One of the funniest and craziest martial arts action comedy movies ever made

In Chinese culture - and I'm sure in many others - you can refer to people as sister/brother/auntie/uncle as a sign of respect and as part of the hierarchy. You don't need to be related. Shaolin Soccer is an obvious one to check out next, but the best Stephen Chow film is probably A Chinese Odyssey.

The knife scene will ALWAYS crack me up no matter how many times i see it! It's one of the few things my brother and i share, we'll be 70 and still laugh talking about it i swear😂

52:12 “that’s the lollipop girl!” The way I screamed 😂😂

Fun fact, the axe gang dance at the beginning was one of the hardest shots they did in the whole film, as getting it to look perfect and in sync was a pain

Zuff saying he knows Kung Fu because he saw all the Karate Kids is exactly how I wanted to start my day

I love this movie so much. Used to watch it all the time. I’m always mad that Coolie went out without a fight though lol

The landlord's name is Yuen Wah. He played the role of the old man in Tao Lo in the movie Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. Additionally, the Kung Fu Hustle movie poster was visible in Shang-Chi's bedroom. Finally, the ten rings in the movie were portrayed as armbands/bracelets instead of finger rings as depicted in the comic book and were worn by the tailor character in Kung Fu Hustle.

Wrong mindset for this film. Maybe the next time they watch it they can just enjoy it instead of taking it so seriously.

Widely considered the Looney Tunes equivalent of kung fu films. It's literally a live action cartoon. And it's the gold standard for how filmmakers should represent anime fights in live action. It's such a timeless gem.

I wonder what the boys would think of "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon (2000)"? It was nominated for 10 Oscars, and winning 4 that year. Also Michelle Yeoh (Everything Everywhere) & Zhang Ziyi (Rush Hour 2) are the leads! ☺🗡💪

MORE STEPHEN CHOW MOVIES PLEASE!!! Namely "Shaolin Soccer", "Journey to the west" and "God of Cookery!"

The instrument/weapon those guys were playing is called a Guqin (Goo-Kin), which is a Chinese Zither. It often shows up as a musical weapon in Chines Wuxia films and shows.

I love the reveal of the landlord and landlady being absolute badasses.

Rob and his obsession with the ass guy is insane.😂😂😂

This is one of my dads favorite movies. I’ve watched this movie so many times. He used to watch the Old Lady’s scenes in slow mo & crack up for SO long. 😂

The woman at the beginning is not his sister. Calling him Big Brother is an honorific. You'll also hear words like Auntie, Uncle, Grandma and Grandpa, but the people are related. It's just a respectful title.

This is one of my favourite movies. I can rewatch this over and over again. I always find little things that I missed from previous watches. I still feel sad that the first three king fu masters died. Loved this movie

If you like this film definitely check out "Shaolin Soccer" it's directed by the same guy . It's sports comedy mix with Kung Fu

I saw this film when it came outing American theaters in 2004. I've probably watched it over 50 times since then. One of the great comedy movies of all time in my opinion because the action sequences are actually good! Great blend of humor, drama, character arcs and violence.

One of the principles of kung fu is to not take a life, it’s more defensive and or spiritual. That’s why the good guys don’t kill using kung fu, only the villains do.

this movie is like live action anime, the fights, the "powers" they have, it's just literally just fighting styles that these people are masters of, my favorites are the three from the village, beautiful fights.

No matter how many times I've watched this show & I've watched this a ton (Been a fan of HK cinema since early 90s & Stephen Chow was King of Comedy!), that knife & snake scene gets me in stitches EVERY DAMN TIME.

thank you for watching this film, guys. stephen chow ('the one') is the equivalent of a hollywood comedic legend like adam sandler. when i grew up in the 90s in asia, he was already the leading guy in a few famous hk comedic films. someone said the guy who plays the landlord is also a legend, his filmography is insane. he was in the shang chi film. the landlady is a veteran actor too. if in the future you're interested in watching another gem, most people would recommend you watch 'shaolin soccer'. some actors from this film were in it too (ala adam sandler). happy birthday to ROB. and a happy Christmas to you lads.

This one of my absolute favorites. I’m always really moved at the end when he turns his adversary into a friend by simply saying, “I can teach you.” The Beast recognizes he has so much to learn outside of hatred & violence. Hence his emotional response. Such beautiful sentiment in a crazy movie. There’s more power in the open hand than in the closed fist. 💜💜

This movie is a homage to all the Eastern/Western film classics. There are references to Untouchable, Enter of the Dragon, The Shining and many more.

dude the left guy is soooooo hiiiiiiighhh lmao

I went to the theater to see this when it released while I was in high school. To this day, it's still one of my favorites! ❤

"I CAN SPOT THIS ASS FROM ANYWHERE" AYOOOOOO

This Movie is a GEM. I watched it every weekend as a kid and I still can’t find another movie that is comparable. Next watch Shaolin Soccer from 01!

The landlady is actually like a world champion martial artist

Stephen Chow has a lot of iconic movies that are famous with my parents generation like god of gambler, flirting scholar, the god of cookery, the mad monk, royal tramp, fight back to school and ofc Shalin soccer

This movie is just so much fun and the landlady with the perms is honestly fierce.

You should check out Shaolin Soccer, by Stephen Chow

Coolie is not a name. It's the term used for porters who lift heavy stuff. The Brits called all the natives coolies in their colonies. It's become a racist and derogatory term now in places that were colonies previously. So if you called an African that, it's the same as the N word. Though it's used in Asia to address porters in general.

zaff : "look like a harry potter". robs : 😒 ( boombastic side eye) zaff always looking soo tired in every reaction. and he's soo random and naturally funny 😂 and bryce make you love him more and more in every reaction 🙃

"big brother"/sis/uncle/auntie is like a nickname to address others as a form of respect haha so that girl is not related to him

In the movies, there a lot of movie references like road runner and the scene when the landlady was threatening the axe gang leader was also from a Bruce lee’s movie called way of the dragon 33:19

Thank god you guys watched this! One of my favorite just random comedies growing up, I used to put everyone on!

I would never have thought you guys would watch this movie 💀💀 this was a childhood classic for me and my siblings

The landlady was a Bond girl in Man with the Golden Gun. She's one of the Thai boy girl nieces who fights the entire martial arts school.

As many times I've seen this movie, I never noticed the guy with his ass out at the end 😂😂😂

It's funny that the Yang's octagon stuff, twelve kicks and iron fist are really exist, and donut, fairy and coolie are real kung fu master of these.

Its the best live action anime before live action adaptation was a huge thing. This is also my favorite movie of all time

This was my first video I watched, but I went back and watched like a half dozen others on your channel, and I have to say I am BLOWN AWAY by the guy in the middle's transformation. Short hair and a hat make this dude look like a total Chad. I went back to previous videos and realized he's used to look like the biggest nerd of them all. Crazy to me how different he looks. Keep it up dude, you look great. You made me consider cutting my own long hair.

Green guy just speak the most random out of nowhere things lol.

Poor dude with the hat was fighting so hard not to sleep haha

“It’s an older movie” … ouch Bryce 😂

'That's not a cool thing to be, I dont really think of a frog when i think of a beast...' 😆 Zuff is soo funny without he even realising it

ShangChi has the Kungfu Hustle poster hang in his apartment An homage to the Ten Rings master (The Tailor)

Most of the big characters are big kung fu stars of old. The gay tailor and the assassin musician guy with the nails that was fighting him in his store are old action stars. The latter worked with Jackie Chan in some films. The landlord and landlady are pretty similar, old martial arts stars, the landlady actress even put on weight just for this role. The guy playing Coolie, the guy with the kick style, is also a somewhat well known stuntman and martial artist, he’s in many films as a supporting actor. Stephen Chow has a crew of actors that you see in all of his movies, the fat guy is one of them, as well as the two leaders of the axe gang. Most interesting though is the story of the actor who plays the Beast. This was his return role to acting after decades. He is an action / martial arts actor who fell out of favour with the communist party in china so he was pretty much banned from starring in movies, missing his prime as a result, and Stephen Chow invited him to do this film which kickstarted his acting career again.

When we watch this in theater back then we knew who the main character is cause we all knew Stephen Chow. He is big in Asia. But seeing Americans watching this blindly, yeah you might get confused who is the main character here.

ok this calls for 'shaolin soccer' next

If you guys like good Kung Fu movies, Hero with Jet Li is a good one to check out.

big brother in china doesn't mean real brother, it's just a term of respect like sir or maam

The One was broken when he was a kid. Being a naive and good person just got him pissed on and beaten up. So he's trying so hard to become a bad guy. A con. But since he's really good at heart, he's just really bad on being bad. The forceful laugh when he rob the girl for the first time is a subtle hint that he's really faking it being a bad heartless monster. When beast got him near death, his chi flow opened. He's got the clarity and content to his full potential. Anyway, great video guys. I've been watching so many reactions to this movie, you're the only one remember the frog foreshadowing in the asylum. Nice Also, did you tried react to Shaolin Soccer yet? It's a must after Kung Fu Hustle. It's the early movie from the same guy, Stephen Chow, on writing and directing. It's the cult classic. The scene in Kung Fu Hustle movie when he's destroyed kids' soccer ball? It's a reference to Shaolin Soccer, which is so good, the fans demanding sequel for years. So he's answering with this scene in which he said, "No more soccer!"

*totally unsurprised/emotionless face*: "zero percent of me thought that was gonna work" lmao

Now, you have to watch Shaolin Soccer. It's pretty much on the same spirit with many of the same actors, including the lead actor. It's as hilarious.

I'm always rewatching this movie along with "Kung Fu Dunk" highly recommend!

YOU GUYS DEFINITELY NEED TO WATCH SHAOLIN SOCCER

FINALLY I'VE BEEN ROOTING FOR YOU GUYS TO WATCH THIS

In asia we called everyone bro/sis uncle/auntie even if we're not related

Coolie and fairy are nicknames, insulting ones at that, not the characters actual names. Coolie is an insult for calling someone lazy and calling Donut "fairy" is basically the landlord calling Donut gay.

Pai Mei's Five point palm exploding heart technique.

this movie is my childhood fav, thanks for reacting guys.

This movie is iconic

Omg i cant believe you guys watched this movie 😂 that means you have to watch shaolin soccer now

omg this is so surprising. this movie is what i’d like to call a personal classic

“The 36th Chamber Of Shaolin” You won’t be disappointed It’s a masterpiece

Day 9 requesting Violet Evergarden :) So much respect for you guys doing 25 days of movies, I’m sure it’s an overloaded schedule!

Big brother is a literal translation of the Chinese honorific title, and translating it as boss is more appropriate

This is literally one of my favorite movies me and my family have been watching for so long very good I love this guys 💕💕💕💕

Asians especially Chinese call each other brothers and sisters, also aunts and uncle if the person is older as respectful way .😊 Steven chow movies are funny His other good one is shaolin soccer. 😊

One of the funniest movies of all time!

I swear Zuff is one of the funniest people on earth. And the other two's reactions to his comments just make it funnier.

when zuff said he thinks they changed the actor i laughed because i remember thinking the same when u watched this movie as a kid 😂

Hahahahha all of you were scared with the snake bite.

Comedy is often hard to translate (how many German comedies can you name?). This film is brilliant.

"I watched Karate Kid, so I know a bit about Kung Fu" is a helluva statement. But yeah, Shaolin Soccer is the next logical one to try. It's the previous film by the same guy (who btw, is the main character, the writer, and the director)

Guy in green has face blindness.

21:35 😂 funny reactions from y'all

shaolin soccer next!

It's Chinese custom to addressed someone/strangers close to your age as big brother or big sisters. And those that are older as uncle and auntie and the elderlies as grandpa and grandma out of respect.

your guy on the left killed this watch for me. his nonintrest in the movie made me feel like why am I watching this movie... reaction... his hand touched his face atleast 15 times before the movie even started.

Welcome to Stephen Chow's universe :D you will love the rest of his works

@55:19 "His a$$ is out!!" 😂

4:25 in Chinese you say big brother as like an honorific, not actually family relation, like calling someone uncle

The axe gang (Big brother = gang leader) was a opium smoker, hence his teeth & behavior, etc. This movie have lots of hidden jokes, meaning & other classic movie references most don't know. 😁

In China they often call each other brother or sister, that doesn't mean they are relatives.

Has been awhile since seen this ! Without cheating The One / Stephen Chow directed the movie played the One and was also the old man scamming the kids with his " Fake " how to books 🤣😂!

Damn seeing this thumbnail just brought back so many memories 😂😂😂

In Chinese, you call any stranger who is senior either Big brother or Big sister.

Watch Shaolin soccer same director and actors from this movie. Love both movies grew up watching it.

Then watch "Shaolin Soccer" the main character there is also him.

Like this flick a lot but love Shaolin Soccer by the same crew.

You guys should react Forbidden Kingdom

21:36 I love how all three of you recoil at the exact same time

"That was his sister" lol no, we asians use big brother/big sister/auntie/uncle to people either we look up to or older than us, even those that are not related to us, it's like honorifics too, similar to Mr/Ms/Sir/Maam And how could you not know this masterpiece of a movie and Stephen Chow? Preposterous, won so many awards and at one point, the highest grossing foreign film in the west, how could you? Hahaha Check out Shaolin Soccer too, made and stars the same guy (which is also a big hit) EDIT: That guy wearing green, are f****** okay dude? Lol

shaolin soccer next!!
