Quarantine Watch #22: Kung Fu Hustle (2004)

Okay — this was a lot of fun. At times it feels like a Zucker/Abrams/Zucker or a Mel Brooks film (and the comedy in this is at their level). Other times the sets remind me of big time musicals like WEST SIDE STORY (1961) or CHICAGO (2002). At other times it’s THE MATRIX. Other times it’s THE LOONEY TOONS or WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT. It’s all over the place, so well crafted, and just a ride. I can only imagine how long it took to make this thing.
