Mar. 19th, 2007 10:19 amSo, Katrina and I went to see Hot Fuzz on Friday, and it was very very good. Everyone, go and see it.
I picked Erica up on Saturday, because she got home from camp. She was tired and dirty and not particularly happy. She had bruises and scratches all down her legs because she felt the urge to go bushbashing in shorts. As a consequence, her legs ended up more bashed than any vegetation she came across. Also, she ended up upside-down when they were abseiling. I don't know why they make the kids hike for the best part of a week through bushland with no proper toilet, bathing or accomodation facilities and a ban on things like deoderant for their school camps.
Very funny, as expected. Some gore, but not on the scale of Shaun. And the entire movie was a game of Hey, It's That Guy! Bingo. "Hey, it's Arthur Dent!" "Hey, it's Phineas Fogg!" "Hey, it's Bill Nighy!" "Yay!" "Hey, it's that policeman off The Second Coming!" "Hey, it's Bill Bailey!" "Hey, it's Bridget Jones' dad!" "Hey! It's... um." "Which one?" "The preist." "Dunno." "Nah, he's definitely off something. Is he Christopher Plumber?" "That's never Christopher Plumber. Anyway, isn't he dead?" "Nah, he was in something recently." "Well, that's still not him." "You sure?" "Look, think of Captain Von Trapp." "Hmmm..." "See?" "Oh, no! I know who it is: the bloke off Indiana Jones." "Which one?" "The first one." "Which bloke?" "The bad guy." "Which bad guy?" "The French one." "Is it?" "Yeah. Look at his eyes." "I'll take your word for it."
The focus and stuff was messed up at the beginning, so we couldn't see the trailers properly, but we only really felt this loss when we recognised Daisy's voice doing some narration. Then they brought it back into focus right at the point where they show the title of the movie and the credits, so we missed the Daisy. Woe. I caught the tail end of an ad for the same movie on TV, and it's also got Gerard Butler in it, but I didn't recognise his voice in the theatre. Maybe he was being Scottish.
