Shaolin Soccer [DVD]

Great movie and good condition of the dvd

Swift delivery at a good price

Surprisingly entertaining considering how daft it is. My 9 year old loves it.

Honestly overlooked movie. Very very funny.

Although I love this film, there is no English dub. I should have checked before buying but there are subtitles.

I was a little apprehensive about this movie, after all kung fu football? Even more left field than the average baseball movie! But its a hoot, never a dull moment, even if its obvious what is going to happen at the end. A ragtag team of dreamers, disillusioned drifters and failed entrepreneurs, with an alcoholic crippled ex-footballer as a coach take on the all conquering Team Evil. Now what do you think happens? This is pure escapist fun from Stephen Chow and his team of usual suspects. No great acting on show here, simple one dimensional characters and a hackneyed storyline. Yet carried off with so much verve and panache its impossible not to love. This movie does exactly what it says on the tin. But watch the cantonese version, its longer, makes more sense and the jokes are even better than the stilted english delivery. And thats not even mentioning the incredible action and stunts.............

this film is full of belly laughs right from the opening credits. Stephen Chow's unique style is one not to be missed and here is a film which will delight and bring a smile to even the grumpiest of old men!!! Here we see Chow employ the skills learned in the Shaolin temple to soccer with hilarious results. A film i would certainly recommend and if you liked Kungfu Hustle then you will love this. Surreal and the special effects used to the maximum take nothing away from what is a very very funny film.Can be viewed in both cantonese and english but the english version misses out a few scenes.
