Nonureva Really Surprised!

Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Rasheed Zelig Thomas If you are looking for excellence, you are not going to like this movie! But you are looking for laughs strictly without having to turn your brain on, this movie is just for you! Kung Pow oddly enough has likable characters, funny voice acting & dumb but somehow great jokes! Whole idea of this movie was to make it dumb on purpose but still laughable. It's not like Date Movie, Scary Movie or Jack & Jill where those movies are just bad comedies with bad jokes with little effort put into them. The creator put his heart into this and it came out golden! And to add to this great review, I saw this as a kid, found it funny! I recently saw this and I found it much funnier than those 15 years ago! Usually as adults, we don't find those same things as good as it was as a child but this is one of the few times I'd enjoyed something more in my 20's! GREAT JOB, STEVE!!

p-stepien Despite the mediocre rating this isn't exactly an anti-review of this extravagant spoof comedy on wu-shu Asian martial arts movies, together with one hilarious English dubbing. Although definitely several notches below the ludicrous brilliance of "Kung Fu Hustle", this Steve Oedekerk written-directed-starred journey into oblivious stupidity, does have its undoubted merits.Even at birth the enigmatic Chosen One (Steve Oedekerk) is hunted by the evil and mysterious Council, as he alone possess the 'tongey' to prevent earthly doom. Thus the deadly Master Pain (Fei Lung) vel Betty is sent to put an end to the fated infant. After murdering his parents with his weaponised claws, the baby Chosen One decides to put up a fight, disposing of two agile martial artists and peeing Master Pain sour. After enacting a heroic escape the three month old tot is brought up by rodents, growing up with a keen eye for vengeance...Rife with humour, "Kung Pow: Enter the Fist" aims for guttural joy and laughter, not always hitting the mark, but continuously flinging out new ideas. Essential takeaways from the movie are a CGI epic showdown with a cow and some very cheeky usage of mistimed dubbing. Nonetheless a lot of the humour flies over your head and several elements are repetitive posing questions as to the necessary runtime for such a joke flick. Possibly an iconic comedy shtick, but a level headed approach is necessary to avoid just slapping it into the same category of drab affairs such as "Scary Movie" or "The Naked Gun".

wizarddude2 If you like Mystery Science Theater 3000, you will probably like this. If you read bad fanfiction because you think it's funny, you will probably like this. If you've ever lingered over bizarre Deviantart profiles, reveling in the absurdity, you will probably like this.The humor is cheap and often vulgar, but it gives the impression that it's doing so tongue-in-cheek; it's not just a parody of weird Kung Fu movies, but also of itself, laughing at its own flaws and shortcomings.It's very easy to understand why people would dislike this movie; I mean, it's lowbrow, it's dirty, and it's stupid. But somehow, it's also snidely sophisticated, compelling, and clever. If you've ever watched the recent Scary Movies and wished that they were actually good, watch this. You won't regret it.

poe426 In KENTUCKY FRIED MOVIE, director John Landis gave us one of the funniest kung fu movie parodies ever, FISTFUL OF YEN (a take off on ENTER THE DRAGON). While there have been a number of notable kung fu comedies in the intervening years (MY YOUNG AUNTIE, SHAOLIN BASEBALL, SHAOLIN SOCCER, KUNG FU HUSTLE, etc.), there haven't been a whole lot of parodies. Enter... KUNG POW: ENTER THE FIST. Steve Oederkirk actually manages to pull off a GAME OF DEATH-type of digital extraction, excising none other than Wang Yu himself from his own movie. In the context of Oederkirk's context (contextually speaking), it works beautifully. Of particular interest are two deleted scenes that shouldn't've been deleted: in the first, The Chosen One (Oederkirk) is being given the Bush-Cheney-Rumsefeld (mis)treatment like a sit-in protester on Wall Street. We see here a spider-like woman crawling around on the floor and back into her cage. It's a creepy scene not unlike one often finds in kung fu movies of the era (the 1970s). The second deleted scene shows The Chosen One using his middle leg to do everything from push-ups to pounding his opponents; it's funny and should've been left in (in my opinion). All told, some good, clean kung fu comedy. Recommended.
