Hot Fuzz for me. Similar reasons, but I think it's funnier. Like they took the lessons of Shawn and refined it. I know not everyone agrees though.

I remember showing my late dad Hot Fuzz. He was laughing so hard and practically wheezing at how relatable it was, from a US law enforcement background lol. (Especially when he's fielding outrageous questions at the primary school LOL)

That was a really good time spent with my dad. I love that movie. We'd be quoting it all the time hahaha.

"Aww man did ya say anythin cool?"

"I uh, smashed him over the head with a pot and said 'playtime's over'."
