WHAT?!?!?!
27 January 2002
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! Back in 1966 Woody Allen made the film "What's Up Tiger Lily?" He took a full-fledged Japanese movie and wiped out the sound-track. Then he put in his own sound with voice overs and everything. IT WAS RATHER FUNNY!!! Kung Pow took a Chinese film and trashed the sound-track. Then HORRIBLE voices that aggravate your ears after a while, were placed in. About 4 modern characters were integrated into the film, and a whole slew of "potty" jokes were inserted into the dialogue. Even the jokes weren't funny for bathroom humor. The flashes between characters back and forth became extremely annoying with the sounds added. The female romantic character from the original film's voice was done by a man using a "female" voice and she always said "ee-oo-ee-oo-ee" at the end of her lines. The last time she said this it was dragged out WAY too long. The commercials for this film made it look like something along the lines of "Zoolander." Basically a fun mindless movie. However the commercials were more entertaining than the film. When those scenes were put into context they lost all their humor. Also, certain attempts at intelligent jokes were really jokes overplayed, like the "Lion King's" face in the clouds. All I can say, is what was the director/main star thinking? When he sat down to look at his final print, did he honestly enjoy it? This film isn't even good for children, as the simple jokes are interspersed with swear words. One last time... DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!
