Shaolin Soccer at the Rio Theatre
Advertisement
All his life, an ordinary young man (Stephen Chow) has been treated like dirt. Still, he’s never given up believing that all the world’s problems could be solved with a little kung fu. So he’s teaming up with a band of misfits – six friends who were kung fu masters in their youth – to form a soccer team that only he believes has a chance to win a $1 million grand prize. Together, they’re going to apply their hidden talents to a whole new game — and soccer will never be the same.
“A blitzkrieg of hilarious kung fu craziness.” (Lessons of Darkness)
“Catnip to those familiar with the conventions of Hong Kong martial arts movies.” (Toronto Star)
“A very funny movie.” (Globe and Mail)
“As always, [Stephen] Chow shows himself an acute parodist of other genres while adding his own cherry on the top.” (Variety)
