If you like Shawn of the Dead, buddy films, British comedies, gun battles, police procedurals, OR meta-cinema, you should run, not walk, to find Hot Fuzz before it leaves the big screen entirely.

That was some funny, funny shite. A little over two hours, but jam-packed with in-jokes, action, snappy banter, and over-the-top satire. Top notch cinema.

::edit Also mysteries, Neighborhood Watch, Godzilla, man love, unlikely weaponry, or slasher flicks.

I think I just watched my life as British cinema

So, what is the Neighborhood Watch in Kansas City really up to?

And if you like both films it's well worth tracking down episodes of Spaced.
