3 StarsFrom The Makers Of Shaun Of The Dead
Nicholas Angel (Simon Pegg) is the finest cop London has to offer, with an arrest record 400% higher than any other officer on the force. He's so good, he makes everyone else look bad. As a result, Angel's superiors send him to a place where his talents won't be quite so embarrassing -- the sleepy and seemingly crime-free village of Sandford.
Hilarious! I don't like to set expectations on a film, but this one was what I expected. Simon Pegg & Nick Frost team back up now as cops wanting to make a difference in a small town outside of London. I agree with a co-worker of mine in that the best part is definately towards the end.
Timothy Dalton was also pretty entertaining in this film. If you don't remember him, he was James Bond between Roger Moore and Pierce Brosnan. He unfortunately only did 2 Bond films, The Living Daylights & Licence To Kill. Other than that he was a pretty broad actor with no limits starring in films like Jane Eyre, Lion In Winter, Flash Gordon, Beautician and The Beast, Rocketeer, Hildalgo & even Looney Tunes: Back In Action. Like I said no limits.
Other actors include Jim Broadbent (Moulin Rouge, Art School Confidential & Narnia) & Edward Woodward (Uncle Tom's Cabin, A Christmas Carol & The Wicker Man ('74)).
I do highly recommend seeing this film especially if you even just liked Shaun Of The Dead. Owner.
