Why do people say this is good?
2 August 2023
This is an Americanised version of a fantasy adventure movie. Full of American accents and cheesy dialogue lifted straight from the 2020's (why would that exist in an ancient fantasy world?). Pretty terrible, although the special effects are pretty good, I'll give it that.

A man trying to resurrect his wife and regain the trust of his daughter is making wisecracks all the way through? I don't think that's realistic.

It says I have to get up to 600 words. What else can I say?

Here are 200 random words to get me over the word count:

1. Apple 2. Book 3. Chair 4. Dog 5. Elephant 6. Fish 7. Guitar 8. House 9. Ice cream 10. Jigsaw 11. Kite 12. Lemon 13. Moon 14. Nest 15. Orange 16. Piano 17. Quilt 18. Rainbow 19. Sun 20. Tiger 21.

A funny spoof and an intriguing mystery story
6 February 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I must admit that some of the reviews of this series on Google are funnier than the show itself 😂 it's a spoof people! Some people don't seem to realise, which is hilarious!

While it is a spoof, the laughs are pretty few and far between, but when you catch one (they're not all in-your-face obvious) they can make you laugh out loud. Like when you're two or three shows in and you realise that the handyman has been repairing the mailbox for days. It's not pointed out, but you may eventually realise. Then at the end it is revealed he's been fixing it for years! And in the last episode when she uses the same 'clever response' every time someone asks her how she's doing 😂 really silly and funny! And how you eventually realise that she's always taking chicken casseroles to people she visits! But even though it's not all laugh out loud funny, it's a good whodunnit in its own right.

I really enjoyed it, one to watch.

Eeeeuurgh, great Kung Fuuuuuuu!!!
4 September 2004
This film is absolutely awesome. I saw it with my brother when we were kids, and we found it hilarious.

I'm not sure if it's supposed to be funny, but by god we were hurting by the end! Like the bit where he showing the bad guys what he's learned at the Shaolin temple, and he's working his way up from showing them a mere 50% of his new powers, to "the full 90%".... What happened to 100%?

And the bit where, in order to show his pals what he's learned, he beats them all up! He whacks his best mate in the stomach, and his mate (who has teeth that are literally about two inches long sticking out of his mouth), bends over and exclaims; "eeeeuuuuurgh, GREAT KUNG FUUUUUU". It's a classic movie moment!

If you have chance to see this film, do it. It's brilliant!
