Here's a few tipbit about this movie: He managed to get the legendaries actors in HK to work, one in particular is the actual grandson of the famous Wong Fei Hong (the well-known martial artist, whom Jet Li played several times in the movies such as Once Upon A Time in China I, II, etc).

I was blown away with the talent of his when he did Shaolin Soccer, I've watched many of his previous work, they all comedy like and enjoyable but it was as impressive to say it's THAT GREAT, Shaolin Soccer changed it, I've shown it to soo many friends and everyone enjoyed it, I still laugh out loud at the scene when the girl hits her head on the soccer field.. :) Kung Fu Hustle is a more traditional blend, Stephen is a big fan of Bruce Lee so he blended a few more interesting stuff, not to mention, if you have watched many movies coming out past years, Matrix, Kill Bill, etc, you would notice a similarity within, cause he tries to make it a more 'western' acceptable.

I enjoyed the re-vamped of classical Chinese music with a contemporary flare, at first, it was hard to digest, but then it blended well...

Obviously at some point you can tell the wire-fu connection but overall, this is a really enjoyable movie.

Shaolin Soccer inspired me with its unique style which inspired me with my current film A Joker's Card while Kung Fu Hustle went to the next level of comedy mixing with kungfu fighting!
