Hot Fuzz Big Cops. Small Town. Moderate Violence
Ha, ha, ha! Brilliant! The first two thirds of the film were funny enough with plenty of gags and visual amusements but the film only really kicks in for the remaining 40 minutes.
Nick Frost is a comedy genius! "By the Power of Greyskull"
The end reminds me of the beginning scenes of Desperado but instead of dirty Mexican bar, it's set in a lovely country side village.
The 15 rating, probably helped the film, they could have easily have cut on on the swearing (quite a few fs and cs) and perhaps toned down the violence but this would have taken away half the humor. The West Country accent is at it's funniest when they're swearing.

*please note, I have decided to change my rating system for reviewing films. I feel that potatoes are too broad a brush to accurately measure the merits of a film. The difference between 3 and 4 potatoes is too large and could lead to me giving misleading reviews. I thought I could get round this by introducing a decimal place but again this is only really a half measure.
I have decided to use a decimal system as this gives enough detail whilst also allowing enough sufficient differentiation between film ratings.
Retrospectively multiply the potato score by 20 to get your approximate new SC rating
e.g. 3.2/ 5 (3 potatoes and 2 chips) = 64 / 100
