Did anyone else see this yet?

I'm not a fan of Martial Arts type movies but this was great!

Insanely violent but in a cartoon way with people being hurled through buildings and doing other impossible stuff :D

Great Cinematography, lots of references to other films, incredibly fun! :thmbsp:

Like a lot of Hong Kong flicks,its CGI let off its leash,but it has a lot of wit,and some terrific fight scenes.The same director made Shaolin Soccer a few years ago.If you liked Hustle,youll probably enjoy that one,too.

I watched it last night after resisting it in the theater. Wished I'd seen it there. Pee your pants funny in spots.

I watched them both in a row last night for the first time. They may be 2 of my newest favorites. Just plain old good fun. The part where the 2 guys were throwing the knives and kept stabbing the one guy, that made me crack up. "Who's throwing handle's at me" Hee,Hee, made me laugh.

They use a lot of parodies to poke fun at/copied the classic H/K kung fu movies. The bad dude was actually the main actor's kung fu idol when the main actor was young. The movie has good bass also.

I think the landlord's wife is the bomb.

You know it! The scene where she is in the car backseat with the Axe Gang boss & his accountant especially. She says nothing, she gestures & there is no doubt as to the point she is making. That & the dangling cigarette.

I love hearing my wife & kids laugh. That scene completely uncorked us.
