Click
here to check out the Kung Fu Hustle [DVD] That is the only word that can describe what we see on screen. Effects that really are special. New ground is indeed broken with every fight and it all looks and feels very fresh. It raises the bar for all future comic book style action scenes. The emotional quotient is higher than you would expect from a brazen comedy such as this and the main characters are all three dimensional with a certain depth. A particular scene where the lead is remembering his childhood has particular resonance and is quite stark. We learn how a naïve child became a cynical opportunist. His childhood sweetheart, Fong (played by Huang Sheng Yi) who is mute steals very scene she’s in. She exudes emotion by facial expression alone and will yank your emotional heartstrings. I loved this film to bits and you’ll thoroughly enjoy it too. It contains strong, slapstick violence. Kung Fu Hustle will be released as a Region 1 DVD (American import) on 9th August by Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. It will have a Region 2 DVD (U.K.) release shortly afterwards on a date to be confirmed. See more about this film here. Running time: 99 mins, Certificate: 15
