All his life, an ordinary young man (Stephen Chow) has been treated like dirt. Still, he's never given up believing that all the world's problems could be solved with a little kung fu. So he's teaming up with a band of misfits-six friends who were kung fu masters in their youth-to form a soccer team that only he believes has a chance to win a $1 million grand prize. Together, they're going to apply their hidden talents to a whole new game-and soccer will never be the same.

Here are some scenes from the movie.

When the opposition tackles, do they return challenge or do they clasp hands and pray them into sliding in the mud on their behinds begging for mercy?

Anyone know why there is so much hype around 'Shaolin Soccer'?

I saw it a couple of years back and I've been watching Stephen Chow movies for a while. I saw 'Magnificent Scoundrels' and 'Sixty Million Dollar Man' at the cinema in the 90's and got hooked. I was already a HK film fan since a kid but these movies got me in to Chinese comedy flicks.

IMO Chow's best films are 'Chinese Odyssey' 1&2 (one film split in to two). Totally mad but brilliant.

If you like Stephen Chow check out Sam Hui also, 'The Private Eyes' (1976) and 'Security Unlimited' (1981) are great.
