I saw this movie today at the TalkCinema screening in Northbrook, Illinois. I absolutely loved it!! This is a clever, entertaining movie made by someone who loves American movies. Every scene references some movie, TV show or cartoon, except that the film is a Kung Fu movie in Chinese--with subtitles. I recognized hilarious homages to "Touch of Evil," Roadrunner, "The Untouchables," "LA Confidential," "Pulp Fiction," Tex Avery, "West Side Story," and, in my favorite sequence, "The Shining." I was the only person at this TalkCinema showing who actually liked this movie. Please, please, please, go see Kung Fu Hustle, so Stephen Chow will make a ton of money and all those obnoxious sophisticates who insist that there is no audience for this movie will have to eat their words.
