“u003culu003eu003cliu003erecently released on budget DVD as Shaolin Idiot: How could actors as good as yuan Wah (wisely acting under a pseudonym) and Bill Tung (the wonderful u0026quot;Uncleu0026quot; in all those Jackie Chan Police Story films) get talked into this – I mean, it is hard enough to find farting funny, but with the right timing – but here we actually have to hear Stephen chow defecate! No, I canu0026#39;t do it; I know the tradition of u0026quot;cantonese comedy,u0026#39; and I know itu0026#39;s pretty raw; but I have no interest in Stephen chowu0026#39;s defecation.u003c/liu003eu003c/ulu003eu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis is really badly made; if it werenu0026#39;t for Bill Tung and Yuen Wah, the whole thing would be totally unbearable.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eApparently, the u0026#39;seven lucky starsu0026#39; group – which includes jackie Chan and Sammo hung – had a soft spot for Stephen chow. i have no idea why; he has little talent as anything other than a young Benny Hill clone, and I donu0026#39;t even think heu0026#39;s as good as that – to be honest, i sometimes find benny Hill funny.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNot this movie – useful only in punishing your enemies – otherwise, leave it alone!”
