Shaolin Soccer....

[RussinOhio]

I just watched this little-known movie and I gotta say one of the most original laugh-out-loud movies I've ever seen. Just simply funny as all hell!

Basically about a down on his luck Kung-Fu master who wishes to instruct the world about the virtures of Kung-Fu....NOT for fighting...but because Kung-Fu "transcends all that....Kung-Fu is a state of mind"...but nobody gives a damn! So he meets a former soccer coach (also down-on-his-luck) and together they come up with a "great idea" KUNG-FU SOCCER!!!

The CGI effects are cool as hell...the Kung-fu techniques on a over-the-top cartoon level(Meaning RIDICULOUS)....but thats the point. Think an Asian version of a Monty Python movie and you've got it. The movie pokes fun at the whole Kung-Fu movie genre.

I watched this thing twice and I laughed harder the second time! I swear I nearly choked to death laughing!

I only know of this movie because I caught it on cable....I assure you I'm gonna look for the DVD....this gem is a keeper!

Remember....."KUNG FOO....BARRICADE SHEILD!!!!!"
