What happens

Hot Fuzz is a 2007 British action comedy film directed by Edgar Wright and written by Wright and Simon Pegg. Pegg stars as Nicholas Angel, an elite police officer who is reassigned to a West Country village and investigates a series of gruesome deaths. Nick Frost co-stars as Police Constable Danny Butterman, Angel's partner. Hot Fuzz is the second and most commercially successful film in the Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy, following Shaun of the Dead and followed by The World's End. Over 100 action films were used as inspiration for the script. Principal photography took place in Wells, Somerset, for eleven weeks and ten artists worked on VFX, which involved explosions, gory gunfire scenes and a flip book. Hot Fuzz premiered on 13 February 2007 in the United Kingdom. It received acclaim and grossed US$80 million worldwide on a budget of $12–16 million. In 2020, Empire named it the 67th-greatest film of the 21st century. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
