Summary: One of Stephen's best movies
Review: Shaolin Soccer is an extremely funny movie. The story is pefectly combination between Shaolin Kung Fu and Soccer. You can get almost every mood from this movie, it's not only comedy but it could be action and drama in the same one. Shaolin team are funny with outstanding characters each one of them. I'm not sure how US version is going to be but I really loved original version which I have own DVD as well. Stephen did a very good job as a leading actor, director, and screenwriter. I'm highly recommend this movie if you are looking for funny movie, you also will get to know a new Kung Fu action comedian, Stephen Chow. I'm pretty sure that you will like this movie even though you don't like Stephen Chow.

Summary: Even girls like it...
Review: OK, so let me just say that I'm not a big fan of sports flicks.
Not a fan of soccer. Not a fan of campy comedy. Not a fan
of martial arts films. All of the above are cool in their
own rights, but definitely not in my top ten list. That
being said, I think this is one of the best movies ever made.
Somehow the combination sold me. And if you want a few extra
laughs, check out the subtitles on the import DVD version.

Summary: Funniest movie of the last decade!
Review: If you like Mangas, The Matrix, Crouching Tiger, Austin Powers humor, then you'll definitely need to watch this movie. It reminded me of old comedy movies, where the simplest things, if put in the right place will make you laugh till you cry.
The plot is quite simple, a bunch of shaolin masters who got lousy jobs since their master died, will team back again to win a soccer grand prize of 1,000,000$, and each one of them has his own "Super Power". The best part is when they start facing stronger and stronger opponents; you get the best showdown ever in martial arts and special effects.
Long story short, go and watch it, you won't regret it.

Summary: Respecting the audience...
Review: Miramar & Disney, why don't you respect the audience and allow them to watch the uncut, original version instead of your edited Americanised version? What's next? Cutting a couple of movements in Vivaldi's Four Seasons because it's not fast paced enough? Respect the audience, respet the author, show the real thing.

Summary: Happy Surprise
Review: It was difficult to find this movie to order on-line, but I finally found it on [store]. I bought it for [price]!This is actually a very good movie! I appreciated the movie's fantastic martial arts scenes and I was surprised that a movie from China had such interesting special effects. The movie had gags, dry humor, great martial arts and a good plot. Highly recommend.

Review: This is an awsome movie from Stephen Chow. Visually it's pleasing to the creative eyes. Sound separation is much better than most Hong-Kong-originated movies. Must See!!!!

Summary: Shaolin Soccer rules
Review: Stephen Chow has made one of the finest comedies ever to come from Hong Kong. A supreme blend of Kung Fu action, excellent special effects, cracking gags, visual hilarity and lets not forget soccer! It all adds up to Grandstand meets Matrix meets Tom & Jerry. Although it is heavily laden with special effects these in no way hinder the movie, they only serve to add and reinforce it. This is a rare occasion where they could have had more special effects. If you want to see a unique comedy, then look no further than Shaolin Soccer! PS. See the directors cut on DVD, for some reason some of the funniest jokes were cut out?

Summary: Best in special effects!!!!!!!!!!

Summary: Overated work of Chow
Review: Dare no one criticize the "king of comedy" stephen Chow or, OK, most of you westerners may have a different taste.
From the point of view of a Hong Kong born native speaker of cantonese, I have no choice but to say that Shaolin Soccer was overrated. SC's hilarious jokes went stale and he was too obssesed with the use of special effect too. This movie makes me miss his past works like "from beijin with love", etc so much.
another point is that, SC are now more concern of the market of the rest of Asia and even Western, he eliminates all jokes which only locals find funny. So to me, as a Hong Kong people, I am disappointed.
