Publisher's Synopsis
Double bill of comedies following intrepid - and not so intrepid - crime fighters. 'The Other Guys' (2010) is a comedy based around a group of NYPD detectives. Detectives Christopher Danson (Dwayne Johnson) and P. K. Highsmith (Samuel L. Jackson) are the coolest cops in the city, while Detectives Allen Gamble (Will Ferrell) and Terry Hoitz (Mark Wahlberg) are very much the underdogs of the police force. When Gamble and Hoitz take on what, at first, appears to be an everyday case, the two get their chance to shine. But do they have what it takes to solve the case? 'Hot Fuzz' (2007) follows superstar London cop Nicholas Angel (Simon Pegg), a man with an arrest record so impressive his colleagues and superiors conspire to shunt him out of sight to a rural posting, lest he continue to make them look bad. The sleepy hamlet he's posted to, however, turns out to be a hotbed of grisly murder and vigilantism. Angel teams up with the slightly less qualified crime fighter, PC Danny Butterman (Nick Frost), to take on the locals and restore order to the community.
