I notice that there is no thread for this movie, but in Krazy501's latest post he referenced it. has anyone else seen this wonderfully hilarious kungfu "spoof"? to qoute my freind matt " too much awesome"
I just watched it tonight. I thought it was good - started a little slow but had a good build up and by the end I was thoroughly engrossed. I personally liked Shaolin Soccer better but Kung Fu Hustle was definitely worth the price of admission - I paid matinee but wouldn't have felt gipped if I'd paid the non-matinee price. Mike
Kung Fu Hustle was a great movie! i saw it back in March i think. my friend bought a dvd from hongkong. the dancing part in the beginning i thought was retarded, but overall a great movie! -nico-
I loved it. All my Kung fu brothers and I went to the movie theater in our uniforms and watched it (that was a blast ). I work at the theater so I got in free but I wouldn't have felt stiffed to pay either.
That was hilerious! i was in tears for half of the movie! HAHAHAHAA yeah the knives! And the hair on fire! and omg omg the flower pot! so many!
I saw it Saturday Night, I thought it was great. the action was amazing and sing and his chubby pal were hilarious, I was dying when they were trying to throw the knives at the landlady. great movie!!!
I can't believe that I havent posted anything on this movie yet. This movie is one the funniest ones around and apparently even funnier if you're Chinese as there is a lot of hidden messages (especially on the advertising posters in the background). Hilarious, smart, well-shot, good story. Loving it
This Movie is just coming out in Cinema's around the UK now. I've had it on DVD since the start of may (my birthday ) from the better half. Is a class movie, think I prefer Shaolin soccer, but if you like a humorous OTT kungfu flick then it's worth watching.
I thought Kung Fu Hustle was excellent - So much better than Shaolin Soccer. I saw it whlile I was in Hong Kong around Xmas but looking forward to seeing again in the uk No beff paying to see this one again (specially seeing as the knock off DVD i bought while I was out there was naff!). Loved the blind musicians!
The movie was pretty good, but stephen chow did better [edit] in shaolin soccer [/edit] IMO Just wait till you watch a few bollywood [indian, hindi] movies!!!!!!!!!! |Cain|
Yeah, Stephen Chow is good stuff. There is already a sequel being written, and in Hong Kong they are producing a tv series spin off called Kung Fu: Champion. Chances of getting it here (I'm in Aus) seem slim at this stage. They haven't even released it here yet - it was slated for April I think, and since then it's been bumped and bumped and bumped - August 17th I think is the current date for release. However, I think the bumping was basically because it has done so well around the world and now the distributor is putting some money into marketting - originally it was to be released in indie cinemas only, but I'm pretty sure all the nation wide chains are going to run it now. So I guess that's good.
