Heh. The title might seem like a follow-up to the previous one. Well, I dont really quite commit to my word(that I'd post more about the previous topic the next day) ;). So, this would be about a movie I saw a day ago. Its Hot Fuzz.
Best british humour for me till now I guess. Fantastic acting and writing by Simon Pegg! The movie has got every possible humour.. sarcasm, parody, practical jokes including slapstick. The movie is about a Police Constable Nicolas Angel and a Village named Sandford. The intro starts with Simon Pegg background voice and him walking seriously in the police department. "Police Constable Nicholas Angel. Born and schooled in London. Graduated Canterbury University in 1993 with a double first in politics and sociology...... excelled in police force".. blah. nice intro though.
Constable Nicolas Angel gets transferred from London by his jealous colleagues to this village because he makes other police officers look inferior(extraordinary 400% more arresting rate). This movie has got absolutely stunning screenplay, direction, camera work, special effects, background sound effects.They copied from all possible hollywood movies with such accuracy and quality. Like Requiem for a Dream, and most of the action movies like The Departed. No where it gets you bored. And you LOL once every 2 minutes. So, the constable gets promoted to Seargent + gets transferred to this village. He sees abnormal accidents happening over there and tries to investigate only to get sucked into major murders by the village heads. The village heads are pretty old chaps and they believe in doing gruesome crimes for "the greater good" of the village. Ironically, the previous topic flashed in my mind when the greater good was being explained in the movie. You know, how superstitions, beliefs, ego, honour etc. can force people into doing immoral acts...
But anyway, do check out the movie for the ultimate comedy! You might want to get hold of subtitles if you are uncomfy with british accent, cause there are subtle dialogues at some instances.The funny dialogues i remember:
(A policewoman says Hi to nicolas angel when he gets introduced to the new police station)
Danny:(standing beside nicolas) And she's our only policewoman.
Nicolas: She is not a police woman.
Danny: Yeah, she is. I've seen her bra.
Nicolas: She's a police officer. Being woman has nothing to do with it.
(Another incident, where they curiously try to figure out people walking on the road)
They see a giant retard walking down the street.
Nicolas: Okay whats his story.
Danny: Oh, that's Lurch. He's a trolley boy at the local supermarket. Real name, Micheal Armstrong. Dad says he's go a child's mind. And lives up summer street with his mum and his sister.
Nicolas: And are they as big as he is?
Danny: Who?
Nicolas: The mum and the sister.
Danny: Same person.
Nicolas: What shop were u thinking of..(changing the topic)
