Kung-Fu Hustle was released in 2004, It was a instant success. Loved by audience and critically acclaimed too. The movie pays tribute to the Chinese wuxia genre which is hugely based on martial arts. Kung-Fu Hustle is inundated with serious situations and comic plots. In the backdrop of Shanghai in 1930s, it is a story of Chow, who is trying to find his own identity. He played a petty criminal who is trying to join the city's most powerful and notorious gang. The use of visual effects has been hugely appreciated and the animated style of the movie along with traditional Chinese music proved as eminent feature.
The film was released on 23 December 2004. It became the highest grossing film in the history of Hong Kong, and in the United States also it grossed highest revenue as foreign language film in 2005.The movie is unique in many ways, be it action or comedy or the way the movie proceeds.
There are many scenes where you can’t help but laugh like a kid. The few among the best according to me are as follows:
The Chasing scene where Chow is being chased by the Lady, owner of the Society.
When Chow and his friend tries to kill the Lady.
Chow invites the tenants for a one to one fight.
His encounter with the ultimate master.
Five out of Five stars from my side.
