Run Fatboy Run is in theaters as of this week. Has anyone see it? What did you think?

I plan on seeing it this weekend so no spoilers please. I was a big fan of Shawn of the Dead and Hot Fuzz so I'm excited to see this one. Even though Simon Pegg seems to be the only actor from the other 2 movies, I've read some good reviews. :D

It's absoloutely brilliant. Simon Pegg has become one of my favourite actors and he once again does a great job in this movie.

You'll definitely enjoy it! :grin:

I missed this one when it was in cinemas here, and I've yet to buy the DVD (which I think came out here recently...)

I expect it to be awesome though; his other two creations are just damn awesome 8)


Might get it tomorrow if I see it. We're going tv shopping (I think), so there's no better way to break the new tv in!

We got a film before somewhere else did!?
It's great, though, highly recommend it.

It was a UK release back in December wasn't it?

It had it's Australian release probably a month ago.

Before that. October at the latest, probably the tail end of September.

I just finished watching it. It was a very enjoyable film and will probably pick up the DVD once it comes out in the US.

:BOT: Not as brilliant as Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, but it's a pretty entertaining movie. :CON:

Yep. You can finally hold that over us Americans.

Now maybe game companies will start actually releasing games over there...no...no, game companies hate Europe...

I watched this on DVD the other day. I thought it was quite good and I was surprised given that I'd heard bad things about it. The jokes aren't as frequent as in Shaun of the Dead or Hot Fuzz and Schwimmer does tend to spend a few minutes more than he needs to on sentiment (not just here but in all his films) but it is a funny film and worth viewing.

Every time I see this film, I just think of the character Pegg played in Hot Fuzz, and thus the film is ruined for me :(
