30 DoM: Day 25
Dec. 25th, 2010 09:48 amFirst, Merry/Happy Non-demoninational, Faith/Belief of Traditional Ceremony Day!
25. The most hilarious movie you’ve ever seen
I wonder if listing a comedian's DVD movie would count. Probably not, but still, that seems like a loophole.
Hot Fuzz is always a funny watch. For some, the British humor doesn't work, and then it turns into an action movie for the last third, but it all works together. The action part builds from earlier conversations, and is something like a videogame (which the sound effects help convey).
What kinda makes it all a tad funnier is having watched, or know of, Shaun of the Dead before watching this movie. It's by the same actor/director team, and while there are similar touches throughout the knowledge that Simon Pegg plays this smart, on the ball guy whereas in SotD he was a bit of an dolt. Nick Frost doesn't change a whole lot, going from a lazy idiot to a action-obessed idiot. But they play off each other well, and everything is topped off by having Timothy Dalton (007, once upon a time) as your villain.
It rocks, is what I'm saying.
