I thought it was hilarious, but it's definitely one of those comedy type films that does not appeal to all!. British comedy is not targeted for the mainstream masses, particularly with films like Shawn Of The Dead and Hot Fuzz!. They are more of an intelligent style of comedy that does not appeal to all those moronic slapstick lovers out there!. You probably didn't find it funny because the humour went over your head!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
"Shaun of the Dead" was probably one of the funniest (if not the best) British black comedy that had been released in 2004!. With gritty violence that made you squirm, innocent humour (Nick Frost) with blaspheming insults that just made you laugh out loud, and the quick wit of Simon Pegg with some great fun and horror mixed together, "Hot Fuzz" had a huge task of competing with the sheer greatness, of which was "Shaun of the Dead"!.
After much keen excitement upon seeing the teaser trailers of Hot Fuzz last year, my stomach churned as if to say "At god damn last, a film I can look forward to in the new year!" I felt as though it was best however, to go in with an open-neutral-mind, as I didn't want to spoil the film with high expectations!.
I actually was starting to get worried into the first segments of the film, the humour wasn't as sharp as SOTD's first 20 minutes, and there were so many characters to remember, most of whom didn't make sense for a while!. It wasn't till Nick Frost was introduced - that the film started picking up its pace and then decided to grab me by the throat!. The film from then, was so funny, action packed, gruesome and dark! You just do not expect anything which was what made SOTD so great!. The spontaneous actions and humour just kept the film's pace fantastically back on track!.
The great thing about Hot Fuzz was just how original it was, and the ending (no spoilers here) just gave itself the stamp of "Most Exciting & Fun Ending In British Comedy"!.
The mystery and murder factor was well done as well, leaving me guessing "who did it" all the way through the film, but as with SOTD, the dark and grotesque violence kept its mature rating of 15, very enjoyable, yet very squirming to watch!.
I highly recommend this film for anyone who just wants a good laugh and likes simple great black comedies!. If you loved Shaun of the Dead, you will love this film!. Just go in with an open-mind and have fun!. Definitely worth the ￡6!.50 (and the ￡15 when it comes out on DVD)!

I thought it was funny, just not as funny as Shawn of the Dead!. It basically used the same formula a Shawn but with a Police premise!. I still like the style of movie!. But I think it was better with Shawn of the Dead!.
