kung fu hustle

i saw this in a sneak preview and i loved it. I 'm a big
stephen chow fan, my favorite picture being "forbidden city
cop." this movie is right up there in quality, surpassing
"shaolin soccer" easily in comedy and kung fu. It's like a
cross between the videogame street fighter 2, the matrix,
and loony toons cartoons. the kung fu is funny and violent
and acrobatic. yeah it's pretty dope. see it fools!

i think they should have called it something different than
"kung fu hustle" what a dumb title. but it's good though.
if you like stephen chow films, it's right up your alley!

i really liked shaolin soccer, but the tv ad looked kinda
retarded. :/

it looked more like a cartoon with all that cgi. is that
really what it's like?

it is very cartoon like. but it is a comedy so it works.
like a roadrunner and coyote cartoon where it is brutally
violent but in a comical way.

like most kung-fu movies, the fighting style defines each
character. but in kung fu hustle, the styles often more
like super powers than fighting styles. sort of like
watching a chinese Justice League cartoon or something.

well anyway, i liked it a lot. i think it is almost as good
if not better than 'Forbidden City Cop' which is my favorite
Chow movie!
