Kung Fu Hustle is ultimately a good movie.

Note, it’s not really what I wanted it to be really. The action scenes were a lot more intense than I expected and the film had a lot less slapstick than I was hoping for, and also, and this may just be the English dubbing I watched it in on my first time through, I think the timing of the jokes was a little off. Even the sight gags seemed a little laggy.

On the other hand, the more I think about it, the more I realized that if the movie is flawed, it has nothing to do with its subject matter, story, or plot.

It’s worth a rental at the very least and is definitley worth a purchase if Kung-Fu movies are your thing.
