AICN’s Drew McWeeney (a.k.a., “Moriarty”) is calling Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost‘s Hot Fuzz (Focus Features, 4.20) “an instant classic” in the vein of Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale‘s Used Cars. The film has also persuaded him that Wright and Pegg “are great screenwriters [because] they’ve managed to take the things they did well in Shaun of the Dead and do them again, and I think they’ve actually fixed what they needed to fix, structural issues that sort of deflate Shaun for some of the third act.”
