This autumn at the Senate, kung fu returns to our big screen for the 20th anniversary of the wacky action extravaganza, Kung Fu Hustle! As the leaves fall outside so too will the karate chops and flying kicks rain down, bludgeoning your eyeballs with acrobatic martial arts action, leaving you reeling, clutching a belly made sore by a relentless slapstick comedy attack.
Directed by and starring filmmaker, actor and master of the absurd Stephen Chow, Kung Fu Hustle follows the travails of Sing, an inept wannabe gangster. In the slums of 1940s Shanghai Sing struggles to find the true hero within as he faces off against a tornado of axe-wielding thugs, hidden powers, and cartoonishly nasty villains.
This award-winning new classic is as brazenly brutal as it is beautifully silly, combining the energy of Bugs Bunny’s most manic antics with artful and elaborate fight choreography.
This is Hong Kong cinema at its biggest and boldest. See it big. See you at the Senate!
