I will tell you right now, I am not the biggest fan of comedy movies as they just come off as incredibly dumb to me. That being said, one such RIDICULOUS movie that I was introduced to by my lovely husband was Kung Fu Hustle.

This is a 2004 Hong Kong movie that describes itself as a martial arts action comedy film that was directed and starred in by Stephen Chow.

Thinking back on it, I could not tell you the premise exactly due to all the hilarity that ensued centered around a slum housing complex, some sort of gang fighting going on, and the ridiculous characters with odd super powers that present themselves. It is rated R so just be mindful when you watch it. I also believe the original was in Chinese so prepare for reading hilarious subtitles, or find a dubbed version which is still hilarious, but some of the context is changed a bit.

When I was first sat down and told to “watch this” by Kolton, I was instantly on edge lol. We have some rivaling opinions about good movies so I went in expecting to not enjoy myself. Fortunately, it was actually an enjoyable experience lol. It is now stored away in my mind for hilarious parody style movies.
