This movie is very funny, i did not know that Terence Hill can be so funny without Bud Spencer. He is playing a cop who becomes a super cop through red colored radiation (dont ask me what that means) It takes time till he notices that he has super powers but his super power comes and goes without a reason. Actually he gets the reason in the middle of the movie. I am not gonna tell it, just go and watch it. Its very absurd in a funny way. You will like it and laugh no matter how absurd it becomes. The scene at the beginning where he is in the jail as he waits for his execution. he is so cool... he eats beans all the time =) i liked it. I could find 1000 jokes in this movie and write it here but you would better watch it! the music is also good...
I was very happy to find this movie for sale after years of searching. Super Fuzz was my favorite movie as a child and I got to see it lots of times since HBO played it every other day in the 1980s. It is not Oscar material or a movie worth owning in most peoples' eyes. The acting is pretty average, the story silly, and the cinematography bland. It is in my collection because of all the 1980s memories it brings back and has a pretty cool theme song.
That was Dave Speed's brilliant explanation for the loss of his superpowers.
I am ashamed to admit I spent most of the summer of 1985 watching this after I'd taped it on HBO. Those precious days will never return, but at least watching Superfuzz was better than real life for me back in 85.
All these years later, to this day, I can sing you the theme song. Now I just need to convince my wife to watch it (5-10 minutes will do).
I give it a 7 just because the pre-adolescent in me deserves a voice too.

The last time I saw Super Fuzz had to be about 15 years ago. That was probably the 50th time I had seen it. Even though it has been a while since I've seen Super Fuzz, I remember that it was a movie I was fond of and probably will always be fond of. It was about a police officer that acquired super powers by witnessing a nuclear explosion. Sure, it wasn't that original and it was a bit comic bookish, but that is not what made the movie. What made the movie is what he did with his new found super powers that he lost whenever he saw the color red. Oh this movie was hilarious. He did one silly thing after another with his powers all the while he annoyed the heck out of his partner. This was an excellent family movie that was just plain funny. The actors chosen for the main characters were a perfect fit and the story just flowed. I give Super Fuzz high marks, it is a must see.
Worth watching for the dubbing, acting, music, and possibly the most hilarious special effects you will ever see. Is it pure comedy, or is it ALL just terrible? You'll have fun deciding.
I especially liked the "underwater" scene where the sweat was beading off Ernest Borgnine's forehead as he floated to the surface with Super Fuzz on the giant bubble. Now that's comedy. Enjoy!
