Movie review - Kung Fu Hustle

....Conversation with self (no, not that one, the OTHER one)......

Wife and kids at in-laws? Check
Gym closed? Check
After work festivities finished? Check

What now? Hey, I know, what about a movie? Are you kidding, theres stuff all on at the moment. I heard that "Kung Fu Hustle" got some good reviews. Why not? Nothing else going. We're off.

.....2 hours later.....

Holy shit, that was cool!! I would best describe Kung Fu Hustle as a cross between Monty Python meets Crouching Tiger (without the Dragon). This kung fu comedy will have you rolling in the aisles. If you like Kung Pow (and let's face it, who didn't) this movie will tickle more than just your funny bone. From the ridiculous to the sublime, the movie covers all the bases and has parodies aplenty ranging from Spiderman to Road Runner to "So, I married an axe murderer".

Final rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars

You're just a big kid at heart krayy (I know the story behind your nickname) !

I might have to go and see this Kung Fu Hustle sometime, especially after that review. I usually rate movies out of 10, but I see that you use increments of 0.5 adding up to 5 so in essence 10 points - excellent! 4.5 is high, let's just hope you have good taste in movies, lol.

I've seen the trailers and have heard it's pretty good. Top of the 'movie's to see next list'.

You guys have got to watch Dust to Glory. It's a documentary/movie about the Baja 1000. One of my fave movies of all time. It's directed by the son of the guy who directed On Any Sunday (classic motorcycle film). Both are a must see.
