ChFilm to Watch: Shaolin Soccer (2001)

Shaolin Soccer (2001)


Crippled, former soccer star Fung is humiliated by former teammate Hung and is determined to seek revenge. Fung then meets kung fu master Sing who wants nothing more than to promote Shaolin kung fu because he thinks it can benefit any and all who use it. Fung then gets the idea to use Shaolin kung fu in soccer as a way to beat Hung, and he convinces Sing to find and recruit his kung fu brothers. Will they be able to defeat Hung's team and promote the Shaolin way of life?



*This was a silly little film, with very slapstick, exaggerated and clearly CGI effects. Fun and clean. It comes with English captions, but the script is half Mandarin, half Cantonese – similar to the Indian films that are part Hindi, part English. Good for a giggle, might watch again.*
