Rating: Summary: Hahaha!!! Review: Okay this is definately one of those movies that you are nearly afraid to admit you loved! In order to watch this movie you need to check your brain at the door and not take it seriously. Once you've done this get ready to laugh your ... off! I haven't seen a movie that made me laugh throughout like that in eons. This is quite an original approach to the mainstream spoofs and I think it was well done! Some of the funny scenes made you say "What the?" And then you burst out in laughter over its absurdity. Like the face on the tip of the main characters tongue. What the heck? But I couldn't help but laugh out loud. That is when you say, "tongue in- tongue in cheek". If you want to see a movie with a group of friends and just get silly, watch this! I sure hope that they will make a sequel! I will be there to see it in the theatres. Enjoy it!
Rating: Summary: The worst movie ever--bar none... Review: I collect martial arts movies and Hong Kong cinema. That being said, I take martial arts movies seriously. There are quite a few martial arts movies that are meant to be comedies, but where you need to make the distinction is dubbing. 1970's dubbing was appauling---highly innacurate translations and plenty of adlibbing. The result is a movie that pales in comparison to the original translation. Subtitles are a different story and follow the translation as closely as possible. So, to enjoy a martial arts movie is to understand its original meaning, not a butchered dubbed version. If you look at Kung Pow it's based on the whole premise that dubbed martial arts movies are funny. Being a fan and knowing how bad dubbing is, I'm more angered by Kung Pow than anything, because it makes people think of a stereotype and base all martial arts movies on cheesy dubbing they saw on Kung Fu Theater in the 80's. My point is Kung Pow misses the point. Martial arts films are awesome when watched in their original form. Making fun of dubbing is like making fun of a butchered version of a film---it's pointless and stupid. And that's exactly what Kung Pow ends up doing---butchering yet another film (the one they used for the movie) and making it into a dub-fest of stupidity. Kung Pow is making fun of dubbing as if that's what martial arts movies are all about. I'm sorry, but the director misses the point and obviously doesn't understand martial arts films. My brother made me sit through this farce. I hated every minute of it. I suggest you check out some of Sammo Hung's older films in original language with subtitles. Then you may just understand what makes martial arts films appealing to fans. It's not the dubbing---it's the acting, the many forms of martial arts and the actors that make the heroes in these films bigger-than-life. Kung Pow just doesn't get it, evidently neither do people that laugh at this horrid movie.
Rating: Summary: worst movie I have ever seen Review: I like Oedekerk, I really do, so I can't really say I don't like or "get" his humor. Most of his movies are super! But this movie was so bad I still have flashbacks of sitting through it. Holy God, it was so not funny. It dragged on to the point of making me fall asleep, only to find when I woke that it wasn't over yet and it wasn't funny yet. My husband LIKED this movie. I still tell him he owes me big time for making me sit through this completey asinine, unfunny, tedious excuse for a movie.
Rating: Summary: Awesome video. Review: I love all kids of girls but I truely love this Chinese girls. How in the world do they get these ... girls. I laugh so hard when he said It Hurt ... Man. Aslo like when the evil man said I like girls. Who don't like them. I will get the DVD soon. I'll watch it until I can't take it anymore. When is the next movie showing? The cow was awesome but need more partice makes perfect. Thanks a lot. Mark Putnam
Rating: Summary: spoofs galore! Review: I have always been a fan of spaceballs, airplane and the like. But this one takes the cake! with non-stop belly-laughs and chuckles, this will keep you laghing for days. Hilarious lines and scenes send you on a comedy roler-coaster ride! with take-offs on The Matrix and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, this is a must for spoof lovers. Enjoy the show! I know I did.
Rating: Summary: The Trailer is fifty times funnier than the film. Review: I thought this movie was going to be so funny. I was really looking forward to this movie as I am a fan of the 70's kung fu flicks. The beginning was pretty funny. But then...it just died out. ... What was with that "wee ooh wee ooh" stuff that the girl kept spitting out? I could understand if it was a mockery of some Kung Fu movie stereotype. But I honestly do not remember anything like that in the 70's kung fu flicks. Wee ooh wee ooh. What is that supposed to mean? Where did it come from? And more importantly, how is that supposed to be funny?
Rating: Summary: I....I..Dont know what to say.... Review: Horrid doesent even come close to discribing the pure and undeniable lack of comedy in this film.I dont know what kind of sick and tiwsted person would find this film funny, not because its in bad taste(Dogma being one of my favorite films..nuff' said)but because a decompsing monkey stricken with a terminal illness could write a better script.Im not even going to talk abould dialouge or racial insensitivity because it is simply to painful to recolect those scenes from this steming pile of dung.Severing your own apendages and having Joseph Liberman play "pin the arm on the lump" with your bleeding corpse would probably hold more comical significance.But thats just one highly educated mans opinion.
Rating: Summary: funniest movie in the world!... Review: in the begining there is a baby part that you can never stop laughing! the first words you here is ''open thee mouth'' so then the dude blows up the house and then the baby crawls and starts rolling down a hill and.....wait i dont want to give it away you'll have to see it your self man!
Rating: Summary: Great for kids who are between Barney and Bond Review: This movie was great for my 8 and 10 year old boys. The extent of the profanity was a three letter word for backside. There were no four letter words, and no frontal nudity, and the most sex we saw was a tongue 'fight'. Bloodless violence. The sight gags and jokes were totally at their level (we, the parents, were cracking up too, but only because the kids were belly laughing the whole time). I recommend this for kids who have outgrown the Disney type flicks, but whose parents are not quite yet ready for them to watch James Bond. Well, OK, I cheated, I let my kids see 'The Matrix' last year. Good thing it was spoofed in this movie too, as it helped them get the cow scene! A thumbs up. Borrow a kid to watch it with. 'So cute...Bye Bye!'
Rating: Summary: MANY THUMBS UP! Weeeoooo Weeeeoooo Review: I LOVE this movie! This is one of the first DVDs I have ever purchased, and is also one of the most watched. Aside from the movie's antics, the DVD is very creative and well put together in its presentation. The options are great as well as numerous (check out the audio options). Steve Oedekerk's humor is inventive and childish. It appears I notice something new every time I pop it in the player. Some may think this movie to be hilarious, others, stupid. I found this movie to be BOTH! If you like "Ace Ventura", "Beavis & Butthead" and even, Tom Green stupid ca-ca mouth, type humor, then this movie is for you. If your comedic tastes differ, and you prefer more intellectually driven comedy, then this movie is NOT for you. My fav. quote "Let your anger be like a monkey...." Nevermind, I don't want to give it away.
