- When the hapless Sing and his dim-witted pal Bone try to scam the residents of Pig Sty Alley into thinking they're members of the dreaded Axe Gang, the real gangsters descend on this Shanghai slum to restore their fearsome reputation. What gang leader Brother Sum doesn't know is that three legendary retired kung fu masters live anonymously in this decrepit neighborhood and don't take kindly to interlopers.

This one came out in 2004. Twenty years old and still one of the best comedies!
And one of, if not *THE* best representation of Anime type fighting/action in a live action movie ever.
@@James-iu2km alita is pretty good as well, if you ask me also one of the best manga/anime to live action adaptations
@@James-iu2km I was going to say this exact thing. Hits all the sweet spots of what we love about anime fights.
fun fact Stephen Chow announced he is finally working on the script for a sequel film. might not be tied to the original cast, but the premise set up by the homeless guy with his "kung fu manuals" and that little kid.
Second movie is coming came out this or I think next year not sure
The 'no more soccer!' scene is a throwback to his preceding film, 'Shaolin Soccer'.
another good film
Yep it's answer for people who kept asking for Shaolin Soccer 2😂
Bro went from “I’m not gonna laugh at all” to laughing his ass off 😂😂😂 gotta love it.
Now "Shaolin Soccer" is a must!!
Came to the comments to make sure this was said. When she appeared in the car, her warning was taken straight from a bruce lee movie
Journey to the West is even a better movie.
Oh my, this is gonna be gooooood. The answer to every "why" question you will have (because y'all almost always start your sentences with why? haha just playin')is "Because it's a kung-fu movie." They're having fun with stereotypes and tropes that are found in old kung-fu flicks (and a lot of other media), and just greatly overdramatizing things for comedy. Love it!
This is the *BEST* "live action Anime" *_EVER!!!_* This is how the "Dragon Ball" live action movie *SHOULD* have been done.
Did you know Steven Chow wanted to make a Dragonball movie, but he was turned down? Instead way got Dragonball Evolution 😃
@@SpidermanandhisAmazingFriendsthat hurts my feelings. + we don’t talk about Dragonball (spelled wrong because America) Evolution, it is a disaster piece 😂
Nah this is a great movie but RRR is the best live action anime now
@@popejaimie RRR is worst movie
Guys, Welcome to KUNG FU HUSTLE!! The answer to a lot of your questions are layered within a plethora of Easter Eggs and movie references including but not limited to: Dragon Ball Z, Road Runner, Bugs Bunny, The Big Green Catterpillar, Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, Fu Manchu, The Monkey King, Wong Fei Hung, Zu Warriors and The Five Deadly Venoms.
Two important notes:
1. The Football squash was a reference to Stephen Chow's previous movie Shaolin Soccer. It was a message to fans that there would be no sequel to that movie despite its record breaking success.
2. The action choreography was directed by Grandmaster Yuen Woo Ping, who is famous for designing the action scenes for The Matrix, Kill Bill, The Drunken Master, Fist Of Legend and many others.
Also when Donut is dying he says in English "WHAT ARE YOU PREPARED TO DO!" as a throwback to The Untouchables movie where Sean Connerys charcter dies and he asked Eliot Ness that question meaning he has to be prepared to go beyond his limits in order to deal with Al Capone.
@@Xantheus07 I never knew that, thank you!!
and The Return of The Condor Heroes too (yang guo and xiao long nu scene at the casino before they fight the beast)...
THE AXE DANCE IS MY JAM…The “shaking” scene kills me every time LOL XD dude was SCARED lol
The beggar looking man that met the actor when he was young is not an ordinary person. He is actually a sage who moves around looking for natural born talents of kung fu. So he charged that amount to see if the child has a heart of sacrifice and determination. Just subscribed to your channel. The next one you should react to is shaolin soccer. It is quite awesome and produced by the same Stephen Chow. Hillarious till this day 😂
This is the story of a man, destined by the heaven to be a hero. No matter how desperate he was to revert to crime, prevented by divine intervention, somehow he just couldn't do any crime even though he wanted to. In a lot of chinese story there are many stories like this, usually a deva or buddha disciple, he got punished and reborn as a human with no memory, who has to suffer and remember his true self and why he got punished, and only after he repent and realized why he was punished, he can claim his power back. Stephen Chow did a similar story in God of Cookery, but this time he removed the 'obvious' heaven part. The main character here has to remember his destiny (to be a hero) and only then the god would 'return' his power. And the part at the end where he as if returned to being a kid is a symbol of him returning to heaven and reclaimed his godhood.
Stephen Chow (Sing) is a LEGEND💯💯💯
Sing = crazy
The most obvious suggestion off of this is Shaolin Soccer, which was made by the same people and even has a good chunk of the cast from Kung Fu Hustle
I love this movie. I had no idea what to expect and then it was just all over the place. It’s like Looney Tunes but then turns into this amazing cinematic and story. Such a unique mix of humor, action, and storytelling and just so foreign to western cinema, especially when it was made. So good
"Why this movie got deep out of nowhere", I think this is the correct statement about Stephen Chow film style or humor, He said by himself. Others call him comedy king, but he doesn't understand that, all his life he has filming in more tragedies story than comedy, his classic films of the 90s Always like that, There are two typical movies about this: "King of Comedy" and "A Chinese Odyssey" they are sad and sad, But we keep laughing when we watch it as a kid, we thought is ridiculous , until we grow up and think about it We cry, we finally understand.
Not Mair Fallin out the chair and Sophie with the 2nd hand embarrassment 😂😂😂
Huge props for going with the subtitles.
I personally prefer the dubbed version because its so bad it makes it funnier to me.
@@loang3991 you're a madman
Totally agree!
The overdub version is a whole nother layer of comedy! I like it better tbh.
Stephen Chow is one of my favorite Hong Kong actor and filmmaker. Chow, Jackie, Sammo Hung, Uncle Tat (RIP), and Jet Li are my favorite Chinese actors growing up.
this movie is sooo timeless in its effects because the movie itself is soo ridiculous it just works. Everything it done purposely oulandish and perfectly shot its amazing no matter how old it is.
Still one of my fav movies ever!
FUN FACT: the lead in this movie is also the director, Stephen Chow is amazing!
Easily one of my top 5 favorites of all time,such a gem ❤️
I love when movies are equal homage and satire (Kung Fu Hustle, Cabin in the Woods, and Hot Fuzz off the top my head). So for this movie, it was partially making fun of some of the stuff in kung fu movie, all while being a really good kung fu movie. Cabin in the Woods makes fun of horror movies while being an excellent horror movie. And I think Hot Fuzz does the same with action/thriller/buddy cop films. There should be a word of it.
The ending showing the star and the lady as children is to show their original kindness and innocent love .. their inner characters .. since the day they met.
I loved this movie so much as a teenager that I even bought it for the PSP on UMD disc.
Just imagine watching this in the mid 2000s on a 4.3 inch screen with 272p resolution...with 3 other friends tryna lean in to see. It was a technical marvel to me at the time so I almost preferred it to DVD just for the novelty. Plus you could watch it on the bus and in the cafeteria! I swear that handheld made me more popular in high school. Simpler times lol
Mair said he’s not going to laugh.. yaaa right lol
Still one of my favorite movies of all time. So brilliantly done, such hilarious characters.
Just finished and this is one of the best reactions to this movie. You can tell that yall thoroughly enjoyed watching this.
This movie is one of the few my whole family could watch a few times and the laughs where everywhere. Im not sure how we first got to it, but then we got it in digital and saw it a few more times. Its just very well done.
Love this movie. Starring and directed by Stephen Chow. It's definitely suppose to be a goofy and over the top but the story n action in his movies are good. Guess yall watching Shaolin Soccer next 😂
I LOVE KUNG FU HUSTLE
I cry everytime i see the lollipop scene and I love that Lion power
one detail I've always likes was when Sing becomes The One, toe-stomping is an integral part of his arsenal, even though The Beast calls it "kids' stuff". but think about it; Sing was a kid when he taught himself kung fu from that manual, so now he fights like the hero he dreamed of becoming as a child
and not even The Beast is immune to the Toe Crusher >:D
You know it’s funny when Mair’s laugh turns into a coughing fit😂
I'm glad you guys had a fun time with this 😂 My dad first showed this to me when I was like 7, and it's still the most fun movie I've ever watched. Stephen Chow is great at mixing intensity with comedy!
Thank you thank you thank you. This is one of my favorite movies, and the two of you just gave the best reaction I've ever seen. 😅
Easily one of my favorite reactions to my favorite movie! I thoroughly enjoyed watching your initial skepticism evaporate as the movie unfolded. Thank you for the great content! It was almost as fun as the first time I watched the movie 20 years ago.
Love. Love. Love this film. I can't believe it's 20 yrs old. Your reaction to this movie was one of the best I have ever seen. So much fun. Your laughs are contagious. And editing on point. Thank you. Keep it up.
You can tell these two were just born...They never seen classic Kung Fu films in mid 70's and 80's
I'm so happy you guys watched this! It's one of my all time favorite movies.
One of the best movies of all time. Ive watch this film countless times and its still and will always be my favorite ever
This is a favorite of mine. Hilarious. Btw, they're doing the Hustle. The Kung Fu Hustle.
35:00 - my man about to nope right outta there.
I love this movie.
The "what are you prepared to do??" line spoken in English is a line from the movie The Untouchables, starring Sean Connery and Kevin Costner. A fun and really random reference.
I can't wait for the flabbergasted cackles/giggles. Hopefully.
You should watch Shaolin Soccer (2001) next. Since you enjoyed this one.
Shaolin Soccer (2001) is also brilliantly
Directed, Produced, Written, and Acted as main character by the legendary Stephen Chow himself. Same as Kung Fu Hustle (2004).
Please get the original cantonese language version, hong kong version.
That's means preferably not the Americanized version (which is also cantonese spoken, but they edit the chinese characters by overlaying with english text, dubbed over the original sound effects, changed some music to english music, and simplified the english subtitles). WORST of all, they cut down 22 minutes of the original movie length (original 102 minutes to 80 minutes americanized version)
Stephen Chow made both films emphasizing for the international audience in mind. It is his first big break into western market. He is already very famous and well known in Hong Kong, south-east asia, Asia in general. We love his unique style and humour.
By the way, Stephon Chow announced to the public that he has finished the story draft for Shaolin Women's Soccer. He is auditioning for female actresses and we are finally getting another Stephen Chow directed movie (which is very, very rare nowadays), which is also a sequel to Shaolin Soccer (2001), after 22 years.
To me this is like a live action loony tunes cartoon mixed with kung fu, comedy and action. It’s one of my favorite movies. It’s so different and awesome…
It came out in 2004. I was a kid, living in a group home when the staff took us to see it. It is still one of the greatest comedies of all time 😅
The husband/landlord is in Shang Chi. He’s one of the elders in the hidden village
-what are you... prepayu... to do?!
-why you dont speak chinese?!
Donut literally spoke english while entire film is in chinese and no one gets it haha
"sometimes we don't find everything funny and sometimes we don't understand why the joke was even made"
15:46 literally one of the most sad moments of the movie and both were laughing, just like the entire thing lmao. Those movies are so damn good, nice reaction.
This isn't a spoof on anime, this is a direct dramatization of old Wuxia movies.
First time watching you guys. Absolutely loved your reaction. Such a good movie too. Subscribed
One of my favorite movies from my youth. 😂🥰
Still so whacky and wild. I love it.
I love that you are surprised and laughed, because that is what should happen when watching this movie for the first time 👍
I love u guys.. You're reaction is priceless❤❤btw im new to this channel.. Keep up the good work
6:04 "imma try not to laugh" we got Mair good at this scene
Kungfu hustle and shaolin soccer are literally the closest movies we got to a live anime imo. Action, comedy, and romance, cant complain lol.
This is probably in my top ten. It's so fun and touching at the same time
Sophie just about had it with Mair when he fell out his chair! She said, “Re-LAX!” 😂😂
This is to Kung Fu movies as 'Scary Movie' is to Scary Movies. It takes all of the classic tropes of old kung fu movies and turns them up to 11/10.
this is a masterpiece.
If I could subscribe twice. Simply the best and most genuine reaction video I have ever seen. …you two were much funnier than the extremely funny movie. Encore.
basically a live action anime. its possibly the best kung fu movie.
I wouldnt say "The Best", however it is one of a kind. Only Quentin Tarantino has been able to reinterpret so many homages to movies this well.
@@bruceleeds7988 i mean if the raid counts then I would give it to the raid, but idk if it does.
This movie came out 20 years ago! Even after 20 years,it’s still hilarious. One of the best.
One of my favorite movies of all time :) thanks for checking it out
Beast hit so hard he knocked you out of the chair.
One of my favs and yes A Great Film glad you two enjoyed it.
The dancing is their symbolic rise to power.
I LOVE watching people discover this looney toon kung fu journey with a heart. great reaction guys!
I love it when that guy was out there slapping everyone with a pool noodle
One of my favorite movies and your reactions were great!
This is my 1st reaction to you guys, saw xiaolin soccer but wanted follow chronologically lol, and Sophie is so quick to pick stuff up and so is Mair but just love you guys pick up the "subtle" details other reactors miss or take forever to realize.
When the beast first sits down and fires the gun, then stops the bullet...he explains that SPEED determines the winner. So when he is fighting the fated lovers, he is shown punching far faster then the husband to show he outclasses the couple, then when The One is fighting the beast - he is faster then The Beast...superiority by the same measure.
The Descending Palm from Heaven is explained by the couple while The One is up in the Sky meeting Buddha - a direct manifestation and divine message. Such a great movie.
Some movies you just have fun with, you don't question everything......different styles of movies tell different types of stories, have fun......glad to see you guys loosened up early on and caught on to the humor.
@28:00ish.... I've seen this flix a million times and Mair & Sophie's reaction got me laughing out loud!!! Great reaction you guys! =X-D
Excited for you to watch this. It's such a fun movie.
That was them remembering each other from childhood before he tried to become a gangster when he got beaten up from the bullies
Congratulations Sophie and mair, 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love both of your reactions. It really is a good movie. A comedy movie with a deep topic. ❤
This is a legend of a movie. In my top 5 all time.
Shaolin Soccer should be next, it is also funny.
BRO was like I’m not even going to let myself laugh.. As soon as I heard that I was like… NOO YOU WILL.. YOU WILL LAUGH
Don’t feel bad. I fell out watching a certain scene in Borat. Off the bed, literally rolling on the floor laughing.
My first time watching this was a year ago and I freakn loved it
Yeah this was one of my favorite movies because it had everything . The Story creator, Director , and star of the movie is Stephen Chow takes ideas of early American cinema from the 50s and mix it with Kung Fu . The man is a genius
I think the word you're looking for to describe the movie is "camp" 😂
If you think "live action anime" while watching, you appreciate the film much more.
Love your reaction it was the best 😂😂😂
Stephen Chow is the brilliant director of this film, and also it's star actor. It's a very well constructed film and really took the old kung fu movie formula and took it to the next level. But cinematically it is stylish, great special effects (even the Looney Tunes moves) and great use of visuals and symbolism to add dimension to the story and underlying meanings, like the main character cocooning in his wrapped bandages as he transformed into his higher more powerful self. I knew this film was deep when the landlady blew the musician-assassins away and the landlord drew a Yin-Yang ☯ symbol in the ground with their feet when he swung them around at 26:24 into the video. (From Chinese philosophy, Yin-Yang symbol represents duality, such as female-male, dark-light, heaven-Earth, as an indivisible whole. So the landlady & landlord are depicted as extremely powerful personifications of these universal opposing energies that when united can become greater than the sum of their parts.)
Frog man? Pervy Toad Sage. 😂
The landlady was in a James Bond film when she was younger. She played one of two schoolgirls who protected Bond in "The Man With The Golden Gun" when he escaped the martial arts studio. ua-cam.com/video/CswyGUZR3Ew/v-deo.html
When he fell on the window and landlady grabbed her husband by the hair, it looked like they genuinely fought for real. That looked genuinely violent lmao
Once the tall dude stood up, I think you two really dialed into what was going on. This is one of my favorite movies. Steven Chow wrote, directed, and starred in the movie. He's gone on to be arguably the most successful director in Chinese history.
If you want a serious action movie that is also excellent, try "Hero" starring Jet Li.
They shouldn’t watch Fearless starring Jet Li.. and then Hero.
It was like watching two people to whom the concept of an imagination was a revelation.
The first rule of Stephen Chow movies: don't go into it expecting anything too serious!
Over the years he has proven to be an excellent comedic filmmaker, as well as a top-notch storyteller, especially with his ability to almost seamlessly weave even comedic characters into otherwise romantic and/or serious narratives.
As far as what to see next (assuming you two plan on exploring his movies), everyone is recommending 'Shaolin Soccer' - and _it is easily one of his best_ - I'm going to recommend 'The God of Cookery' instead. He has an excellent back catalogue either way! 🤣
Everything about this film was perfect.
love this movie in my top 25 all time and I've watched aa lot
Bro wished he had watched this alone, he loved every second of it but had to hold back cause his lady was there
I'd always thought of this movie as a live-action Looney Tunes, but y'all are right: it's a live-action anime!
This and Shaolin Soccer are some of the funniest movies of early 2000. 😂
This movie is so great. It's truly amazing. And your reactions made it a lot of fun to go through again.
Stephen Chow is a genius, you guys need to watch Shaolin Soccer!!
Yup, you got that right! This is one of the greatest legendary comedy live action movies of all time! Stephen Chow is a genius out of his time!!
