When the previews came out for "Hustle" though, I was kinda turned off, cause it seemed to be so focused on Looney Toons type humor. I'm glad we went to see it anyways, 'cause I thought it was great as well. I also recommend "Shaolin Soccer", but I actually thing "Hustle" is a better movie overall (it may have something to do with the dancing Axe Gang).

I think my favorite scene was probably the first set of assassins sent into Pig Sty Alley. The whole musical fighting style was hilarious - especially the very last attack that was repelled by the <em>Lion's Roar</em>. Now that you've mentioned it, though, the special effects <em>were</em> rather nice for a kung fu flick. ;) Sweet~ I enjoyed it very much; it made me laugh.

Matt, Katrina and I just got back from seeing it too. We went almost on a whim... Anyway, I was just totally blown away by the quality of the whole thing. The special effects were so far beyond anything I expected... my jaw was on the floor for half the damn movie. And for such a bizaare plot, I was surprised how many of the little details were interwoven and connected in sometimes unexpected ways. I dunno... maybe it's just because I was mostly expecting a typical cheep kung-fu film, but I was completely and utterly impressed. Hehe kinda funny.
