If you like Stephen Chow films, you gotta try his all time classics, “the Chinese Odyssey” or “Flirting Scholar.” You will love those comedy films.
Hi Greg,
If you're reading this, please check out Ricky Oh: The Story of Ricky.
Although a reaction to that might be age restricted.
Broh now you must see Kung pow Enter the fist... you will die of laughter!!!
(Sorry mi English i'm from San Juan Argentina) my regards, brother! I really enjoy your content!!!!!..
Next, I recommend Stephen Chow's CJ7...It very much inspired by ET though, no hate only love....
I just watched your Kung Fu Hustle video, and was looking for Shaolin Soccer. And now it's here. Thanks guys. 😁😁😁👍
The actor who played Golden Leg, Ng Man Tat, recently passed away. He was a legend of Hong Kong Cinema and appeared in a lot of Stephen Chow's films
RIP Uncle Tat missed him
Truly a SHAME he wasn’t mentioned during the Oscars In Memoriam that year.
The legendary uncle Tat
It's not really recent by now. But he's really truly one of the best HK actors out there.
He was the partner of Stephen chow.
I've loved this movie since I was a kid, it's hands-down the most hysterical movie I've ever experienced. No matter how many times I watch it I just crack up, so glad you guys enjoyed this one!
Same
Kung fu hustle and kung pow are good ones
Me too brother.
Same here along with Kung Fu Hustle, pure genius movies
The most hysterical? Damn
So glad y'all are watching this Classic! How did y'all miss out on Stephen Chow's films? Keep going with God of Cookery!
"Forbidden City Cop" too.
Also god of gamblers 1-3
@@XxItsYourBoyChienxX Which one has the bronze monks in it?
@@commanderkruge the ones that were beating Stephen chows ass everytime he showed up?
CJ7 is cute too
This movie was always on repeat growing up and til this day I freaking love it!
Damn we had the same childhood
Can’t ever get bored of watching this gem 😂
literally impossible
9:06 Stephen Chow is a freaking genius! 😁
I totally enjoyed re-living my childhood with you guys. Thanks!
This basically like anime in live action, super powered characters that channel their energy chakra through the ball making it a lethal weapon. It's also amusing how Puma must had endorsed through the movie, like the fire kick by the lead actor towards the enemy goal look like a pouncing Puma!
The guy who plays goalkeeper is the same guy who plays axe gang boss in kungfu hustle movie. He also actually play Bruce lee in 2008's The Legend of Bruce Lee and Ip man movie you guys should check this out!
Ken Wakashimazu style
This movie is a treasure. I saw you guys were discussing connection between this movie (Shaolin Soccer) and Kung Fu hustle. Both movies are directed by Stephen Chow. Both movies are focused on Kung Fu and Stephen Chow's signature comedy.
Many actors from Shaolin Soccer appear in Kung Fu Hustle. However, in Kung Fu hustle, there is a big reference (a nod) to Shaolin Soccer movie. Remember when Stephen Chow's character goes to that small town and kids are playing Soccer? He shows some soccer skills but then stomps on the soccer ball (destroying it) and says "No more soccer".
You guys obviously enjoyed both movies and that is why I would highly recommend watching another Stephen Chow's signature comedy movie The Mermaid. Can't wait to see you guys reacting on that movie.
The female lead here, Zhao Wei, did a pretty good job in Mulan: Rise of a Warrior(2009) as the titular character. It's a gritty war movie.
Edit: Kinda wish people had seen that one instead of the Disney live action one.
Yup, she was good there. Tho I still call her the So Close sister. That movie was also amazing
Zhao Wei is most famous for Returning Pearl Princess. That's a good drama. I watched it at least 10 times already.
@@abinashsau9655 jijji
Shaolin Soccer is the best movie ever made. Kung Fu Hustle was great. But this movie is eons ahead of its time by a margin!! Thanks for the reaction. Had a fun time watching it with y'all!!
best movie ever made?
Steven Chow's funniest movies are the movie he made in early-mid 90s, namely Fight Back to School, Flirting Scholar, Love on Delivery, and From Beijing with Love.
However, these movies were made before Steven Chow tried to go international, so there were many Cantonese/Hong Kong-based joke. I don't know how funny they would be after translation.
Omg! This is my childhood’s top movie all time. The uncle in the show actually the one who takes him to this industry and make him popular. It brings back good memory of mine. Thanks ❤
Me and my mom loved this movie so much, Stephen Chow movies are such a goofy fun time it’s great
Stephen Chow got a lot of inspiration from the Japanese soccer manga/anime Captain Tsubasa for this movie. His character in this movie wearing the the number 10 shirt is a direct reference to Captain Tsubasa where the main character also wears a number 10 shirt. The powerful shot taking the defenders into the goal is a common imaginary in that series too. The whole shots turning into a tiger thing is a 1 to 1 of Captain Tsubasa's style as well (there are lots of animal shots in that manga, not just tiger, but the main rival to the protagonist in Captain Tsubasa uses a Tiger Shot so that's another homage to it). If you are into the whole physics defying and "that's not how you play soccer" thing you should check it out.
So funny thing for years I kept seeing Captain Tsubasas name and not knowing what it was while at the same time remembering a show from my childhood called Super Campeones so imagine to my surprise when I one day realized they were the same thing the latter just being the Spanish dub of Captain Tsubasa I also watched Inazuma 11 because it had similar vibes I remember one kid spamming the hell out of his fire tornado kick
@@DanielGonzalez-vo5ni If I'm not mistaken Captain Tsubasa was very popular around the world back then in countries where football/soccer was huge like in Latin and South American countries, but obviously they changed the names and all that. But it's much less known in English speaking ones because soccer is unpopular in the US which meant by extension the other countries couldn't get dubs of it in English as anime for most English speaking countries are just treated as a subset of the US.
Also the original Inazuma 11 was said to be inspired by Shaolin Soccer, it's very poetic where everything came back full circle.
Captain Tsubasa was popular in India too. Although India isn't a Football loving nation. Infact a lot of old school anime was popular in India back in the day like Doraemon, Pokemon, The jungle book, Kochikame, ShinChan, Ninja Hatori, Daigander, Card Captor Sakura, Ranma 1/2, InuYasha etc. to name a few
Ligit if anyone can direct a live action over the top action anime like one punch man it would be Stephen Chow
Y'all didn't ask but in French, it's called Olive & Tom ^^
i remember watching this in the cinema with my then girlfriend. i was laughing endlessly throught the movie. and after so many years, i've rewatched this movie from time to time and became more amazed by how good the movie is in terms of the storyline, characters etc
More of Stephen Chow please. You're not gonna regret it.
I like how the majority of the cast is speaking Cantonese except for the girl, who's speaking Mandarin. And Steel Leg Sing would be the only one to switch to Mandarin when speaking with her too.
Honestly thought this movie was a fever dream 😂 I remember it being one of my favorite movies as a little kid. This brought back so many memories and it’s still funny as hell
I never got around to watching this movie, but this reaction makes me want to watch it in its entirety. That ending was hilarious!
Freakin love this, remember watching this like many years ago with my brother and our friends we just keeps on laughing the whole time. Then we started doing Stephen Chow marathon
The best times of my childhood/preteen when we my friends and neighbors went to a friend's house watched Shaolin Soccer and we just laughing out loud with tears and after that went to a grass field trying to copy the moves playing around went home buised, eat dinner and sleep peacefully with still a smile on the face.
Omg, I was a highschool student when this film was release. I watch this film from pirated vcd (before DVD era) bought at night market.
Should definitely do:
God of Gamblers
Fight Back to School
Tricky Brains
Love on Delivery
From Beijing with Love
The God of Cookery
So many classics! Stephen Chow is a legend in the Hong Kong industry when it comes to Silly Comedy movies in the late 80s, 90s. No other movies like his 😂🙏💯
Mui the love interest mostly seems to speak Mandarin in this. This is interesting because the rest of the cast speaks Cantonese. The two languages are mutually intelligible, but they make no reference to it.
Danny Chan the one that comes off like Bruce lee, was the leader of the ax gang in Kung Fu Hustle. He also typically does portray Bruce Lee in film. In the last like 15 years he played Bruce Lee maybe five times. He also played Bruce Lee in one of the Ip Man movies
The two languages are not* mutually intelligible
This is originally HongKong movie,
so they speaks Cantonese.
But the girl character are wanderer from outside HongKong (it should refer to China mainland) same as the Shaolin's brother came from.
So its like Chow meet his hometown acquaintance then they speaks their Mandarin language.
@@brandonford5993 lol yeah exactly! Chinese dialects are seldom mutually intelligible, except when you already know both.
There’s so much Stephen filmography to pull from.
I think my favorite is A Chinese Odyssey. Both part 1 and 2. He always infuses his movies with heart. That’s what makes them great. Incredible comedy and an earnest sincerity that often tugs at your heartstrings.
Also don’t miss God of Cookery and From Beijing with Love.
Uncle Tat n Chow are like dynamic duo of comedic genius in HK movies, especially comedy movies. I remember watching their roles as undercover police officers in Fight Back to School series. They were hilarious.
RIP Ng Man Tat aka Uncle Tat.. Stephen Chow created this type of humor.. "Mo Lei Tau" or Nonsense, 3rd wall breaking, reference making comedy :)
Lol. No he didn't. Ever heard of Monty Python? They've been doing it since the 60s and 70s.
@@BJBee i watched Monty, but it's different type of humor
This movie and Kungfu Hustle are my favorite Stephen Chow combo movies.
Too bad and too sad he didn't make such movies anymore. Once many dragon ball fans hoped he direct the DBZ movie.
Journey to the West was directed by stephen chow and it is EXCELLENT. However a lot of jokes don't translate well (eg you think you're freshly peeled radish skin?! YOU THINK I'M VEGETARIAN!? It's hard to explain why that is such a harsh burn)
The journey of the west,the mermaid,the new king of comedy is all his directing Films
@@nikitandy988 for me they are not as legendary as those 2 movies.
I hope he still has passion to make another his great ones
@@nixland yeah u r right 😅
He's working on Kung Fu Hustle sequel
I have watched this movie so many times and i never gotten bored of it. I am so happy that you guys had the chance to react to this classic.
Stephen Chow is someone who that so passionate about making movie (martial art and comedy mainly), that why all asian love his movie growing up.
Shaolin Soccer has heart for a bunch of underdogs that you can cheer to win
The message in this movie is incredible
yes that's how actual kung fu started. by doing chores efficiently.
Actually in the Asia regions, Shaolin Soccer was much well known than Kung Fu Hustle, everywhere, people will be like singing the silly song they perform in the night club.
Stephen Chow is like the comedy king in Asia, 10 out of 9 people would say their favourite comedian growing up watching will be him. Although his older movies, which not directed by him, will be harder to understand to foreigners as the jokes usually will just lost in translation.
I'd recommend try out All's Well, Ends Well (1992), this is one of his best earlier movies with bunch of crazy talented comedians, which the movie still stand as an all time classic even till now.
The harmony of elements in the movie is really well kept, a lot of Hong Kong movies have that balancing feeling, from my experiences in watching them from my childhood till now. I love Chow when he acts in gambling theme movie.
The two women with mustaches on Team Moustache are Cecelia Cheung and Karen Mok, who both co-starred with Stephen in his movie _King of Comedy_ that came out two years before _Shaolin Soccer,_ in case you were wondering what the deal was with those cameos.
The movie itself and your reactions are priceless! Thanks Reel Rejects and Stephen Chow! 😀🤣🤣
I personally like Stephen Chow's earlier works, those in 80s and 90s. Not sure if you can find them but if you do, you should check them out. A Chinese Odyssey, which are two part movies, are one of my top recommendation. I am from Hong Kong btw.
If you haven't seen anything of the 3 Stooges, you need to! Still one of the best comedy groups to this day!
I remember being a kid and my mother rented this and she was so excited to watch it with me because she just knew it was something I’d like
these movies are such classics! i dont know what steven chow is doing lately, but he should totaly either direct the new last airbender or and mcu movie like the next chang shi or something... we need a stevenchownissance
This movie was one of the childhood favourites even in India! 😅❤️
Stephen Chow's movies are so great
From 90's to 00's, that was the best moment of Hong Kong Movie. Stephen Chow is definitely one of the symbol for the Hong Kong movies in that period. There are many factors for his success, which can't happen any more in Hong Kong now...
ShaolinSoccer and Kung Fu hustle are very "mature" movies from Stephen Chow for the whole world. If you guys are interested in how Stephen Chow had stepped up in his career, you should watch his movies in 90's, more primitive, no CGI, well but maybe quite localized ...
"From Beijing with love" can be the starting point, which is my favorite.
Such a trip down the memory lane for me... RIP達叔
This is such an obscure movie I absolutely love watching it. I replayed that last soccer scene like 5 times back to back bec of how just absurd it is
Best part of the reaction: Cat coming for some love!
This movie is so funny, mixing ridiculous (in a good way), awesomeness and heart all in one great funny movie. Loved it when it came out.
This is truly EPIC! Soooo glad you watched this! There's a few more movies of this type out there. And the actress with acne is lovely in real life! Zhao Wei😍🥰
Truly a classic along with kung fu hustle
Ooh nice to see you react of my favourite childhood movies
In Kung Fu or martial arts whatever it's called, Yin Yang is the art of deflection and/or dissipation of kinetic force which made her the perfect goal keeper. The same skills she used when making steam buns and also demonstrated very well when her mean boss tried to hit her but couldn't 🙂
One of my all time favorite Movies!
My childhood movie. I saw this in early 2000s, it was just a blast!
If ya'll gonna watch another Stephen Chow movie, I highly recommend "God of Cookery"! Some days, I will just remember a random scene from that movie and involuntarily chuckle to myself, and not be able to explain to the other people in the conference room wtf i find so funny about Janet's powerpoint or whatever.
I just realized Mui blocking her boss's attack was a matrix reference .
This was one of my favorite movies as a kid - rewatchability on a 💯
Was waiting for this movie reaction after watching kung fu hustle reaction
Remember the scene after the ax gang introduction? The one with the soccer ball in Kung Fu Hustle?
This film is hilarious. Remember watching it as a kid!! Still is funny!
FINALLY! I've been waiting for this ever since your kung fu hustle reactions
And pretty much this movie brought back almost every actor and actress Chow has worked with in his has comedies. God of Cookery, King of Comedy, Forbidden City Cop, Tricky Brains, Chinese Odyssey 1 and 2, From Beijing With Love and so much more! Love this movie!
For some reason I used to cringe at Kung Fu Hustle but I just so LOVED Shaolin Soccer. It’s so iconic. This movie along is what got me hooked on Japanese and Chinese animes, shows and kung fu style in general. For quite a long time I had a crush on goal keeper cause he looked like Bruce Lee.
The goal keeper later on played Bruce Lee in his own tv-show and Bruce Lee in Ip Man 3 & 4, which starred Donnie Yen. The guy has aged extremely well.
the goalkeeper played the axe gang boss in kung fu hustle. He just didn't keep up the tan haha
Danny Chan Kwok-Kwan is his name.
I love this movie 😂 I remember hoping there's a sequel vdjshshdhd
I loved this movie as a youth. Back in the torrent days lol
28:40 The Puma sponser guy is a real life Puma shop owner. Even the ppl was a masterpiece in this movie.
Funny thing is that in Hong Kong, KUNG FU HUSTLE is actually not that popular or iconic compared to other Stephen Chow's movies. A lot of his movies are iconic here, we can recall lines from them. Kung Fu Hustle is not one of them. It is popular, just no way near as popular as his other movies.
Yah i like this one than kungfu hustle
Kung Fu Hustle's cinematography is more polished compared to Shaolin Soccer. But Shaolin Soccer's story, characters, theme, lessons, comedy, stakes, etc. are much more superior than Kung Fu Hustle's
So fun to see you guys react the same way I did, and still do, whenever I watch this.
This really make my day
I just watched the MLS Cup final between LA and Philly - it was a 3-3 thriller that went to penalties.
One of Philly's penalties was exactly like the one seen on 2:00 - blazed way over the bar ... proving just how realistic this movie is
It started out as a great video and then the cat showed up and it became an outstanding video 😊
38:39 That scene is right out Captain Tsubasa. It's called the Miracle Drive Shot. Obviously for the movie would be called Miracle Overhead Drive shot
Great watch. I love Stephen Chow movies!
one of my fav childhood movies alongside Kung Fu Hustle, can’t wait to see your reactions 😊😊
Kung Fu Hustle and Shaolin Soccer are absolute classics! I can watch these movies every year at least once and never get tired!
You guys are awesome, Great Reaction
By god names i cant remember how many time i'v watched this film. And it still over the top as ever. ALL HAIL STEPHEN CHOW!!!!
Growing up watching this movie made us love Stephen chow's movie
Shaolin soccer is one movie , I can watch unlimited number of times similar like back to the future, u just can't get bored!
Now just need to do God of Cookery! (My favorite Stphen Chow movie)
This was like my childhood movie every single Chinese New Year, its like a tradition to watch this/Stephen Chow every year during Chinese new year
This was one of fav movies as a kid. Such a classic!
This and Sholing hustle are 2 of my fav movies
Everyone recommended God of Cookery already so I will recommended Fight Back To School, the movie talk about undercover cops and its also have 2 sequel which are hilarious too ^^ I'm really glad that people are more aware of genius Stephen Chow now, he has been a hugee star in Asia and we all fell in love with his movie ❤️❤️
You guys reaction is awesome.😂😂😂
One of my all time favs
No matter what my childhood grow watching this movie.😊
This is an ALL TIME CLASSIC and everyone needs to see it!
This is one of my favorite movies because of how wacky and funny it is!
I would also like to recommend the anime "Inazuma Eleven" to anyone who enjoyed this movie. It's a soccer anime that have the people in its world to be able to use special moves/superpowers. It's basically a more serious version of this movie, but is still pretty fun.
Flipping love this movie! This and Kung fu hustle. Chef's kiss🤗
I remember watching this one years ago and It was so good reminded me of the anime Captain Tsubasa “ (“los súper Campeones” in Mexico) both great ones. Thank you for the video 🎉❤
One of my all time favs😂
I really love watching you guys enjoying and having so much fun with one of my favourite wholesome + creative + comedy movies.
You two clearly have different humour. some scenes trigger Greg more, some scenes trigger Aaron more. so something for everyone :D humour equality
also very glad you watched the original version from Miramax.
I recommend: God of Cookery, Love on Delivery, From Beijing with Love, and Forbidden City Cop. Those are his older movies but have similar vibes with Shaolin Soccer
I loved your genuine laughs 😂💛🙏this is one of my favorite movies 😂
Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle are still to this day one of the funniest and awesome movies ever. Shaolin Soccer was the first Stephen Chow film I saw so in my opinion I consider it slightly better than Kung Fu Hustle. Two timeless classics. Gives off anime vibes with the fight scenes which has always been badass.
If you guy are planning to watch more of Stephen Chow movie, this is a few of my recommendation. Most of the recommended film is comedy.
Royal Tramp 1 & 2 - a comedy version of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Fight Back to School - a special squad got sent to school to undercover.
King of Beggars - a serious version of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. You see how he learn kung fu.
Flirting Scholar - a playboy find true love.
Chinese Odyssey part 1 & 2 - it is based on the character that inspire son goku.
