Shaolin Soccer
“Get ready to kick some grass!”
Original title: 少林足球
Director
Stephen Chow
Screenplay
Stephen Chow, Tsang Kan-Cheong
Hong Kong star Stephen Chow writes, directs and stars in this martial-arts sports comedy about a disillusioned Shaolin disciple who reunites his scattered, down-on-their-luck kung fu brothers to form a soccer team, using their superhuman martial-arts abilities to dominate the pitch. The film's gleeful embrace of absurd, gravity-defying wire-fu spectacle applied to sports comedy — flaming fireball kicks, players launched skyward — became an instant genre-blending sensation across Asia. A massive regional box-office hit that helped establish Chow as a major international filmmaking talent ahead of Kung Fu Hustle.
