the division of joy Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 From wikipedia The plot, paying homage to the cop movie genre, revolves around London policeman Nicholas Angel (Pegg), who is so good at his job he's making his colleagues look bad. He's transferred to the village of Sandford in Somerset, where he's partnered with the oafish but well-meaning Constable Danny Butterman (Frost), who dreams of being Mel Gibson. Grisly events begin to take place in the rural village, and it's up to Angel and Butterman to sort it out. From what ive seen in trailors, its to be just as funny and randomly outrageous as pegg's usual work, frost again playing the idiot role which he fills so well... It is due to hit our screens over here next feburary, as soon as ive a date for america (which i hope happens) i'll let you know... However, it is a film about english policing so i'm not so sure what the situation is there... The trailor has lots of guns... in a small rural village... What is there not to like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take Me To Your Lizard Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 And we get it before the states! A hundred times our military spending and we still watch Simon Pegg on our screens before you. Regretting that little 'War of Independence' thing now, aren't we?

the division of joy Posted February 20, 2007 Author Share Posted February 20, 2007 alright, i've seen this a few days ago.. and all i can say is, its probably the funniest thing ive seen in a long, Long time... i'd go as far as to say its better then shaun of the dead....

soldier of fortune Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 From the trailer it looks like a barrel of laughs, might catch it at the weekend. Though i didn't really like shaun of the dead, i do think this has much more potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the division of joy Posted February 20, 2007 Author Share Posted February 20, 2007 its a different kettle of fish to shaun of the dead, the humour is slightly different, but it's just awesome.... i'd reccomend it to anyone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soldier of fortune Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I'll give it a chance. After picking up Children of Men, and Beerfest on DVD last weekend, i'm banned by Nanno from Picking films for a while, i'll see if i can persuade her to go to this though. It does look funny, bit i liked in the trailer was when pegg was leaping over the fences like Beef or Salmon, then the fat bloke just smashes one of them!

Children of Men was one of the best movies I've ever seen. Touching, realistic, innovative, excellent performances....that shit should have gotten an Oscar! EDIT: Oh and Hot Fuzz was fuckin great. Not as good as SOTD but still great. I'm recommending it to the tramps on the street cos everyone else is sick of me talkin about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
