Who Da Hustler?

Presenting...... Comic genius Mr Stephen Chow!



Watched Kung Fu Hustle yesterday. It was wonderfully funny. Thank god that Stephen Chow departed from his usual slapstick comedy. He really has arrived as the comic genius of Hong Kong, so much so that this film was heavily invested by western interest.

Since the surprise departure from his usual slapstick in his last movie, Shaolin Soccer, the world has indeed been waiting with some fervour for his new film. Stephen Chow has finally realised that you do not need to be acting funny every second to be noted. All you need are some artsy scenes, some tragic moments and the funny clips will be greater contrasted and better appreciated. I don't think i can heap any more praise to such a great film. But i must warn you that there are some rather graphic scenes in their till death do we fight attitude.

Visit Kung Fu Hustle at Sony Pictures for 4 inexplicably fun games. There's one fighting game ala Street Fighter where you go against the mooning barber, the fairy tailor and even the head of the Axe Gang. Another is kinda like King Kong as you jump over rats and dodge the Landladys flying flower pots as you try to finish chores. The third is really interesting where you fling axes and try to kill all the crazy axe gang members. The last is a puzzle bobble look alike as you try to placid adorable kids running towards you with different choices of ice cream. Enjoy!
