Review of Kung Fu Hustle (2004) by Darkzero A — 19 Aug 2013
I'm a fan of martial arts movies. The choreography and action scenes can be amazing, especially compared to today's quick cuts and indecipherable fight scenes. I watched this a few years back wanting to like it but the comedy rubbed me the wrong way.
So I stopped watching very early on and didn't come back to it till now. The comedy still bugs me, but I let it go. I was able to appreiate the riffs on the genre as a whole that I love. The fight scenes were amazing, and the story as a whole is enjoyable.
Sing wanted to be a gangster, but didn't work out. Eventually the gang goes after a town, and Sing is their only hope. Trained in the joke of Buddist Palm, he becomes a kung fu master, and is able to defeat the gang's most deadly foe.
