The Interpreter & Kung-Fu Hustle
Spaceman-Spiff April 23rd, 2005
Saw The Interpreter and Kung-Fu Hustle today. I had high hopes on The Interpreter and low on Kung-Fu Hustle, but the results turned out to be different.
The Interpreter has good dialogs (and actors), but lacking a good plotline. Nothing surprising or new in the story, but it was still quite entertaining. Since I had high hopes on this movie, I was a little dissapointed at the end. It was the reverse for Kung-Fu Hustle…
When I saw Kung-Fu Hustle’s trailer a month or two ago, I wasn’t interested at all in the movie. It looked too cartoony from the trailer, and I had low expectancy for Stephen Chow’s newer movies. I love older his movies, but I find his newer ones not as funny. However, the movie turned out to be quite interesting. It’s not a complete comedy, it also has plenty of cool action (fighting) scenes. It still does look a bit cartoony in some scenes, like the Road-Runner-style chasing scene, but overall, it was very entertaining and funny.

Actually, I didn’t like the Kung-Fu Hustle. I stopped watching the movie half way. :/ I wish it had more story than just comedy + fighting. Oh, but one of my coworkers told me that he knows the ring guy (the one with all those rings on his arms) in real life. He lives somewhere in SF bay area.
