If you're a Cliff Lok can like I am,see this movie. Cliff is the Kung Fu genius - he's able to copy anyone's style of Kung Fu after seeing them fight, thus gaining the ability to whoop their asses.With a doofy sidekick,he opens a Kung Fu school and that's when the trouble starts. With a simple,basic plot that's understandable, this is one of the better martial arts movies out there. Plenty of fighting that's pretty good, a story a six year old can understand, Cliff Lok, AND Lee Hoi San, you can't go wrong. Grab a beer or three and watch with friends.
... View MoreHmmmm another movie that steals its sound track from George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead....I really couldn't believe what I was hearing..lol Fairly standard kung fu fair ...pretty funny in places and pass's the time. After I heard The Goblin I had to watch on just to see if they had stolen anymore. There's also some pretty nice funk breaks as well, blatantly taken from other soundtracks. Lots of punch noises and blade sounds ...and the kind of dubbing you would expect to find sampled in a lot of 90's hip-hop. The film's no masterpiece but has some excellent fight sequences...There's a great one with a hola-hoop....I kid you not!5/10
... View MoreI don't want to get carried away, but KUNG FU GENIUS has to be my absolute FAVORITE kung fu movie of all time. Even were it not for the crisp, invigorating, and off-the-wall fight scenes, the non-intelligence-insulting plot, the slick badass main character, his very amusing whiny bitch of a sidekick, and the drunken monkey AND the duck method, even were it not for ALL those things, I would STILL adore KUNG FU GENIUS, for one reason and one reason only: Supporting Character Gets Kicked In The b***s, Subsequently Begins Acting Like A Robot. You just can't beat that, I tell you.
... View MoreThis is a pretty standard chop socky flick for most of the movie. Actually it's meant to be a spoof of kung fu movies. There's lots of action all the way through and well choreographed fight scenes. But if there's one reason to see this virtually unknown title it's to see the Charles Bronson look-a-like guy as the teacher of all methods of Kung Fu. Towards the end he breaks out the Duck Method. The Duck Method is by far one of the most hilarious scenes you will ever behold no matter how many movies you see.
