This movie is so fucking beautiful, I almost cried.
I've browsed some papers, and reviews and interviews on the net, and I really don't have anything constructive to contribute to this conversation. Hot Fuzz is a better satire of dated pop cultural references than has come out of Hollywood in, well, remind me when the last good one was? Hot Fuzz is a better guns akimbo action movie than any made in Hollywood or Hong Kong since...any suggestions? Hot Fuzz takes all the things you love to hate about over-edited, rote Hollywood blockbusters and cop thrillers and reminds you that you never want to get too old for this shit.
That's all been said. All I can add is that I haven't been this close to tears in a theater since I first saw the Shire up on screen. A part of me I thought dead was brought back to life, screaming, "Die Hard 4 has a guy jumping out of a car as it flies up into a helicopter with a guy jumping out of it! Yippie-ki-yay, motherfucker! Opening night!"
