Shoot First, Ask Questions Later
I was fully expecting "Hot Fuzz" to be much funnier and more outrageous than it was. The truly great scenes are available as film clips on the official web page.
Most everything else was kind of "eh" — though the closeups of the souped-up Honda Jazz police car (hope I pegged that right) with drilled racing pedals and aluminum shifter were pretty funny.
Meanwhile, the scene on the street was very quaint. Lots of teen and adult sons and daughters walking arm in arm with their moms, and lots of young moms and dads pushing strollers or ambling with young kids in tow or zipping ahead on the sidewalk.
It is Mother's Day after all. Hi, Mom!
