Kung Fu Hustle' ..
Tagline: A new comedy unlike anything you have seen before.
Runtime: 98m 45s - UK Rated: 15
Plot Summary:
In Shanghai, China in the 1940s, a wannabe gangster aspires to join the notorious "Axe Gang" while residents of a housing complex exhibit extraordinary powers in defending their turf.
A film by Stephen Chow starring himself amongst many others made me look back at what else he's done & there is a rather extensive library of films he's he's starred in. I note his speciality is comedy & rightly so. As described by Egbert on the poster this films is "Jackie Chan & Buster Keaton meet Quentin Tarantino & Bugs Bunny".
Overall Impressions:
Going by the tagline I think it is pretty accurate description of what they are selling to us. A lot of it seems rather surreal & partly reminds you of some classic Capcom game time well spent, but this definitely isn't a bad thing. Catch it with an open mind & you'll be pleased with the entertainment provided.
