoured Cornetto which connotes aliens. They have used a strategy for the Trilogy by using Cornetto for certain plots in the three movies.


Simon Pegg is a Police and his character is played as Nicholas Angel, a loyal representative of the Metropolitan Police Station. His colleagues don’t appreciate his work in London so therefore his Boss Bill sends him to Sanford (small village) in the countryside. Angel is then paired up with Danny Butterman (Nick Frost) one of his colleagues. Then, mysterious things happen as soon as Nicholas comes to the country-side and the two of them start to find out what is going on...

Simon Pegg has been portrayed as a comedian in many of the films he has been such as Star Trek, Hot Fuzz, The Worlds Ends, A Fantastic Fear of Everything and many more films. He has won 4 awards for his movie called “Shaun of the Dead”.
