Chris_Rowan’s review:
Wow. This movie is really something else. About as incompetently plotted a film as I've ever seen and all the better for it. It seems like a group of guys were in a band, happened to take a Tae Kwan Do class together and also had an uncle who was a producer so they made a movie with their Tae Kwan Do instructor as the sorta lead. There's bikers, there's ninjas, there's a drug deal that goes awry, there's suits, there's casual gang-type wear, there's friendship, there's a LOT of male bonding over fried rice, mutual orphanism, beach pranks, roundhouse kicks, attempted stabbing, musicianship and laughter. This movie has it all and it doesn't care to 'connect' any of it, thus the most endearingly ironic film title of all time was made. Watch it. I guarantee you won't regret it.
