"Hot Fuzz", Chinese translation of "Hot Blood Detective". From the name, it should be a confrontation between the police and the bandits, but it is actually a confrontation between the police and the people. In other words, it was a police-community party at first, and finally turned into a police-community showdown. Nicholas was originally a big city policeman, but was sent to the small town of Sanford because he was too good. Nicholas thought that when he arrived at Sanford, it was basically equivalent to retirement. He didn't expect that there were still many things in this town. Of course, what surprised Nicholas the most was that the seemingly peaceful and peaceful Sanford turned out to be a murderous castle of terror. Nicholas may have never encountered such a big case in London, which is too tempting for an aspiring policeman. At first, Nikolai locked the murderer on a specific person. As the investigation progresses, he discovers that he is dealing with a secret organization - the Watchers - whose members include all of Sanford's most respected individuals. The "Watchmen" watch over what they believe to be the traditions of the town, and anyone who dares to challenge it will be purged - Nicholas is listed as their target. Okay, spoiler here.

Compared with the comedy tone presented by the film, it is obviously inappropriate to label Nicholas's actions as upholding justice, and he will be scolded. And it is equally anachronistic to see the "watchmen" as the last force to defend tradition, and will suffer a brick. In such a movie with many jokes and constant spoofs, any slightly deeper analysis will make the critics suspect of pretending to be B. Therefore, we can only see the brave side of Nicholas, and cannot take into account the significance behind it to maintain the dignity of the law, uphold social justice, and fight against underworld forces; we can only see Nicholas' partner Danny being cautious, innocent, cute, confused and clumsy On the other hand, we cannot regard him as a rebel who has a clear view of good and evil, takes into account the overall situation, and reforms his past; we can only see the stubborn and conservative side of the “watchmen” with firm beliefs, and we cannot consider them to be the incarnation of a certain interest group. . In fact, too many spoof scenes in the film also seem to show that the producers did not want to burden the film with heavy social significance. What do you think it is, it is what it is. Literature and art must get rid of ideology and serve the public. In this regard, foreigners have always been better than us.

A small discovery: several shooting scenes in the movie have obvious John Woo style, and they raised their hands in agreement.

    Fantastic shots, sharp editing; witty stories, unexpected endings; coupled with the re-cooperation of director Edgar Wright and the "zombie group" (Simon Peggy + Nick Frost), it is doomed "The Hot Blood Detective" will be a comedy movie that won my favor! - The handsome Nicholas, the stupid Danny, a group of unexpected behind-the-scenes, staged a humorous climax battle scene. → I have watched it two or three times.

    It deserves to be produced by the British country of corruption. It is a superb foreshadowing. At first it was a comedy film, then it became a horror film. Later it turned into a shootout film, and finally it was a comedy film. Such a good-looking movie for Mao so few people ==, online: http://www.bilibili.tv/video/av325220/index_1.html
