Watch Kung Fu Hustle Movie Online No Survey The work of international superstar Stephen Chow, Kung Fu Hustle is a humorous, special-effects-filled, action-packed martial arts epic set in early '40s China. A bumbling thief named Sing (Stephen Chow) desires to be the toughest member of the dreaded gangster hit squad known as The Axe Gang, but to completely join the gang he has to commit murder. When Sing attempts to rob a crowded run-down apartment complex known as Pig Sty Alley, the locals begin to defend themselves with some high-flying kung fu skills, and a tiny war erupts between the local masters and the axe-wielding gang. After the gang busts the ancient kung fu king known as The Beast (Leung Siu Lung) out of jail, tensions reach a boiling point as Pig Sty Alley's landlady (Yuen Qiu) leads an all-out attack against the gang and Sing discovers his true heroic fate. Kung Fu Hustle, which set box-office records across Asia during its December 2004 release, also stars Yuen Wah and Xing Yu, and features fight choreography by legendary masters of martial arts cinema Yuen Woo Ping and Sammo Hung. ~ Jason Gibner, Rovi Release Date Kung Fu Hustle Apr 8, 2005 Limited | |

Review For Kung Fu Hustle |
So disarmingly eager to please that only a stone-faced kung fu purist could object. David Ansen-Newsweek
Chow's movie may seem nutty on the surface, but its slyness, its dreamy unfolding of so many moods and genres, becomes intoxicating. Ken Tucker-New York Magazine
Kung Fu Hustle snaps and crackles like nuclear popcorn on a scorching griddle. Desson Thomson-Washington Post
But for all its stylishness, verve and moments of visual poetry, the relentlessly punishing slapstick and overall cruel tone left me cold. Ann Hornaday-Washington Post
Retrieving the martial arts movie from the gentrified middlebrow tastefulness of movies like House of Flying Daggers is only one item on Kung Fu Hustle's agenda. Geoff Pevere-Toronto Star
With Hustle's release on 2,000 U.S. screens this week, Americans get to see what's so funny about Chow. The laugh's on them for not noticing him before. Richard Corliss-TIME Magazine
Slapstick silliness and martial artistry of the highest calibre. -Film4
A smart and very funny action comedy that will really knock your socks off. Felix Vasquez Jr.-Cinema Crazed
The ever-shifting genre of martial arts films takes on yet another variation with writer/director/actor Stephen Chow's CGI spectacle infused comic Kung Fu adventure. Cole Smithey-ColeSmithey.com
Gravity takes a backseat to levity. Mark Halverson-Sacramento News & Review
This rowdy martial arts comedy is best for older teens and up. Cynthia Fuchs-Common Sense Media
Keeps the gags flying almost as rapidly as the fists. Joe Lozito-Big Picture Big Sound
A film that is geared simply, straightforwardly and, above all, honestly to providing absolute entertainment. Keith H. Brown-Eye for Film
Absolutely insane comic tribute to classic martial arts films and stars. Michael Dequina-TheMovieReport.com
The laws of physics no longer apply, if they ever did; characters leap, run at neck-breaking speed, bash each other through several walls with one blow. Rob Gonsalves-eFilmCritic.com
The 'Axe-Kickin' Edition' DVD comes with a nice selection of extras. Brian Webster-Apollo Guide
While those who can't stand long fight scenes might find it a bit tiresome, everyone else is going to consider this a sweet, light-hearted martial arts treat. Brian Webster-Apollo Guide
Giant action sequences, funny characters, and, my favourite, a giant hand carved into the earth, whomping the bad guy into submission. So much fun. Jason Gorber-Film Scouts
A strange, fun flick that loves its source material dearly, Kung Fu Hustle is destined to become a cult classic. Russ Breimeier-Christianity Today
Simultaneously and paradoxically irreverent and loving. A terrific piece of cinematic entertainment Dan Jardine-Cinemania
Kung Fu Hustle flies by on bursts of dizzying slapstick invention. There's rarely a dull moment, but the wise-guy tone and the non-stop frenzy wear you down. Kurt Loder-MTV
