“Wow, I was really surprised by this movie. It is totally unique, Iu0026#39;ve never seen anything else like it. There is a very charming love story, and the effects are really cool. The idea of combining kung fu with soccer is very original…. even though itu0026#39;s so bizarre, youu0026#39;ll find yourself asking why nobody has done anything like this before. I laughed constantly throughout this movie and went out and bought it a few days after I first saw it. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI would recommend it to everyone I know. This is the best Asian comedy since the heyday of Jackie Chan and u0026quot;Fighting Bennyu0026quot;! Go see it, buy it, whatever, just make sure you do see this film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI would be surprised if there is not a sequel. This film should have been released theatrically in the US; Iu0026#39;ve heard Miramax handled it. Sorry guys you lost millions of dollars, this film would have been a smash hit. They probably just didnu0026#39;t think that soccer would sell in America, but word of mouth would have sold this movie very well.”
