HOT FUZZ (2007) is Hilarious and Brutal! | Movie Reaction *Wife’s First Time Watching*

[@noneofyourbeeswax01]

The brilliance of this movie is that _every single event is foreshadowed..._ but it definitely takes more than one viewing to catch everything, all the foreshadowing and the call-backs - _so many_ callbacks - it's masterfully done

[@TheDylls]

You couldn't be more correct! I think that World's End uses the same idea but as references for new jokes? Hot Fuzz just goes straight for the "obvious" callback every time. (For reference: I much prefer Hot Fuzz, but I AM biased 😅)

It's called the Cornetto Trilogy because there's a Cornetto or mention of Cornetto ice cream in each movie. Other than that, there are no narrative similarities. It's so stupid but kind of hilarious in its own right.

Olivia Coleman one of the finest actors of her generation playing the token female officer and spending the whole film making smutty jokes in the background is just brilliant. You know she had a blast doing this. Any Americans watching this should try playing spot the actor.

Part of the joke about the farmer having all those weapons is that after WWII especially in central and eastern Europe, there are tons of remnants of WWII all over farms especially near creeks that nobody goes to. There are KZbin channels of excavators right now getting permission to search farmers land and finding all kinds of guns, unexploded artillery, equipment, and human remains with insignia from shelling. In England specifically old sea mines would occasionally wash up but most common were unexploded V2 rockets. A London subway terminal had to be shut down during renovations because they found an unexploded V2 or v1 buzz bomb from many years ago that nobody knew about

The reason Juliet was wearing wings is because in the 1996 movie Romeo + Juliet, starring Leo DICaprio and Claire Danes, she wore them for a costume party. The theater group apparently were basing their production off that. Thats where the song at the end came from too. The movie was set in modern day but all the dialogue was the same as the original Shakespeare.

When they find Martin and Eve's bodies, and Skinner drives by, the song Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits is playing on the radio.

It's a village, not a town, with a pub, not a bar. (just some English differences) Great reaction guys! ❤

[@HuntingViolets]

We have villages in the U.S. too, and I believe there are towns in England. I think this is a size thing (ready to be corrected--will probably google later). Even when you fill out your taxes in the U.S., you have to select City of, Town of, or Village of.

[@wayasaunooke3424]

@HuntingViolets yes we have both. That was a village though, not a town so I was just explaining. We also have hamlets in the UK. A village is easy to spot because they are small, usually historic buildings and because it has a church and somewhere to meet so usually a hall of sorts. A town can have a whole range of places to worship or meet.

My favourite bit of trivia about this film is that Simon, Edgar and Joe had written in a love interest for Sgt Angel and she was going to be the housekeeper at the inn but they then realised that Danny was a better love interest than they could ever get out of anyone else.

The Romeo and Juliet scene, basically everything about it, is taken from the Romeo + Juliet 1996 movie with Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes, which took the play and put it into modern times with guns in California. The costumes as pretty spot on from the movie, and the song that they sang at the end of the play was in the film (maybe the end credits? I forget). The joke is that instead of performing Shakespeare at the theater in town, they performed the movie instead.

[@maximillianosaben]

I think Shaun of the Dead is the best at the genre it's tackling. Hot Fuzz is the fan favorite, and for very good reason; it's a riot! The World's End is the most mature of the three, and the one least connected to the other two, but it's also my favorite. I think of the three flavours Cornetto like the Klondike ice cream bars with vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry all in one, which I don't believe they've made for some years, so I've just confused the matter further.

[@mchmch6185]

My favourite is Hot Fuzz, and I think the first two really were better than the third in creative gut-busting comedy terms ... But, I do love The World's End, as well, and I think it had a genuine pathos with Pegg's ultimately-broken goth character that wasn't matched in the other films. A great final addition that helped display the full spectrum of Pegg & Wright's comedic writing talent. Would highly recommend all three to anybody.

[@maximillianosaben]

@@mchmch6185 - Straight up, as much as it's my favorite, I also think The World's End is the weakest if we're placing it with the trilogy.

'Love themes' for the pair were also kept in during musical edits; so much of this thing reads like a rom-com, because they're working with the original material, but also riffing off the trope of homoeroticism in buddy comedies.

Seen reactions to this often, think you’re the first to pick up on NWA, lots of famous faces and cameos .. paddy considine ( House of Dragons ) Cate Blanchett ( Lord of the Rings ) Olivia Coleman ( The queen in the Crown ) Rory McCann ( Hound in GOT ) Jim Broadbent ( Archmaester in GOT ) David Bradley ( Walder Frey in GOT ) Timothy Dalton ( James Bond ) Steve Merchant ( Ricky Gervais sidekick ) Martin Freeman ( The Hobbit ) David Threlfall ( UK Shameless ) and sure I’ve missed a few 😂

I love how they had a proper reason set out for the killings it was so detailed, but they just said it was cause they were annoying 😂

[@MikePrince101]

Love that you guys embrace the Britishness of this movie. I both grew up and live close to where this movie was set and it's so cool that they put it on the map!

[@Roseforthethorns]

Fun fact- Peter Jackson is the Santa who stabs Nicholas through the hand And Cate Blanchette is Janine

[@kirstygunn9149]

The old man monitoring the CCTV ( Edward woodward ) was the original Equalizer in the 80s and was the star of the original Wicker man, the movie about a young police man that goes to a village that is full of strange people .also last line that he says in this movie are the same he says at the end of the Wicker man.

Funfact: the Santa Clause who stabbed Nicolas hand in the opening was Peter Jackson😃

I recently worked for a church, and roof fundraising is a definite thing.

[@billybobtexas]

I love this flick, all the Shaun actors in it several were zombies etc. i just love it ughhh. So good. Big smile the whole time.

[@Xonslaught1]

Not only was that his step dad from Shaun, but also Davey Jones from the Pirates movie

[@Peejay1966]

Great movie. Love the music as Angel enters the pub for the first time. It's XTC's Sgt Rock (Is Going to Help Me). And, boy, does he help this village.

The way it was used in the play was unconventional, but “Love Fool” was originally in Baz Luhrman’s Romeo and Juliet.

The swan is funnier when you know here in the UK we have train stations/platforms closed and roads closed because of a rouge swan 😅

[@chrisspere4836]

Simon Pegg is just brilliant. I love all his acting, Star Trek, Paul, oh everything. Actually im also commenting so i can show off for my Daughter who went to Alton Towers Theme Park and within 10mins Mr Simon Pegg walks past her. She asked if he minded a photo chance and he was so great about it even though he was with his Wife and child,it made the day even better

The first time I saw this film was at a special screening with fellow Shaun of the Dead and Spaced fans. We all got a signed poster of the film and a copy of Shaun of the Dead. Such an amazing experience to watch something where we all shared the same humour. Plus my name is Janine😊

[@loxirika]

Your'e so lucky!

[@Sub2GigaChad]

You do know that window was broken from the inside don't you Janine?

[@BloodylocksBathory]

I keep forgetting Wicker Man star Edward Woodward was in this. He was the guy at the CCTVs who shoots Danny at the end. Makes it particularly funny that he accuses Nick of being a bloody busybody.

PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE DO THE REST OF THIS AMAZING TRILOGY❤❤❤❤❤

[@highlandergunn9240]

Beautiful Dog 🐶 ♥ Loved the reaction and the movie ☺ Also The old man with the long coat (Mr. Treacher) holds the distinction of firing the first ever high muzzle velocity rifle while in the British army, that's how he lost his hearing, the hearing aids he wears are real. Little bit of trivia there

[@bryanferratt6598]

Their dog is delicious 😋.

Fixing church roofs is a thing in country places, they are often very old and hard to get at.

[@tbscotty813]

Hot Fuzz is one of my all-time favorites. In 2007, I worked in England for about 6 months and almost no one had heard of it, including a PC (Police Constable) who I dated and most of her fellow officers! It just wasn't marketed over there. I ended up buying 6 or 7 copies for her and her co-workers. I thought that was unacceptable that an English police officer NOT own a copy!

[@grabtharshammer]

Weird how it wasn't marketed, yet our firm arranged a works outing to watch it at the cinema

[@bdbd1390]

My favorite part will always be when the old lady gets dropped kicked lmao

[@rolandcooke]

It's a farmer's mother of course, hence the shotgun. The two feet to the face is masterful.

[@Orion_TheyThem]

15:34 because they're parodying Baz Lurhmans adaptation: Romeo + Juliet

[@lolaarcana]

The ice creams they eat in car when they have the brainfreeze/wave conversations are Cornettos So many famous actors in it- Edward Woodward was in the Wicker Man, Timothy Dalton was James Bond, Olivia Coleman got an Oscar for the Favourite, Lurch was the Hound in GoT, Billie Whitelaw work with Samuel Becket and was in he Omen, Paul Freeman in an Indiana Jones Film Rafe Spall and Paddy Considine are pretty famous and Jim Broadbent has an Oscar. Most of the supporting cast are pretty famous. Then there are the cameos! Peter Jackson, Cate Blanchett, Bill Nighy, Martin Freeman, Steve Coogan and Edgar Wright is in there!
