Alternative Title s : Kung Pow. Show Spoilers. How well does it match the trope? Lets be serious. It is a spoof. It is dubbed. Some people will absolutely hate this movie. Much the same as a lot of my friends hated Airplain, Fletch, and History of the World.
But lets be honest, it makes you laugh. Honestly, I thought I Lets be serious. Honestly, I thought I might have to be drunk to enjoy this movie. Bad Idea. I forgot half the stuff, and had to watch it sober. I still laughed like hell.
It is soooooo very simple. But I like that kind of humor. How simple could a line be. I have found a movie like this sometimes will get a bad review, because people or critics will look into the plot too much, or complain about the lack of a story. Please people give it a rest.
The movie was made to make us laugh, and it very simply does that. I hope they really do make a sequal to it. The hint at a sequal at the end of the movie. The did that with Spaceballs too. Oh yeah a nother movie which I am sure got bad reviews, but made me laugh.
Enjoy this movie, don't watch it with your girlfriend though. Aug 17, Never expected to see such a low score for this movie. I never saw it in theaters, a friend brought it over a couple years ago. I bought my own copy the very next day. This movie is destined to be a classic, though it obviously does not Wow. This movie is destined to be a classic, though it obviously does not bridge generational gaps very well.
A follow up would be very much appreciated. The only thing that kept me from giving this movie a 10 was the heavily-touted cow fight scene, which is very out of place and falls flat. Outside of that minute bit, this film leaves you in stiches. If you enjoy this kinda stuff, I guarantee you'll watch it more than once. KenjiC May 18, One of the funniest parody movies ever imagined.
Although there is little to no plot, that flaw hardly matters, because you shouldn't go to a comedy movie for the plot. But all in all, you either love this movie or you hate it. AdamS Sep 10, I never get tired of watching this movie.
I also never get tired of people who just don't get it. I have a pretty warped sense of humour, and even that isn't enough sometimes to get enjoyment out of this film for some people, but I I never get tired of watching this movie. I have a pretty warped sense of humour, and even that isn't enough sometimes to get enjoyment out of this film for some people, but I most certainly do. The ending is absolutely stupid, but that goes without saying in an entirely stupid movie.
But that is its charm. Please Steve, I want a sequel that's just as stupid and funny and rediculously mental as soon as possible. TylerL Mar 29, Very entertaining and silly.
It wasn't made to make sense, thats why critics don't like it. It was entertaining nonetheless. Jul 16, One of the funniest films I have ever seen. It helps if you have some familiarity with Hong Kong martial arts films. You will either love it or hate it, and I loved it. Nov 15, Easily one of the best redone movies ever.
Great comedy that is just dumb enough to be a great success. To an uptight film critic who's job in life is to stare at the screen and judge, this movie may be difficult to understand. To any Easily one of the best redone movies ever. To any normal person, don't think too much and you wouln't be able to stop laughing. Mar 11, It is a very, very sophomoric effort. There isn't any doubting this. But, Kung Pow beats the crap out of Scary Movie any day simply because it's laughable It's funny as hell.
If you get this on DVD, watch it It is a very, very sophomoric effort. If you get this on DVD, watch it twice in a night. Once to see the final film, and the next to see the incredibly retarded original audio track. Freakin' priceless. This is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen in my life.
I feel so sorry for the sacks of losers who review this and cant find humor here. This is not a serious movie. No one is trying to win an oscar here.
It is what its This is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen in my life. It is what its supposed to be - a ridiculously silly spoof of 70s kung fu films. Nov 23, I watch this movie all the time. Saddening to see the critics rating. I think they need to relax and not take a movie like this so seriously. Absolute ridiculous fun. If you just suspend your disbelief and expect nothing less, this film is a blast from beginning to end.
A spoof and a tribute to the 70's martial arts epic films, it does a good job of being an intentionally horrible Absolute ridiculous fun. A spoof and a tribute to the 70's martial arts epic films, it does a good job of being an intentionally horrible spoof but a great tribute nonetheless. The horrible dubbing, editing, bad jokes and campiness adds to the fun of the film.
A must watch. If you're just a regular person, this is a really, really funny movie.? Don't listen to the critics - those people are far too closed-minded to be able to appreciate this, some might say, 'unorthodox' humour. It is very crazy, but that's the If you're just a regular person, this is a really, really funny movie.?
It is very crazy, but that's the idea of it, and that is what makes it so funny. It uses classic tricks that are used in a lot of dubs to make it funny, and succeeds in what it aims to do - be weird-in-a-funny-way. The critics are far too stuck in their mainstream-comedy ways to appreciate this alternative kind of comedy. If YOU have heard good things from YOUR friends or you just think it sounds like the kind of thing you would like, get the DVD and watch it, because they will almost definitely be right.
Enjoy : … Expand. ImUnavailable Jun 28, A memorable and insanely quotable comedy, parodying old martial arts movies to great effect. The comedy is silly, ridiculous and brilliant. Though it temporarily sags in the middle this is still a fantastic movie and one which people should A memorable and insanely quotable comedy, parodying old martial arts movies to great effect. Though it temporarily sags in the middle this is still a fantastic movie and one which people should see regardless of critic reviews.
What's that have a different opinion? Your opinion is wrong cry about it. Its one of those films so stupid that its good. I really enjoyed it and it featured quite a few classic moments that are well worth watching. It also gives a huge diss to dubbed over martial arts movies, Which is pretty funny.
Maximusk Feb 12, This is a movie that the critics clearly do not get. The movie is all about laughs no matter what. If the critics fail to realize that then don't take their 1 or 2 score for granted. Its one of the funniest movies I saw as a kid and This is a movie that the critics clearly do not get.
Its one of the funniest movies I saw as a kid and rewatching it I still laughed just as hard. Wuehltisch Oct 22, The film is absolutely silly, and I guess you need a certain humour to appreciate it. But never have I ever laughed so hard. If you're a fan of puns, watch it. SlamdogX May 12, Apparently they don't know what spoof means. If I could get paid to be a snobby elitist I suppose I'd act like that too. BrunoP Feb 23, This is truly amazing. The cow fight scene is already a classic.
Those funny voices are always in my mind. I can't help but say "My name is Betty" all the time because it's ridiculously funny.
Do yourself a favor and watch this This is truly amazing. Do yourself a favor and watch this movie on a regular basis. Sign in to vote. SnoopyStyle 25 August They killed his parents but he already had kung fu powers even as a baby. He managed to escape and raised by rodents.
His powers continue to grow as he fends off his tormentors. He has a thing on his tongue that he calls Tonguey. The silly voice dubbing is funny for awhile but it gets repetitive. The same goes for the silly ridiculous fighting. The use of old kung fu movies also wears thin. There are some good comedy but all of it just feels repetitive. This genre parody has some cult appeal but it's limited in the broader audience.
Utter nonsense that does produce some sporadic laughs if you are in the mood bob the moo 10 March As a baby, the Chosen One had his family attacked and murdered by evil Master Pain, with only his martial arts skills saving him. Undefeated but broken, the Chosen One is raised by various rats and things in the valley and, as an adult he finds himself under constant attack from those that would seek to do the job they failed to do when he was a baby.
Seeking help from the Master Tang's Crane school to hone his style and make him stronger, the countdown is on till a showdown between Master Pain and the Chosen One. In case the title leaves you with any doubt that this is going to be a silly film, the opening scene features a terrible CGI baby fighting with a ninja master.
This silly approach continues throughout and the entire thing is one big nonsense from start to finish. Mixing modern footage that is dubbed and excerpts from Hu He Shuang Xing, the approach is very simple but does produce some silly laughs.
Too much of it is too puerile to appeal to a mass audience that cow fight was just stupid and unfunny but at times it is very funny just because it is so off the wall and has lots of lines that are unexpected. The "cast" is naturally dominated by Oedekerk doing silly voices but it works surprisingly well. He is hardly Oscar Wilde but if you buy into the humour then he will do it for you.
God help you if you don't want silly comedy though, because there isn't much else to be had in this film. The first time I loved this. On the second viewing, I hated it Oh well, at least I got a lot of laughs out of it one time.
I guess you could say this definitely a one-look film, perhaps just out of curiosity since it is different.
It's simply a spoof - an outrageous one at that - on these wild Hong Kong martial arts films that have become popular in recent years. Babies kung-fu fighting??
Tongues in people's mouthing fighting? Animals flying in the air doing drop kicks? Horrible on purpose dubbing in which the voices don't match the person saying them? Bad voices, too! A dog that barks but you don't hear him until 5 seconds later? Yup, that and a whole lot more - many funny things, many incredibly stupid things - that added up to a fun viewing experience the first time but too stupid to watch again.
Having an absurd sense of humor is a must. This is all tongue-in-cheek well, most of the time. As anyone who has been exposed to the crazy cinematic world of Godfrey Ho can attest, cutting up an old kung fu flick and re-editing it with original footage can prove to be very funny indeed.
I'm not saying that Kung Pow: Enter the Fist, a deliberately daft martial arts mash-up directed by and starring Steve Oederkerk, is quite as hilarious as, say, the unintentionally side-splitting nonsense that is Ninja Terminator my favourite Godfrey Ho 'classic' , but for avid fans of 70s chop socky, or of randomly absurd comedy in general, it should provide a reasonable amount of giggles.
As Oedekerk's character, The Chosen One, searches for the evil man who killed his family, the film throws in such left-field craziness as a kung fu cow, a one breasted woman, wood chuck nunchuks, and French aliens, along with lots of silly throwaway dialogue.
Although much of this zany stuff falls embarrassingly flat on its ass, and the basic idea eventually runs out of steam, there are just enough moments of truly inspired lunacy to make it all worth a watch. Quinoa 27 January Kung Pow: Enter the Fist had me beffudled, stunned, and sometimes in laughter. In it's funniest moments, it can be seen that the film does have an audience, but when it's stupid, my god.
This film does something I have rarely seen a film do- it goes BELOW stupidity into a sub-genre of comedy that will make some cringe and some in stitches. This technique is used in Kung Pow as Oedekerk drops all the sound from two kung fu movies from the seventies, edits them together and even brings himself into the action to create a parody with such brilliant sense the slight sarcasm gags as the one breasted woman, the milk fighting cow, the chosen one as a baby, and a computer animated lion in the sky who finishes his mufasa-like speech to the chosen one with "this is CNN".
I would reccomend this comedy to one particular group- zoned out druggies who are fans of kung fu movies and want to laugh their asses off. Others, procede with caution and see if it pays off. It almost did for me. Masterful tedg 7 January There are only two ways to master the world. One is through Kung Fu. There are only two ways of becoming a Kung Fu master: by doing the work, or by dedicated watching of certain movies.
This is no relaxing work in general, my little crickets, and this movie may need some guidance from someone trained in the inner art. Take my word for it that hidden beneath some repetitious, dumb, childish, cardboard humor this movie contains the final secrets for those waiting to get through the eleventh portal. Naturally, you cannot watch this in its English translation, rather you need to see it in the original language, actually several languages.
But be careful; one character is there to throw you off and is obfuscating in glossolalia. Thanks go to Quenten Tarantino. His uncredited efforts to bring this to the masses could result in a massive shift toward enlightenment. Also, the tongue-works rocked!
