Kung Fu Hustle is a truly PERFECT film.
Every scene is perfect. Every character is perfect. Every joke is perfect. And the Kung Fu styles are perfect for each character.
And no matter how many times I watch Kung Fu Hustle, the relationship between the main character and the mute girl breaks my heart, and then the final scene puts all those pieces back together better than they were before.
Kung Fu Hustle is an antidepressant for the soul.
💯🎯
this is my go to movie when I'm feeling sick or down in the dumps
that one guy you said looks like Bruce Lee, actually played Bruce Lee in one of the Ip Man movies. also, he was in another movie with Steven Chow, Shaolin Soccer, where he plays the goalie, and he looked just like Bruce Lee!
Beat me to it friend. Gotta love his goalie outfit in Shaolin Soccer!!!
But he didn't like Ip Man. He said it wasn't "real" enough.
Trying not to be a AshHole.
He even is dressed like him in Shaolin Soccer, lol!
Yeah heres the problem, every asian looks like Bruce Lee 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
@Pᴀᴡɴ Sᴛᴀʀs🇫ᴀɴ IP Man was an amazing film. To me it was sad he didn't finish it.
Also the actress for the landlady is a proper screen legend. Her name's Yuen Qiu, she trained in fight choreography and opera under the same master as Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung, and she literally only got a part in this movie by chance: she was accompanying a junior actress to the auditions, had no intent of auditioning herself, but the director recognised her and basically begged her to be in the film.
Sammo Hung is a legend.
actually not recognize her, Stephen chow already has the image of "landlady" and he trying to look for among the interviewees, and when he interviewing Yuen Qiu's junior sister, she was smoking while reading magazine at behind he saw that and says "Yes! this is the landlady i looking for."
I bet she can kick some serious ass in real life
@@gdiaz8827 she is Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung's senior under their master, so she can kick their asses.
@@terenceng5177 impressive which style of kung fu
As someone who once watched this film at least 2-3 times a day every day during college in 2005, I have to say this is still one of my favorite comedies. The knife throwing assassination attempt scene never ceases to make me laugh.
Yes you got it right, year 2005 is the first time I've watched this movie too! I'm still on the 5th grade at that time and was just 10 y/o. Now I'm 27 and I still don't get bored watching this movie many many times.
This movie is a great homage to Hong Kong Kung Fu cinema of the 70s and 80s. The three skilled fighers from the villiage, including the landlord/landlady couple, are kung fu movie veterans from that era. Stephen Chow himself, the director and main character, is a huge fan of martial arts and those movies. It's an awesome and unique combination of traditional martial arts, modern CGI and comedy.
Love your reaction! :D
Love you mate, thank you for this comment ❤️
@@justtrustash He also made Shaolin Soccer, same style. funny.
I'd say it's a homage to all cinema, because half of the stuff this movie reference are from western classics.
@@justtrustash since it's getting closer to Christmas I would like you to react to my favorite Christmas horror movie Krampus (2015).
@@justtrustash now you should try shaolin Soccer its same actors mostly
This is what you get when stunt coordinators make a movie. Nonstop epicness!
FACTS!! What a legendary comment, appreciate you for watching
Just like john wick
Tai Chi: (used by the landman) A kind of kung fu that overcomes rigidity with softness，from Wudang faction.
Lion's Roar : (Kungfu used by the landlady) a kind of sonic Kungfu, derived from Shaolin Kungfu, but not as exaggerated as in the movie.
Devil Guqin: weapon used by the blind brothers, a kind of sonic , fufictitious weapon,originating from martial arts novels. They encountered the more powerful Sonic Kung Fu -Lion's Roar in movie and was defeated.
Twelve-way Tan Leg: (used by one of the three warriors) a kung fu that relies on legs to attack, derived from Shaolin Kung Fu
Iron ring fist: (used by one of the three warriors) a boxing technique using iron rings as a weapon, originating from the Hongquan Fist faction
Wulang Bagua Cudgel: (used by one of the three warriors) It is said that a stick technique originated from the Song Dynasty, from the Hongquan Fist faction
Toad / Frog Kung Fu: Originated from Shaolin, a real Kung Fu, but not as exaggerated as in the movie. The Beast's actor in the movie is also a Kung Fu superstar.
Tathagata Palm: The palm used by the male protagonist, a fictitious kungfu originating from martial arts novels, and there is no real existence.
The three tenants in the movie are all played by real kung fu masters.
The actor of the landman is Jackie Chan’s senior brother, who acted as stand-in for Bruce Lee in old times.
The actress of the landlady is Jackie Chan’s senior sister,too
Fascinating information. Thanks so much for sharing!
Awesome info, thanks for this 🙏
For another slapstick kung fu comedy you must see Shaolin Soccer (2001) from the same director, absolutely hilarious.
And then more into action fantasy comedy,
A Chinese Odyssey Part One and Part Two (1995).
If you're ready for some more serious kung fu/martial arts film you'll enjoy these two:
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon (2000)
Hero (2002)
2nd Hero
Both good movie, very recommendes.
and house of the flying daggers, in the style of crouching tiger & hero
@@foudelou Zhang Ziyi is amazing in both of those films!
"Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" is the American version of this style...
It's Video Games / Comic Books / Music, and is Criminally Underrated.
Such a philosophical movie! The guys don't have superpowers by the way, they just have different Kung Fu levels! These are the ideal martial arts, what the ancients had in mind to achieve! Also the philosophy of it, that is portrayed in Shaolin Kung Fu as well, is that the Kung Fu is inside of all of us and just needs to be unlocked! It's also smth the ancients believed, which I think to a certain degree it is true because you will need more than just training to unlock it, but it is there! Legendary movies....
hiahiahiahiahiahiahaiahiahaiahaiahaiahaiahaiahaiajaiahaiahaihiahaiahia
@@juanlu3958 what's so funny?
@@MysticalJessica i dont think ancient Chinese knows buddha palm mate.its all fantasy
@@juanlu3958 Well... to put it in Bruce Lee's words: Don't focus on that palm or you will miss on all that heavenly glory.
I never saw anyone watch a kung fu movie and think of superpowers. thats what happens when all you know is superhero movies. hong kong cinema fights are a different class
As a twelve year old watching this, this movie was everything. It HAD everything. A truly compelling story. A redemption arc for the MC with a love story. Impeccable action sequences that were complimented with comedy!! A true classic, through and through.
He wasn't truly evil to begin with to get the redemption arc. Point me an innocent bystanders who he has killed
This is one of the few movies that I can watch over and over again and not get tired of it
FACTS!!
Stephen Chow itself is legendary actor.. and his films are in every genre.. sci-fi, kungfu, horror, suspense, fiction, action, and lots more.. watch more his old films..
Not only is it hilarious, its also surprisingly poignant and beautiful. Thanks for watching it Ash. :)
My honour my brother ❤️
In Shang Chi, you can see the poster of Kungfu Hustle in his apartement
Because Marvel want to make an homage to the real rings master 9:42
This movie is legendary classic
Shaolin Soccer is another done by him. Another classic comedy and feel good movie! You'll love it
Definitely add it to the list, appreciate you mate, thank you for watching ❤️
The hero was actually the lost son of the land lord and lady that is why he was so special. They also say that he reminds them of their son.
Watching your reactions makes me genuinely smile. There is a childlike joy that you exude and it's fun to watch. I knew when I saw this posted that this would be right up your alley.
Love you my brother! Honour to have you on this channel ❤️
Shaolin soccer next!
No more soccer!
The knife throwing scene had me laughing so hard I almost blacked out in the theater. The whole movie was a riot
One of my favorite movies ever!! So glad y’all liked it, this movie is so hilarious.
Honour to have watched it! Thank you for watching you legend ❤️
This is literally a live action Anime and one of the best ones I think
19:56 probably the most apt cutaway I’ve ever seen.
in the actual chinese context of the movie. the 2 couples are Yang Guo and Dragon Girl. they're the famous martial arts tragic couples. there's even tv dramas and anime about them.
you guys are great. I saw this movie in 2004 in the theatre when I was 15. Love this film. Glad you guys love some Cantonese style humor too. 🙏
Appreciate the love my brother ❤️
Of course bro. I actually live in Zhuhai Guangdong China now which is right across from Macau and Hong Kong. So the area I live in, they speak mostly Cantonese dialect like the actors in this film. It's a crazy language with so much fluctuation. Great for absurb movies like this one haha.
I don't remember who wrote it...But he perfectly expressed the essence of the film in one sentence: "This story is about a good guy who can't become bad and therefore he goes to the bright side balancing Chi in his soul" By the way, from personal experience, this film was given to me for my birthday as a child)))
Loved the reaction bro. Fun fact, a family friend actually drew the martial arts books that the homeless man sells to the kid!
No way!! That’s epic haha
Next Movie: “Shaolin Soccer”
Same actors and director. Another great movie!!
Movie is a love letter to action flick, each "escalation" of the Kung Fu power is an homage to the evolution of kungfu action flick. From the gangland musical style from the 50s to the solid Beijing Opera fight style, to actual kungfu from the 3 master hiding in Pigsty alley, all the way to the Dragonball matrix fight at the end. Stephen Chow (who played the main character) write, direct and produce this and many of his film has this "ultra grunge " aesthetic as a knock on how movies make the heroes or any character to be flawlessly supermodel beautiful, he wanted to show there is beauty, power and virtue in the more of everyday people. The translation of Landlord and Landlady's name is kind of off base with Helen and Troy. Stephen name them after the most beautiful couple of a famous wuxia (martial chivalry) novel that had been made into film/tv multiple times. A western analogy is like naming them Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen. It is as if saying that when they got older, they retire there and looks old and normal.
Still and will always be one of my favorite movies.
Mine too now!!
I feel like anyone who has seen this film MUST have it in their Top 5 All Times... its in mine for sure
Yes yes yes!!! One of the greatest movies out there! Feels like a live action anime that actually looks good!!
Thanks the legendary brother sister team ! Y’all had me laughing watching you laughing at this classic!
"This guy... looks exactly like Bruce Lee, a little bit doesn't he?"
"No he doesn't..."
That's Danny Chan, who is Bruce Lee in the Ip Man movies, the bio-series "The Legend of Bruce Lee" and the Bruce-parody character in "Shaolin Soccer"
Fun facts; The Landlord is Yuen Wah who was one of Bruce Lee's stunt doubles, and can be seen currently in "Shang Chi" as the old archery master. The Landlady was one of the teenage kung fu girls who save Roger Moore's a$$ from a gang of thugs in "Moonraker"
Next : shaolin soccer
Shaolin soccer next
Movie is always a classic ☯️👏 Great reaction as always man 🤘
My brother Charlie, always supporting..cannot thank you enough ❤️
You can watch Shaolin Soccer ⚽.....you will love it 😂😂😂
Will do mate ❤️
shaolin soccer worth a watch.
KFH is the high water mark of HK action/comedy - Bill Murray (iirc) reckons it the best comedy of all time. Thanks for taking the time to appreciate it, this was a great reaction!
This was one hell of a comedic movie reaction.! 😂❤️
You legend! Thank you for the love and support as always ❤️
your sister is amazing, should bring her back for more reactions, this is one of the best reaction channels for me, thank you for the great content
If you go back to the scene just after the Axe Gang member ends up in a trash barrel, it looks like it was ( Rabbit Tooth) Jane that did it. Meaning she was super fast, possibly another master living in the slum village.
Check out The Road To Wellville. 1994
Tell u a thing. The husband of the lad lady. He was a stunt man from Bruce Lee in Enter the Dragon in 1972. All the jumping shot was done by him. Marvel movie Shang-chi. He was the playing the leader of the Chinese group.
- No kidding, this is for me one of the best tragi comedy films in history
- The choreographer of this film was the same one who staged the scenes in the Matrix)
- Stephen Chow himself shot this film and took the main role in it himself (and he is preparing a sequel)
- Yuen Wa (Vermieter) also starred in Shang Chi and Danny Chen (whom you called similar to Bruce Lee) really created his image, but already in Shaolin soccer (also shot Stephen Chow, I highly advise if you haven't seen) and played Bruce Lee personally, but already in Ip Man 4
- Yuan Qiu (Hostess/Elena Troyanskaya) initially did not pretend to any role in the casting and came on a tip from a friend and she did not pass, but the filming team saw her face with a cigarette in her mouth and immediately chose her XDD
- Bill Murray himself praised this picture
I was eating pretzels while i was watching this and when the guy got bit by the snakes and his lips swelled up i laughed so hard i spit the pretzels onto the floor, this one was good.
I watched this movie with my father when I was a kid about 120 times but recently I decided to watch it again at the age of 18 with my friend and realized that I actually just watch life-action anime
I absolutely love this movie,easily top 10 movie on my list
Definitely should have been a Kung-Fu Hustle 2..and I like your idea of a Netflix series on the town. Would be hilarious.
Stephen Chow confirmed Kung-Fu Hustle 2 is coming but not sure how long it will take yet. I like the Netflix series on the town too. But it's never gonna happen because Stephen Chow likes to have "full control" over his movies and is free from intervenes. That's why he rejected Hollywood's invitations multiple times.
It's awesome that you guys reviewed this movie. It is one of my TOP TOP TOP TOP favorites. I feel like nobody even knows it exists... but it combines action, comedy, drama, and everything into the same movie. The movie literally entertains out of the gate. I would love to see a Netflix series with this.
If any director want to make a live action anime movie this is the perfect example to refer to
what many doesn't realised is that Stephen Chow is himself a martial artist too.
One of the funniest movies I've ever seen and the fight scenes are epic 🔥🔥
30:21, you're totally correct. It's a thing with Stephen Chow's movies. (You should check out his others movies too). You will never get bored, even after watching them hundred times. That's why Stephen Chow is beyond legend and is being idolized and worshiped by pretty much 1+ billion Chinese people in China and Oversea Chinese all around the world.
There is a western movie that has a similar hilarious humor and is also an homage to the old eastern kung fu movies. So after Kung Fu Hustle you should check out Kung Pow - Enter the Fist.
Hell yeah!
The character who plays the Fairy is actually a Hung Gar Kung Fu master Chiu Chi-Ling
1:27 What an insult! "You don't know how to use that." Perfect sibling combination.
I might have watched this movie more that 100 times. Its that good. Glad u enjoyed
the knife scene LOL ....... every time
She really beat him with real sandal and it was real. Behind the scene Stephen chow himself said it was hurt that was why he running. That hit was real.
That landlady is one of the 007 bond girls back then
If you enjoyed Stephen Chow Kung Fu Hustle, Definitely watch Shaolin Soccer, which he also made. :)
It's funny that you mentioned Bolo Yeung earlier in the vid. He's the actor that plays the World's Top Killer.
No wayyyyyy!! Omg, this has blown me away..thank you for this comment
This movie is pure legend status. Shaolin Soccer is next. Really glad you enjoyed this. Shows you guys have great taste
Appreciate the love my brother! Will do ❤️
I second Shao Lin soccer. Not quite as funny but it has some scenes so over the top I about fell out of my chair
U must watch “a chinese odyssey” and ‘king of comedy’. Stephen chow is asian comedy king.
Will do mate ❤️
Best Reaction I've ever seen in this movie yet 🤣First 5 mins of the movie Ash is already Laughing his ass off
Hahaha bro I never laugh this hard since Borat! What a legendary movie..appreciate the love
I really hope you guys do Shaolin Soccer now
"What the frog just happened to him?" - Perfect!
This movie is just magical and timeless
I am from Hong Kong, love the reaction from you guys haha ! Stephen chow is a LEGEND !!! so happy you guys enjoyed the movie : D
Saw this in the cinema and just fell about laughing. Loved the Untouchables reference (those who watch the dubbed version miss it).
The main character is the director, Stephen Chow.
Do Shaolin Soccer next. Same group of actors, director, and producer. Not the same level of action as KungFu Hustle, but better story and comedy imo.
This reaction was sick. Was awesome to see you appreciate both the humor and action of the movie.
You got to watch shaolin soccer 🤣 its also with the 2 main characters 🤣🤣
@@Kadunk911 exactly whahaha. Good old movies and always fun to watch. Legendary
4 mins in, already hilarious reaction! thanks guys, needed that smile
Yep. The Last Supper....with this playing in the background...perfect.
Chi Ling Chiu, who played the tailor, was 60 when they made this. He's in his late 70s now and as of a couple of years ago was still preforming in actions movies.
He also teaches Hung Gar Kung Fu in San Fransisco and Hong Kong iirc.
Stephen Chow, who plays the main character, the Buddhist palm guy, is the director and creator of this film. He’s a Hong Kong movie genius, and his brand of action comedy is a genre onto itself. Kung Fu Hustle is probably the most mainstream of his films, and broke into the international stage, but he has a whole host of amazing movies spanning decades. Some of the best titles are Shaolin Soccer, god of cookery and the Fight back to school trilogy.
What’s amazing about Chow’s comedy is that there are a lot of culturally specific jokes, like how he incorporates spoofs of Hong Kong gang culture and violence, but it transcends the Hong Kong culture and can be universally appreciated. He’s by far more favorite Hong Kong movie maker, and he’s an awesome actor to boot.
The funniest film of the past 20 years...and that's while reading subtitles.
2:47 nice catch, he played a bruce lee like character in a prior movie shaolin soccer and later on portrayed bruce lee in the ip-man series.
As I'm sure others are recommending as well, check out the film Stephen Chow made before Kung Fu Hustle, a film called Shaolin Soccer. It combines kung fu with soccer/football - brilliant! (and hilarious!)
And notice at the beginning of Kung Fu Hustle the first time we meet Stephen Chow's character he destroys a soccer ball and says, "No more soccer!" - that was a nod to "Shaolin Soccer" which had been a big hit in Hong Kong.
Bro, I saw this when it came out and I forgot how great it is! Glad y'all liked it so much. Fun to see y'all experience it for the first time. So good!! Stephen Chow was supposed to be in a legit Bruce Lee biopic but they wanted to make too many changes so he bailed on the project. Too bad. Anyway, keep em coming bruv!
🤣🤣
The musicians are playing chords. Sharps/knives. Minors. Majors. Power Chords. Old Dead/Ancient Songs.
Steven Chow is a Genius.
"Shaolin Soccer" is another... Anime Live Action? It's about Soccer, and you'd like it.
I can only think of one movie similar to this, and that is Shaolin Soccer.
There is another movie you can try, its called Kung Pow: Enter the Fist. I remember hating that movie when it first saw it. Ten something happened and i slowed started to love it.
I love this movie...i lose it laughing every single time I watch it
Nice reaction from ridicule to appreciation... Yeah that's a change man..
Great movie, one of may favorites...
Stephen Chow is a huge fan of Bruce Lee and Chinese Martial Arts novels. Almost in all of his film you will find references to these. The ending segment fight scenes, most of those very 'stylized' martial arts moves including the toad tranformation are all based off fighting styles in Yin Yong's Martial Arts novel. (Yin Yong is probably one of the most famous and legendary author known for his martial arts novels). The villain is also one of the 5 'Dragons' in Hong Kong. Two of the more infamous dragons are Jacky Chan and Bruce Lee.
Recomended....1.God of cookery. 2.King of Beggars.3.Flirting scholar.4.Justice my foot. 5.Royal Tramp. 6.God of Gambler 2..all Stephen Chow movies
This is one of the movie reaction you can watch a hundred times and never get bored. Good job both of you.
Not sure someone already commented about this or you already realized. The landlord and landlady kungfu compliment each other too. Landlord “Taichi” style is soft and passive type of kungfu, while the landlady lion roar is pure strength and hard type. Together they are good balance and like Yin and Yang.
Your comment about this is like an Anime was the first thing that came to my mind when i first saw the movie
this movie will still be funny decades and decades from now. stephen chow comedy is funny for all ages and doesn't need to be deep or referential
Except you probably should know who Bruce Lee is, otherwise his reference in Shaolin Soccer would be less funnier
I'm really enjoying watching this with you two.
Please watch shaolin soccer 🤣🤣🤣
Will do ❤️
@@justtrustash cant wait mate🙏🏾🔥❤ you and your sis gonna laugh 🤣
Many of the hk movies do have stories and meaning behind, and that usually associated with the history and culture. Good that the kung fu catches your eye, but there are also some key messages behind. Enjoy our movies!
18:52 This guy's hips saving this thaaoon! 😀😂🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆 I am rolling 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
17:43 That was the funniest goddamn thing I've ever heard in a commentary of this film.
I love how calm the little sister was. 😀
What I like Ash, you are not just laugh at everything, you really know the references, you can really get it.
0:26 hell your sister can steal me. I wouldn't mind being a party of y'all's family, y'all seem awesome. 😂
This is probably my favorite "martial arts" film of all time.
