Shaolin Soccer | Classification: Comedy Directed: - Stephen Chow Actors/Actresses: - Stephen Chow - Vicki Zhao - Yut Fei Wong Stephen Chow The King of Comedy Terrific! I saw this movie 2 times and I really think is a GREAT movie... you have a lot of fun but also some dramatic moment... well, drama is in Stephen's way, so you can imagine... To really appreciate this movie you have to watch it in chinese; anyway, you can't watch a Stephen Chow's film in any other language or you will miss the best! The movie is also filled with cool special effects... totally worth the money! And no wonder that for this movie Stephen won for Best Director, Best Actor and Outstanding Young Director at the 21st Annual Hong Kong Film Awards. Stephen Chow is so hot! Funniest movie of the last decade! If you like Mangas, The Matrix, Crouching Tiger, Austin Powers humor, then you'll definitely need to watch this movie. It reminded me of old comedy movies, where the simplest things, if put in the right place will make you laugh till you cry.<BR>The plot is quite simple, a bunch of shaolin masters who got lousy jobs since their master died, will team back again to win a soccer grand prize of 1,000,000$, and each one of them has his own "Super Power". The best part is when they start facing stronger and stronger opponents; you get the best showdown ever in martial arts and special effects.<BR>Long story short, go and watch it, you won't regret it. grreaat This movie is funnay!It employs some great martial arts techniques and kool computer effects. It begins with a group of former Shaolin monks that have chosen to embark on different ways of life. They reunite through one student that is down on his luck poor, but still positive. Another man was once a soccer legend and loses that prestige through an injury. He takes abuse from the coach. He then meets the former shaolin monk and they decide to form a soccer team. <BR> It sums up the sense of honor and respect that the martial arts emanate. It does this lightly and humorously. The part in which stephen chow and his other monk brethren dress up and sing and dance...very funny. I nearly choaked on my popcorn and collapsed on the floor of my room laughing. It has the contrast of the basic yin and yang of evil, hence the "evil team"(a bad soccer team that the shaolin monks must compete against)It brings the martial arts timeless ideals of honor into the 21rst century, With style and substance.
