Review:

After watching The God of Cookery I had to re-watch Kung Fu Hustle. Such a good movie. It starts pretty much immediately, tons of great action and it’s hilarious. Really I shouldn’t have to say more.

Let’s see. Stephen Chow is amazing, perfect timing, similar story line to The God of Cookery in that he experiences a redeeming moment and then does good. Great over the top scenes that are excellently shot. Really you couldn’t ask for more.

5/5
