Team Evil had been injected with an American drug, granting them superhuman strength and speed, making them practically invincible, and they bring Team Shaolin back to reality when Team Evil's amazing capabilities prove more than a match for them. They end up meeting Team Evil in the final, owned by none other than Hung. Team Shaolin enters the open cup competition in Hong Kong, where they chalk up consecutive and often ridiculously one-sided victories due to their special Shaolin techniques. This revelation, coupled with the constant bullying from her overbearing boss, leads Mui to disappear. However, this backfires and when Mui reveals her feelings to him: he tells her he only wants to be her friend. She soon forms an attachment to Sing and even gets a makeover in an attempt to impress him. He takes her to look at very expensive dresses at a high-end department store after hours. Sing meets Mui, a baker with severe acne who uses Tai chi to bake mantou. The thugs then give up and ask to join Sing's team. When all seems lost, the Shaolin disciples reawaken and utilize their special powers, dismantling the other team's rough play easily. Fung invites a vicious team to play against them for a scrimmage, and the thugs proceed to give the Shaolin Team a literal beating. After some failed attempts, Sing's brothers all agree to participate in the team. Sing and Fung attempt to put together an unbeatable soccer team. Sing is compelled by the idea of promoting kung fu through soccer, and agrees to enlist his former Shaolin brothers to form a team under Fung's management. Sing explains his desires to Fung, who in turn offers his services to coach Sing in soccer. He then meets "Golden Leg" Fung a legendary Hong Kong soccer star in his day, who is now walking with a limp, following the betrayal of a former teammate, Hung, now a rich businessman. He experiments with various methods, but none bear positive results. I was entertained throughout and even though I was dead tired when I saw it in the theater, it held my interest all the way to the end.Sing is a master of Shaolin kung fu, whose goal in life is to promote the spiritual and practical benefits of the martial art to modern society. It could also be great if you feel like a good comedy.
It would be a good background movie for a party or poker game which could catch your eye at any moment and still hold your attention. To be honest, I could enjoy this movie without sound or subtitles, too. It borrowed or spoofed a bit from Spider-Man and The Matrix as well, which was a bit unexpected for this film, initially. Even the jokes with the subtitles came across as funny, and from my experience, humor does not translate as easily as this movie would have you believe. There was a simple story happening which made sense for what we were watching. Although there was not much to the story, it was not non-existent, either. The scene with the two assassins playing that stringed instrument (don't know the name of it) in such a way that it kills was incredible. Unlike Kung Pow, the jokes did not grow tired on me and the special effects were definitely top notch. Upon first viewing the trailer, I thought we would have another Kung Pow: Enter The Fist on our hands but, boy, was I wrong. Kung Fu Hustle was one of the most visually imaginative and unique movies I have seen in quite some time.
