Overview
As a former London constable, Nicholas Angel finds it difficult to adapt to his new assignment in the sleepy British village of Sandford. Not only does he miss the excitement of the big city, but he also has a well-meaning oaf for a partner. However, when a series of grisly accidents rocks Sandford, Angel smells something rotten in the idyllic village.
A very refreshing movie. Imagine Tarantino meets Naked Gun. The film starts off as a dark comedy before moving in to a more Tarantino-esque brand of action movie. Still, it never loses sight of the comedic theme. The movie finishes a long way from where it starts.
