If you are familiar with the writings of Dave Barry, then you will be very comfortable with this movie. Dave Barry can take something that seems so common and straightforward, then slightly exaggerate and embellish, and expound until you find yourself in a fantasy and wonder how you got there.
Constable Nicholas Angel (Simon Pegg) finds himself to be too perfect; he is rejected by his girlfriend and banished to the small village of Sandford by his police force community. Here, he must adjust to rural life. But is rural life all it seems?
Nikolas is becoming suspicious of a series of accidents, and his mind is starting to say murder. Can his newfound friend/coworker, PC Danny Butterman (Nick Frost), squelch this tendency of Nicholas’ to see murder in everything? Or will we be caught up in a necklace's fantasy?
I have only seen the Blu-Ray version of this film, so I cannot compare or contrast it to other versions. You guessed it, this presentation has all the standard extra goodies, voice-overs and additions, and whatnots.

However, it is the movie we came to see; extra goodies are just icing on the cake, so when you make your choice, don't forget the cake.
