sylvie a Kung Pow (2002) is a haunting, chilling cinematic masterpiece. I weep for the beauty of every frame. Every dumb joke that leaves the mouths of these genius actors makes me feel laser beams of joy erupt through my body. I am constantly amazed by this movie, it was better than any I've seen yet. To be honest, I am wholeheartedly shocked that it was not nominated in every Oscar category for every year that movie's have been being made ever. It is the greatest movie ever to be written, filmed, and released for public consumption. Amazing. 11/10.
Michael_Kennedy Well I went into this knowing nothing. The opening scene I found to be rather funny. And from then on I laughed once more. The movie is inane. The humor is aimed at towards people below the age of 5 and it is one of the most stupid, unfunny and boring films I have ever seen in my life. The humor consists of silly voices, silly faces and terrible dubbing and that is really about it. It is 1 hour and 21 minutes long and halfway through I had to stop, it is really boring. The film is suppose to be funny, I think. I'm not really sure. There are films that are both stupid and funny. Monty Python and the holy grail does this perfectly, but Monty python and the holy grail is stupid and intelligent. This is stupid and stupid. This really is a pile of crap. The most suicide inducing scenes are when really terrible music starts playing during fight scenes. I really hate this film. It is abysmal.
seiterman7 Kung-Pow is a woefully underrated film. The type of comedy the film contains is certainly not for everyone, but it works wonderfully for those familiar with older kung-fu movies. This movie is like what the "X Movie," series (think "Disaster Movie," "Epic Movie,", etc.) would be if those movies actually bothered to poke fun at the genres they are named after instead of making inane, unfunny pop-culture references.Roughly half of the film's humor won't make any sense at all without prior understanding of kung-fu movies. Bad lip-syncing/dubbing, over-the-top fight scenes and low-quality editing are all targets of parody in this movie and the end results are hilarious. Combining this with generally silly characters and some dumb comedy just works.If you're looking for a comedy movie that isn't too intelligent and you're familiar with kung-fu films, you will probably enjoy this movie a lot. If you aren't, then you should go watch a couple of those kung-fu films then watch this.
Tracy Gaffen this is one of the most funny movies that i have ever seen, not because of an amazing production value, but because it was just stupidly hilarious. if you watch this movie expecting it to be quick witted and well written, your watching it the wrong way. its the scary movie 1 of badly dubbed Asian kung-fu movies. my advice for those of you that did not like it: Chill out and stop taking it seriously, then you have a good laugh.the way this movie makes fun of things that are so bad in movies of the genre it is making fun of is great, mixed in with things that he included just for sheer hilarity... if you don't think your going to die because you cant get enough air, you take everything too seriously.
