Director: Ben Garant
Cast: Christopher Walken, Dan Fogler, George Lopez, Maggie Q, Robert Patrick, Thomas Lennon
RunTime: 90 mins
Genre: Action/Comedy
Rating: PG (Some Coarse Humour)
What it sounds like: Privates of angry wrestlers
What it actually is: Comedy about a former child star ping-pong player Randy Daytona who goes undercover to smoke out a notorious ping-pong master Feng. He falls in love with his kung-fu fighting teacher Maggie (Maggie Q).
What it really, really is: A ridiculous pales down version of Dodgeball who makes fun of Chinese, kuai lohs (caucasians) fat slobs, FBI agents, and whores.
Why it is worth $9:50: Its cast! Dang Fogler playing Randy Daytona is a fatter but more endearing Jack Black; Maggie Q adds to the sizzle factor; James Hong playing Master Wong sprouting Cantonese insults is just a classic act. Look out for Jason Scott Lee who is unrecognizable as the brawny but brainless player. If you don’t really care about all this, then wait for its cable telecast 3 years later.
Quote of the Day: It is better to die like a tiger, than to live like a pussy.
Balls of Fury - Funny lah! But that's about it.
