Its ok. Stephen Chow's other movies are better imo
like this one more than kung fu hustle
It depends TBH.
I honestly liked his other older films. I didn't like the last 2 Shaolin Soccer or kung fu hustle. I felt there was too much reliance on using CGI effects rather making a funny joke or scene. Where in older films practial effects didn't look so cringe.
example:
From Beijing with Love.
Ling Ling Chat is shown a new weapon from Q branch and it's a solar powered torch.
When someone tried to kill him with his backwards/forwards firing gun.
Or when he being operated on to remove a bullet, without anesthetic. he ask for an adult movie.
Nothing beats the God of Gambler/All for the winner series
one of his best work
Rewatched it on SBS on the weekend.
This scene (plus the song) has been living rent free since then: https://youtu.be/IL3uQNTwvzQ?si=H0jiZnhYfv8oRnmQ
Now it's living rent free on mine too!
Thought that was going to be karaoke scene!
now cos you mentioned that scene it is now in my head…..
Classic movie
Brings back memories of high school and borrowing VCDs.
Stephen Chow wow
Someone should post free to air TV as a popular freebie deal 😂
There is a huge deal on free air to breathe. Free delivery, long running deal!
If you hover it says expires on 2 March 2025 at 7:30pm, so a little more than 3 weeks (from today)
Free ads to watch (between clips of shaolin soccer) @ SBS on demand
Would a non football/ martial arts fan still enjoy it? (I avoided correcting my mistake as it was too funny)
It depends on your sense of humour, but I think so. It's not a serious soccer nor martial arts movie at all. If you do end up enjoying it, then I also recommend Kung Fu Hustle which is a spiritual sequel, of sorts.
I remember when this was at the movies- how times change
This is one of those movies you have to pass down to the next generation and show them how awesome it was
Can't watch this film without the complimentary YouTube classic "shaolin soccer with vanilla ice and eminem" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9RyGGhrhpg
Did someone ever find a way to download from SBS on demand?
Been trying to find this again to watch for a while; thanks OP! The stream has begun
Best movie
