KUNG FU HUSTLE (2004) TWIN BROTHERS FIRST TIME WATCHING MOVIE REACTION! 

She was also in one of the older Bond films. Man With The Golden Gun, iirc. She wasn't a Bond Girl per se, I think she was one of the schoolgirl characters Bond asks info on the area. At least, her character was dressed liked a schoolgirl.

oh shit really? that's awesome.

This is one of my favourite movies and I did not know that. Thanks. That's a really cool fact.

Yeah! she had actually retred from acting. Kung Fu Hustle was her first role in nineteen years. Only did it because of Stephen!

Isn't the director Stephen Chow himself?

Except for the boss of Axe Gang 😂

@@thomashan4963 and the Masters who were killed

@@Kragar01 The original comment said “This movie does not kill the bad dudes in the end.” That Axe Gang’s boss got his head twisted 😂

@@thomashan4963 he was killed by the beast, not the good guys…. So what’s your point?

@@Retrovorious The original comment meant “This movie does not kill the bad dudes in the end.”

Thats a really interesting idea, where can i learn more?

Yup. It's known as the "cultivation trope". If you think about it, entire manga series are based around a character working on their abilities.

And was used (seperately conceived from or inspired by the Chinese tradition, I don't know) by Tolkein in the Middle-Earth works. He describes elvish 'magic' as simply their ability to craft/create at an incredibly high level. Thought given form - simple, quick and seemingly effortless.

thumbs up, the idea is quite align with mine

That's what makes this culture of entertainment so interesting, imo.

To be clear for readers... this is Chinese fantasy derived from mythology. Chinese martial artists obviously don't have nor believe they have magical powers. Also, since some people really don't get it: martial arts are the arts of war. They are combat arts. They are the skills by which one fights in combat. This sounds obvious, but people have very woo-ey nonsensical ideas of what martial arts are sometimes, which are exacerbated by a variety of factors. There also clearly isn't a distinction between 2 and 3 in this film. The beast is just stronger than the couple. In Chinese fantasy, it is incredibly common for various non-weapon tools to be used as weapons. These are often objects of some kind of cultural or spiritual significance in Chinese culture. The instrument guys are using a form of zither. The idea would be something like they are attaching their qi to the sound produced by the zither to act as attacks.

Was it (is it) underrated? No idea why you would think that. It was a big success right from the start and is highly regarded today.

It's underrated wtf maan it's know all over the world and I don't think there is a single person born in 90's ever missed this movie 😂🙏

The gathering clouds could be seen as a multicultural joke, gathering clouds is a visual shorthand for foreboding, in the west. Its not a thing in the east so the land lady saying take your laundry in its going to rain is pretty funny

You say that based on what? 🙄 It was hugely successful in Asia and very successful everywhere else

@@BJBee Hollywood I feel has a conspiracy to keep non English films or non European films from getting into the USA, until years after it has become famous abroad.

According to Stephen Chow, the pigsty was set up like the place he grew up in.

What about the other 5 techniques that the wandering master offered to the kid?

​@@onekill31 哈哈哈哈 很惊讶有人会在意这么细节的东西 另外五个武功秘籍里面有四个都是金庸小说里面很有名的武功 非常有名 几乎任何所有中国人都知道。 第一本书的武功我也不认识 据说是1960年代的电影里面的武功。 这个乞丐就是骗子。 因为这么厉害的武功秘籍就像游戏里的最高等级装备一样 不可能这么便宜价格获取的。 主角能学会如来神掌 可能只是因为他是万中无一的天才 和 神的旨意

He cultivated that qi like a mofo

That guy was the lead actor in the movie Wrath of Vajra...very action packed martial art flick.

not to mention that, the three guys, coolie, tailor, donut are the real martial artists in real life.

^This . live action anime is correct. I think the Shang-Chi movie did a good job looking like a dragonball z fight at the end. So it's possible to do right.

Stephen Chow produced DragonBall Evolution and we all know how that turned out. Let's leave anime as animation

its not underrated, every asian know this movie.

That is the great Yuen wah! The only guy to double Bruce Lee since he was a crazy acrobat back in his day and had the same build as Bruce lee

@@ninjavigilante5311 I think after Bruce died, Yuen Biao was also used as a double to finish some of his scenes.

@@jp3813 yeah 4 game of death I believe

One of the worst movies ever made.

Those were not the '*original' voices. the film was made in Cantonese. You saw a Mandarin dub.

Or as we say in China..." Peng Pong." Still have it on dvd. Classic.

I wouldn't say huge, but it made some good money, along with some awards, here when it was released in 2005.

That's a fucking solid metaphor, I never thought of it like that but that's perfect!

@@OctoKrool yea I actually didn't start thinking that till like the third time. I honestly actually got that idea from anime because a few of the more brutal action ones had done something like that.
