The introduction of the film Hot Fuzz is very interesting as they are able to introduce Simon Pegg's character with in a minute. This is very good as it helps the audience realise what sort of character they are going to be viewing. It is a very interesting ellipses that they have used as it shows that he is multi skilled and is important to the metropolitan police service.
It is very clever that they have used a flashback when the voice over speaks about him being stabbed in the hand by a man dressed as Santa Claus. This piece of information is then spoken about throughout the film.
The disequilibrium is then showed to the audience within 2 minutes when the officers higher up than he is decide that he is going to be moved to the countryside.
A comedy aspect is then put in place when the officers that he speaks to all start the conversation with the same line, 'Hello Nicholas, how's the hand?', this gives the idea to the audience what sort of film that they are going to watch.
