Hot Fuzz - English Spanish Translator Org: Translation Forum � Translators Forums

I saw a great English movie last night. I don't usually watch action/adventure films, but this one got great reviews at rottentomatoes.com so I thought I'd check it out and, to my surprise, it was by far the best movie I've seen in months - Action meets comedy!

Also, the DVD's special features are quite interesting in terms of language. Since there are several scenes in the movie that contain words such as f** or sh**, they show how they've changed them for the TV version of the movie into really interesting varieties (british English) such as Funk or Slit.

Anyway, I recommend it to everyone.

By the way the name of the movie is HOT FUZZ and I don't think it made it to the movies here in Argentina yet. Some DVD rentals have the import.

If you like this spoof genre, the same writing and producing team made "Shaun of the Dead" a couple of years ago, which spoofs zombie movies and is quite funny.
