Hot Fuzz is a Buddy Cop Love Story (2x11)

Udgivelsesdato: Mar 31, 2024

Hot Fuzz, the second chapter in Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg’s ‘Three Flavors Cornetto Trilogy’, takes the piss out of buddy cop movies in the most loving way possible. The story of a cop who's too good for his own good, transferring to a small town in the country and uncovering a gruesomely violent plot, lampoons its action influences while being a pristine example of the genre in its own right. Clint, Cal, and Alex talk about editing paperwork like a fight scene, the comedy chops of Olivia Colman, and audio commentary tracks with film references too numerous to keep up with.
