Today’s movie: Shaolin Soccer

This was a total hoot. Cross super kung fu fanatics with a soccer competition against a team lead by an evil megalomaniac and over the top acrobatics. That’s what you get in Shaolin Soccer (Siu lam juk kau). Stephen Chow does a Woody Allen, he’s the writer, director and star, and now I’m really looking forward to his Kung Fu Hustle that opens Friday. Very strange and hard to describe, nothing like anything we get from Hollywood, just totally worth your time.
