Join the Washington DC Sunday Night Film Club this Sunday, Apr 22nd at 4:45 p.m. for Hot Fuzz at the AMC Loews Georgetown 14 . Look for Brian wearing a nametag in the theatre lobby about 15 minutes before the film. As always, after the film we will descend on a local establishment for dinner/drinks/discussion.
Nicholas Angel (Simon Pegg) is the finest cop London. Hes so good, he makes everyone else look bad. As a result, Angels superiors send him to a place where his talents wont be quite so embarrassing -- the crime-free village of Sandford. He is partnered with the well-meaning but overeager police officer Danny Butterman (Nick Frost), a huge action movie fan who believes his new partner might just be a real-life ''bad boy,'' and his chance to experience the life of gunfights and car chases he longs for. Angel is quick to dismiss this as childish fantasy and Dannys puppy-like enthusiasm only adds to Angels growing frustration. However, as a series of grisly accidents rocks the village, Angel is convinced that Sandford is not what it seems and as the intrigue deepens, Dannys dreams of explosive, high-octane, car-chasing, gunfighting, all-out action seem more and more like a reality
