must catch... "Kungfu Hustle" by Stephen Chow...

been listening and seeing so much of its reviews and advertisements... good and bad... some say it's just as good as shaolin soccer but some say it's not as good... hmmmm... which is which... i tink the best thing is to find out myself... ehehehehe... dun worry, i'll definitely catch it by tis week the latest... while waiting, let's do some reading...ehehehehe....



Synopsis:
Set amid the chaos of pre-revolutionary China, small time thief, Sing, aspires to be a member of the sophisticated and ruthless Axe Gang whose underworld activities overshadow the city.

Stumbling across a crowded apartment complex aptly known as "Pig Sty Alley", Sing attempts to extort money from one of the ordinary locals, but the neighbours are not what they appear to be.

Sing's comical attempts at intimidation inadvertently attract the Axe Gang into the fray, setting off a chain of events that brings the two disparate worlds face-to-face.

As the inhabitants of the Pig Sty Alley fight for their lives, the ensuing clash of kung fu titans unearths some legendary martial art masters. Sing, despite his futile attempts, lacks the soul of a killer and must face his own mortality in order to discover the true nature of a kung fu master.

verdict: 3/5 stars(considering the lousy storyline but credits will be given to the cgi... hahaha!!!)
