Shaolin Soccer
Not the crappy American release, but the real one from Hong Kong. Get it if you can. We decided to stay home and watch a movie and since Tami hadn’t seen this it was the obvious choice even though she doesn’t like kung-fu movies. She thought it was an odd and strangely entertaining movie though she was tire and slept through the ending. It’s not something she would have chosen for herself but she enjoyed it.
If you haven’t seen it you should! It’s a better story than Kung-Fu Hustle but now as stylish.
If you liked that, “God of Cookery” is another by the same director. It also stars the same actor. I can dig it up for viewing, if you’re interested.
