  Hahahahahaha are you fucking kidding me?????

  An embarrassment to modern American “comedy.” Never seen a movie so thoroughly commit its budget and effort to just pure goofery. Fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun!!! A live-action animated kung fu gangster western in a fantasy world where landlords are awesome... only in The Movies!!

  "Jackie Chan and Buster Keaton meet Quentin Tarantino and Bugs Bunny."

  I really think Roger Ebert's comment perfectly explains it.

  96/100

  My neighbors are probably wondering what the hell is going on in my apt having heard me laughing out loud while revisiting this film! The 3 back to back scenes involving knives, snakes and road runner-esque chase scene were so funny I thought I was going to bust a gut laughing!

  Stunning creativity and imagination generate some truly memorable moments! The special effects dept worked overtime and it really shows!

  Masterful. Filmmaking as pure entertainment. So dead focused on having fun that it becomes utterly artful and significant. An ode to opting to say fuck it and being goofy and corny above all else. Coolness achieved through silliness, beauty achieved through stupidity. Stephen Chow never lost his inner child, and we’re all better off for it.

  a student is on one side of a raging river. there are no bridges. he has no boat. he shouts out to the master on the opposite bank. “How do I get to the other side?” the master shouts back: “You are on the other side.”

  I had the misfortune of not having a single good movie in the last 8 films I watched so I needed palate cleanser. Something guaranteed to bring me viewing pleasure and bring me joy for roughly 2 hours. Enter Kung Fu Hustle.

  What other film can you watch that will spoof a Road Runner cartoon and pay homage to Way of the Dragon moments later? The same film that will have two characters in a death scene quote lines from Spider-Man, Casablanca, Gone with the Wind and The Untouchables all in the same exchange. It's like a pop culture martial arts party.

  If that sounds a little crazy, then you get a good idea about what kind of martial arts is in the film as well. It crosses the line of reality and doesn't care. It's all the better for it.

  I'm just happy from beginning to end when I watch this.

  I hadn't seen this since it was released a decade ago, but it strikes me that in all that time since Marvel has released like 30 superhero movies and not a one of them is half as entertaining, imaginative and profound as this. And it runs only 99 minutes.

  Things I learned on rewatching:

  1. Lam Suet! Lam Suet is in this!

  2. The landlord and landlady (types in homage to Chor Yuen's The House of 72 Tenants, a non-action movie that was Hong Kong's biggest hit of 1973, topping even the mighty Bruce Lee) are played by Yuen Wah and Yuen Qiu. Yuen Wah, of course, is a longtime stuntman and actor (you can see him as the villain…
