Not quite as funny as Shaun of the Dead, but still very very good. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Killer soundtrack and subtle horror references (the Omen, Scream) to add to the satirisation of police film cliches.

Some of those death seqeuences were much more grim and less funny than they appeared - creating a nice dark irony.

"By the Power of Greyskull" - as unrelated as this oath was, it made me laugh right out loud with geekery goodness each time it was uttered.

So yeah, my first visit to the cinema for awhile. Had a great time.
