About this product

Product Information

Hong Kong satirist Stephen Chow wrote, directed, and stars in this hilarious spoof of sports and kung fu movie cliches. Chow plays "Mighty Steel Leg" Sing, who can kick soda cans through walls, and is a natural soccer star in the eyes of crippled coach Fung (Patrick Se Yin), who is looking to challenge his arch rival Hung, the captain of the aptly named Evil Team. Recruiting Sing and his goofy brothers who all have names like Steel Head, Hook Kick Leg, and Weight Vest (with qualities to match), Hung's team soon rises through the ranks via their supernatural Kung Fu soccer skills. There's also a love interest in the form of a shy girl (Vicki Zhao Wei) who uses martial arts magic in making steamed bread. MATRIX-style digital effects elevate the actor's martial arts skills to ludicrous heights, giving the clichéd story such a giddy, high-octane boost it soars into a comic class by itself. Soccer balls ripple through the air like slo-mo bullets, smashing through walls, and flying thousands of feet in the air. A box office smash in the East, SHAOLIN SOCCER should prove irresistible to open-minded Westerners looking for a laugh-out-loud experience.

This movie is ridiculously funny
Stephen Chow did an amazing job of creating a story involving real characters in not so real, but agreeable situations. He has given each character a personality of its own; just to create comedy, with a humor that is sometimes honest and others rough. It has some great comedy moments although, coming from the characters, very peculiar ones. It basically all comes from the characters. You have different persons, united by one thing: Shaolin Kung-Fu. And then you have one man, with one passion: Soccer. This premise helps to create human emotions in the characters. They all have a past that, for some reason, want to forget. Except one of them, who could be living in the past, and still thinks in the goodness of Shaolin Kung-Fu. He believes in it so much, that he gives speeches to people ... Stephen Chow did an amazing job of creating a story involving real characters in not so real, but agreeable situations.

They all have a past that, for some reason, want to forget. Except one of them, who could be living in the past, and still thinks in the goodness of Shaolin Kung-Fu. He believes in it so much, that he gives speeches to people about the qualities of his culture, and the improvement it could do in society. He is right, and sooner or later, she will remind these things to some people, and they will all remember. They will all be prepared to get together again. What a good-hearted film this is, and how it is filmed, it's beyond imagination. You will find special effects from other world. In occasions, these will seem slow for you, and you will think they are not well managed or handled; but then you will watch. Watching will make you connect all the elements of the story, to make it one. In elements I include special effects, and say again: they couldn't be done better, especially in a movie like this one. The entire cast did a wonderful job in their roles by giving their characters the personal development they need. They are not playing the most complex people in the world, but they still know what characters they're playing. Some of the scenes, such as the first time we see Mui making bread, are absolute genius; so funny that you can't help but to laugh. I felt Mui seemed like she should have been in more of the film, and I've read that a lot of her part got cut out of the American release, which is a shame. A number of people are saying the original is vastly superior to the edited U.S. version, but this version is so great that I would be mightily impressed if that were true. The idea of this movie is ingenious, using the style of extravagant martial arts films in a soccer movie, and is done beautifully. You will probably find something you've seen before, I can't deny that. You will find the ending you expect, the situations you imagine, the resolutions you anticipate, or not. You'll have the old coach, the person with the dreams and the heart, the girl; it's just that you'll have them differently (you'll realize what I mean). This is another type of cliché, a very different one, so different that I would say it is not a cliché at all.

Fun movie even if you can't understand it
Although we first caught the last half of "Shaolin Soccer" on TV, dubbed in Spanish (no hablamos), it was obvious that this video belonged in our meager collection. We were not disappointed. It is a deep insightful treatment of the universalities of the human condition. The presentation of the struggles of the lead characters to overcome physical limitations and class and gender discrimination shines out like a shaft of gold when all around is darkness. This video speaks to the collective sympathy, tenderness and courage to which we all aspire. The one miscalculation on the director's part (which prevented an "Excellent" rating) was the thin characterizations of the obligatory adversarial "bad guys". Real bad guys have feelings and passions, too. The "good guys" played nuanced, ...

Real bad guys have feelings and passions, too. The "good guys" played nuanced, multi-faceted roles as befits their complicated life histories; the bad guys just glared menacingly or laughed maniacally. Also a laff riot with good F/X.

Shaolin Soccer Review
Shaolin Soccer is the movie that got Stephen Chow's name recognized in the U.S. Shaolin Soccer has a good storyline, and at times can seem like many other comedy sports movies (Bad News Bears, Kicking and Screaming). However, it's combination of special effects and soccer makes this a truly unique movie. It has parts where the soccer teams are doing Matrix-esque moves on the field, and it also has a strange sense of humor (and I do mean strange). If you liked Kung Fu Hustle, you will probably like Shaolin Soccer.Shaolin Soccer is the movie that got Stephen Chow's name recognized in the U.S. Shaolin Soccer has a good storyline, and at times can seem like many other comedy sports movies (Bad News Bears, Kicking and Screaming).

Pure Genius
There is no one like Stephen Chow. We love his brilliant work! Hilarious and great fun for the family. It is a rare quality when people can laugh at themselves and not take their interests and occupations so seriously. Not everyone has a sense of humor, however, most people think they do. Kids will usually follow the lead of the parents. If the parents or adults put a movie down they will follow suit, especially if they love and respect the adult. I hope the adults let the kids make up their own minds about this movie and let them enjoy it. It is, after all, just a movie. . . but a one of great fun for the carefree!There is no one like Stephen Chow. We love his brilliant work! Hilarious and great fun for the family.

A campy Asian flick -- I kinda liked it
I enjoyed this movie for the sheer campiness and comedic kung-fu. It's an interesting film style that borders on its own genre. This film is created by the same team that brings us Kung-Fu Hustle. The story follows a group of men who practice a special form of kung-fu. They come together and apply their skills to the game of soccer. The soccer form borders on a superhero/video game style that is powerful and sci-fi. Kicking a ball can peel back the ground and generate bolts of fire. Fun to watch, but not realistic. Like I said, it's fun and interesting if you like campy films. If you want something realstic, this isn't for you.I enjoyed this movie for the sheer campiness and comedic kung-fu.
