This was an interesting one. It takes a long time to build up, but when it gets there, it's pretty damn hilarious.

THINGS THIS MOVIE CONTAINED: A stuffed monkey, a man impaled through the throat, a badass Swan.

THINGS THIS MOVIE DID NOT CONTAIN:  Bob Dole, Sega Genesis commercials, Bear Fights Uncensored. Untrue Fact: The original cast was made up of all Kiwi's, but they backed out when they were asked to do an inter-foodsies love scene with a big, lazy Cantalope.

The Review: Well I liked this movie, but it does go pretty slow for the first hour or so, so you've been warned. A policeman in England is so damn good that he's embarassing everyone else, so he's sent to work in the country where there's no crime. People start turning up dead (good!) and the plot, as they say, thickens. This movie is an action comedy, and while at first it's mostly comedy, the action does kick in toward the end. The comedy is entertaining but not over the top, and the characters are fun. Like the previous film these guys made, Shaun of the Dead, the movie is all about making fun of the cliches surrounding the genre. Think of it as an action movie that doesn't take itself seriously. Watch out for the breakout star of this film, the runaway Swan. Check it out if you're a fan of Shaun of the Dead, action movies (but have a little patience), or comedic satires.

Complaints:  I really connected with the Swan character. I wish the Swan had more screentime, his own gun, and a cigar sticking out of his beak.

On a side note: The Ninja Master is so good that the League of Shadows recently tried to revoke his license to assassinate. Needless to say, they now swim with the fishies.
