Overview

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.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A razor-sharp parody that escalates from fish-out-of-water comedy into a gleefully absurd action spectacle, where the real joy is watching the film wink at itself while delivering genuine thrills. It's a love letter to buddy cop movies disguised as a satire of sleepy English villages.
