This is a quirky movie with some weird twists...I didn't think much of it when I saw it at the video store, but after watching it, I'd recommend seeing it.

But the kung fu to samba was a nice twist. I would have loved this movie if I were 12 years old.

I read somewhere that it was a mega-hit in hong kong. I don't think it's mega-hit material, but I think it's definitely worth a look.

I really thought that it sucked. Admittedly it had some really good camera work and angles, but there is so much better Hong Kong cinema stuff around. I so couldn't follow the plot. I wouldn't bother to watch it again. :(

Before somebody else takes you out of the frame
And puts your name to shame
Cover up your face
You can't run the race
The pace is too fast,
You just won't last!"

I liked it. It was fresh, at least for me. Not hit material, but a nice saturday evening watch.

I want one of those electric rods! you can follow the plot if you watch it more than once...It's confusing that first time through.
