Review of Kung Fu Hustle (2004) by Threeboxindoors — 23 Dec 2016
Beautifully directed, lots of charm, and has some really stupid but hilarious moments. Kung Fu Hustle is a very unique action comedy that even has a bit of emotion to it too. It has the perfect mix of style, action, humour and parody.
Most if not all of the acting is top-notch, however I did wish the characters had more development. The fight scenes are fantastic - amazing choreography, beautifully directed and are so entertaining, humorous and even suspenseful at times, although a lot of the CGI did bother me.
My biggest flaw with Kung Fu Hustle however would be that some of the jokes fall flat, or are ruined by CGI. There is also a scene where you suddenly realize who a certain character is, and it's a powerful moment - until it then ruins itself by using an unnecessary flashback to explain who that character is.
Apart from those few flaws I really enjoyed Kung Fu Hustle with its beautiful direction, amazing choreography and its style, its charm, the humour and the action, and i'm going to give it a 7/10. I highly recommend checking this one out.
