Kung Fu Hustle

[June1]

I finally saw "Kung Fu Hustle" yesterday! I thought it was pretty good for a Stephen Chow movie, but very different from Shaolin Soccer-- much more serious and shadowy. The only thing I didn't really like was some of the dialogue between Stephen Chow and his sidekick (I didn't catch their names!)

Overall, I think it was all right, but I liked Shaolin Soccer more.

For those who have seen it, what do you think of it?

it was a pretty funny film

[HumanTyphoon]

Well, I heard it was only funny if you understood the Chinese language, because the movie uses some tones and speaking styles of some sort that you could only find funny if you understood Chinese. I thought the movie was mediocre compared to Shaolin Soccer in terms of easily translated comedy...but the choreography is better in the Kung Fu Hustle.

Just my two cents.

yeah, especially that short looking dude who stood up and ended up being like 8 feet tall

the funniest part was when he wanted to fight the kid and he was RIPPED!! Actually, the funniest part for me was when the farmer woman hits him and he loses teeth. My mom's a farmer herself, shes pretty buff.

I dig the whole chase scene. It doens't get much funnier than that for me

for some reason I loved the wimpy fat guy, the one who had awesome technique but then ran away and went "aahhh"

this movie to me is more like Napolean Dynamite than a "kung fu" movie .

I like the part where they are suppose to go kill the landlady and they keep messing up and stabbing eachother, then he knocked the snakes down & tried to whistle but they all bit him.

and the other part where the axe gang boss was so scared of the landlady after she confronted him( in the same whey Bruce Lee did in return of the draqon) and the boss was so scared he was shaking and neded up lightin himself own fire.

i think the best fight scenes where at the end when they were fighting the beast. by the way who played him? i thought he looked kinda like Bolo especially since Bolo whould be around that age now, but my mom said he was to skinny.
