I’m asking because an IMDb rating cutoff above 6.5±5 seems to generally do a good job making sure I don’t regret watching something. But what am I missing among the sub-6? I know they exist, but it is hard to select among seas of…bad movies.

Yes and I will stand by that statement.
Yes, Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz are also brilliant movies. Both movies are also in Frost and Pegg’s exact wheelhouse, Britain.
Paul is another step above, because they so perfectly encapsulated the stupidity of a completely different country and culture. That’s why I like it a bit better. Name US writers/ actors that could do the same thing for Britain? I certainly cannot.
That’s fair, the UK to US tourist bewilderment is undeniably amusing. Probably resonated with me even more being a UK/US dualie lol.
But there are quotes/references from Hot Fuzz that my American and British friends still say to this day, I can’t even recall any one liner funnies from Paul but maybe I just need to give it a rewatch
