I *JUST* watched this last night on Netflix and was calling my boyfriend.. “This movie is amazing.. I’m watching it for the second time and there’s so many nuances. It’s a lot more subtle than I thought.”
And don’t forget!
This film is one of my favourites of all time, primarily because I’m from one of those small South-West rural villages/towns that this is a brilliant mocking of. I’m proud to be one of the select few who can understand what farmer Webley is actually saying without translation.
The World’s End was my least favorite upon the initial viewing, but after a few more watchings I think you’ll find it a bit more palatable. Hot Fuzz remains my favorite, though... Dalton is fantastic, and I wish Nick Frost would play Danny Butterman in every movie ever
As someone else noted above, don’t forget:
Watching Hot Fuzz for the upteenth time and then it hit me....YARP!
This is seriously; no hyperbole, one of my favorite movies of all time. It is a love letter to all of cinema and I must watch it a few times a month. If you have the DVD I would HIGHLY suggest watching with the commentary of Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg. Not only are they charming as all hell, but they talk about all…
“You’ve got to lock me away! I’M A SLASHER! ... ... ...Of high PRICES!”
Hot Fuzz kind of take multiple viewings to pick up many of it’s nuances.
Hot Fuzz is definitely better than Shaun of the Dead.
He was perfect in this movie. Such a good villain/red herring/actually a villain and Megazord stand in.
I watch it maybe twice every year, it’s in my top 10 favorite films ever.
I have to say, Timothy Dalton in this film is one of the finest performances of any actor ever on screen.
I had the impression Heathers was written by someone who loves women. Andy Cohen seems to have contempt for them (though disguised by his endlessly cheery TV manner).
Kim reminds me of those stories you’d hear about Judy Garland being fed amphetamines when she was a kid so she could keep filming. I bet Kim has multiple doctors writing her scripts. The idea that she took “one” of Monty’s pain pills was laughable.
For one thing, I doubt Kim got any kind of education on the set, growing up. She’s inarticulate to the point of being incapable of forming sentences. I doubt she’s ever read a book. (Some of this could be brain damage from years of substance abuse too.)
If it’s obvious that Kim’s problems go beyond alcohol. If you’ve been watching from the beginning, you’ll remember her behavior from seasons 1 and 2 when it’s was obvious she was drinking. She was scatterbrained, slurred her words and could barely string together a coherent sentence. Her personality has changed…
Kim’s demons will see her off the show, just as they saw her on.
I was really struck by the scene with Kyle and Kim in Palm Springs, when Kim started singing her sad victim song about Kyle stealing her house. “You wouldn’t let me buy it! You sold it before I could even take my things out!” But then Kyle reminded her that they’d discussed their daughters co-listing the house, which…
