'Shaolin Soccer' is a film probably unlike you have ever seen, it is goofy fun, totally ridiculous, but entertaining all the way through. Discussing the plot would be as silly as the film itself, but I will say a couple of things to give you an idea. The soccer competition is in the hand of one man named Hung (Yin Tse). He leads a team called Team Evil, winning the competition every year. Now Golden Leg Fung (Man Tat Ng), a man made cripple by Hung a long time ago, ensembles his own team which exists out of Shaolin kung-fu fighters, lead by Sing (Stephen Chow). There is also a girl involved, of course.
What you can expect is a lot of fun and funny moments. To give you an example, Sing can kick the ball so hard he can disable four opponents with one shot. Other can defy gravity the way the characters did it in 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon'. From time to time the ball changes into a ball of fire, causes strong winds or the earth to tremble. Of course the Shaolin team will face Team Evil in the final game and of course it is a big surprise who will win. What does it matter? By then you have laughed a lot, you have seen some pretty images, you are really entertained.
