From wildly imaginative kung fu showdowns to dance sequences featuring tuxedoed mobsters, you’ve never seen action this outrageous and characters this zany – with jaw-dropping fight sequences by Yuen Wo Ping (famed action choreographer of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and The Matrix), KUNG FU HUSTLE will blow you away!

Directed, produced and written by Stephen Chow (director and star of Shaolin Soccer), Kung Fu Hustle is ‘Slapstick silliness and martial artistry of the highest calibre’ – Film4
