Preview: Hot Fuzz

I’ll
admit it; I’m a huge fan of SHAUN OF THE DEAD.
It was one of those films that I can watch several times and
still not get sick of. It was
satisfying on all accounts, whether you are into horror or comedy;
it even had a little human drama thrown in.
And it made me a fan of everyone involved.
So when JoBlo.com was invited to check out an advanced
screening of Edgar Wright’s new flick HOT
FUZZ
, it was my honor to see it.

Many
times a great film will come out and get all sorts of good press and
drive audiences crazy and then the next picture from that same
director will just suck. Well,
I’m happy to report that HOT FUZZ did not suck, in fact, it
excelled in everything. You
want action… check. You want
funny… check. You want
horror… check. Hell, you
want gore…you guessed it… check. This
is one of those rare flicks that kicks arse on every level; it makes
going to the movies fun and it’s a bloody good time.

Edgar
Wright loves movies and he successfully plays on that as well as
anyone possibly could. What
SHAUN OF THE DEAD did for zombie flicks, the Fuzz does for action in
a big way. But the most
exciting thing about it is how surprising it is.
So to tell you much more than it’s a cop flick gives too
much away. And of course Simon
Pegg and Nick Frost, back from the dead, are in top form along with
the rest of the incredible cast.

Thank
you Edgar Wright for loving movies and for making them fun again.
When HOT FUZZ opens in the

US


on April 13th, go see it opening weekend; and then go see
it again… many times. I know
I will.
