WHAT THE STUDIO WANTS YOU TO KNOW

DESCRIPTION:

    Stephen Chow (director and star of Shaolin Soccer) is at it again with his newest action-packed and comedic martial-arts adventure, Kung Fu Hustle.
    From wildly-imaginative kung fu showdowns to dance sequences featuring tuxedoed mobsters, you've never seen action this outrageous and characters this zany! With jaw-dropping fight sequences by Yuen Wo Ping (famed action choreographer of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and The Matrix), Kung Fu Hustle will blow you away!
    In a town ruled by the Axe Gang, Sing (Stephen Chow) desperately wants to become a member. He stumbles into a slum ruled by eccentric landlords who turn out to be kung fu masters in disguise.
    Sing's actions eventually cause the Axe Gang and the slumlords to engage in an explosive kung fu battle. Only one side will win and only one hero will emerge as the greatest kung fu master of all.

This film became the highest grossing film in Hong Kong that was also made in Hong Kong surpassing Shaolin Soccer, Stephen Chow's previous film.
While Stephen Chow was the only person credited as directing the film, two scenes were actually directed by Hung Kam-Bo. The scenes are where The One fights the thousand men in black suits, and the night fight where the three masters face the two musicians.
