But after like....5+ times...it just gets annoying.
Same with that Korean movie...My Sassy Girl. Good the first couple times...then just gets really long and boring the more you watch it.

One of my favorite Steven Chow movies is the one where he's like a 007 type of character, with a BUTCHER KNIFE! (That scientist is great... "I have a special SOLAR POWERED FLASHLIGHT"... and his ultra powerful weapon that consists of like 37 different parts like a bunchof knives, grenade, guns, all tied up with string.... and who can forget the STARE-DOWN chair!)...
omg I remember watching that movie when I was a kid and I also liked him in god of gamblers (or was it saint of gamblers?)
Saint of Gamblers, then he also did God of Gamblers II with Andy Lau.
The Butcher Knife movie was From Beijing with Love.

Wow it's just coming out now? I could've sworn I saw trailers for it like a year or two ago.

For SS, I enjoy the the pure love between Stephen Chow and that 'ugly' girl(Zhao Wei) in the movie. She is ugly in her look but I think she is much prettier as a person than most girls. She loved him in a way that is seldom seen nowadays and her willingness to wait and to sacrifice for him were pretty touching if you ever appreciate a girl's feeling. I think some of Stephen Chow recent works features the feeling he want to convey. One of his previous movie told us he was an actor, and later the movie about chef told us that he was making effort to do better. Now this one he told us that he had his own preception of Gungfu, well in a funny way too.
No offence, but I thought those scenes were the ultimate in cheesiness - and done that way on purpose. In fact, this movie basically makes fun of everything, and that's why I like it so much.

I think one of them plays the "ugly" girl in alot of movies including God of Cookery and the other was a lead in The Legend of Zu.

Awesome movie. The best was the VCD though, since it leaves in the Michael Jackson dance scene - deleted on the DVD I got. :disgust:Originally posted by: MogulMonster
Never saw it, but just ordered the original w/subtitles. It better be worth it!
