Nick Frost, and Martin Freeman; some of the best guys in British Comedy. This is going to be awesome.

I really enjoyed it. Edgar Wright continues the Hot Fuzz style with lots of quick cuts of mundane action, and really improved his fight sequences since Scott Pilgrim. Plenty of stuck in the 90's references(of which I can certainly relate), subtle British Humor and wordplay, pay off jokes you don't see coming just at the right time, and hilarity throughout. Last ten minutes was sort of meh, like Shaun of the Dead, like they couldn't figure out a way to just say The End. Aside from that, I really loved it, and was laughing through the whole thing. Definitely worth seeing.

On Amazon Streaming. Watched it again and stand by the original review. The first hour is just rapid fire jokes. They are so well written and embedded in the story you have to really pay attention. I haven't laughed this hard at a movie in a VERY long time. Extremely clever for the first half, second half isn't bad, but like all of Wright/Pegg/Frost movies they have to throw the plot in there somewhere and bring it to an end.

It was good. But I was a little disappointed... Wasn't really funny at all... I'm a huge pegg/frost fan and didn't get the laughs I'd thought I would. Honestly, I wanted to see if but never had the chance. Wasn't until I saw tali talking it up that I rented it on Xbox video. Entertaining, but not as good as Shaun fuzz or even Paul...
