The 'Bruce Lee' goalkeeper did play as Bruce Lee in Ip Man 4. He was also the Axe Gang boss in Kung Fu Hustle :) You can also recognize the 'butt guy' (6:20) from Hustle was in this movie too. The 'manly faced woman' from 17:44 is a throwback to Chow's older film, 'Flirting Scholar' where the actor played the exact same, cross dressing character XD

Did you notice that the first singer to join chow was barber in kung fu hustle that would never pull his pants up lol. Goalie was the head boss for the axe gang lol

THIS is how to do a live action anime movie...Stephen Chow is a genius

One of my friend said: "Shaolin Soccer isn't a movie for you to make sense about. It's a movie for you to feel. And laugh".

Flirting Scholar, God of Cookery and King of Comedy.

God Of Cookery is strong. Some scenes in that put me on the floor.

your laugh is so contagious and makes rewatching the movie scenes in this video so much funnier LOL

I saw this back in 2001 in college. A friend got a fan sub vhs tape of this and said it’s a movie about ex-Shaolin monks that form a soccer team with Matrix-like effects. Of course I was going to watch it. Bought the dvd when it came out officially.

Yeah I agree with your analysis that shaolin soccer had a better more cohesive story, even if it had less action and comedy compared to Kung fu hustle.

The movie has some inspiration and nods to an anime called Captain Tsubasa from the 80s that was super popular around the world. Every few decades or so the anime gets retold, the latest iteration came out in 2018, should give it a watch. Also, much respect in watching in it's original language.

I watched this movie with my dad when it first came out on DVD and I must have been six years old or so. After that, I just continued watching it several times on my own in high school and in college. For me, Shaolin Soccer kind of parodies Captain Tsubasa while Kung Fu Hustle parodies Hong Kong retro martial arts cinema but I cannot help but see it parodying other martial arts anime, overall, a great movie!

Grew up watching this, i don't know how many times I've watched it, but I still laughed probably as hard as you did watching here again. It never gets old. Not only is this my childhood, i grew to love it even more.

I agree. Also I prefer original language with subtitles for the sole reason that the acting is usually much better. To be fair, it's probably not super easy to voice act an exciting live action movie alone in a studio.

Omfg. I literally watched this for the first time today😬😂❤️

I agree, I feel dubs are essentially a different movie... like an alternate version. I will sometimes watch dubs as well as the subs, but subs will always be my first choice to see the film in it's original and true form. (edit: It also doesn't help that dubs can be really hit or miss in quality)

It's funny he kept calling the goalie bruce lee because that actor plays a young bruce lee in IP Man 4 😂

Yeah that dude has played Bruce Lee before in numerous of films including a tv show about Bruce’s life

We were growing up with lots of anime accompanied us in our childhood. Stephen Chow watched lots of anime too so there were lots of anime reference in his movie.

This movie right here is my childhood. It was the time when everyone used to watch a lot of Kung-fu movies. Mostly with Jackie Chan or Jet Lee ones. "Shaolin Soccer" was the first Stephen Chow's movie I saw and I loved it so much, watched it for so many times I know it by heart now😄 but strangely this scene 18:33 where she's posing and fighting wasn't in any versions I've watched so far🤔 Oh and thank you for choosing subs over dubs. I'm always for the original version.

A live-action anime, that's EXACTLY how I describe this movie to people who've never seen it. 😁

He can really direct comedy and action, but Stephen Chow is really good at writing romance too. I totally buy the love story in both movies. Highly underrated part of both movies. While funny and enjoyable, I think I love Kung Fu Hustle more. Nothing against Shaolin Soccer, but Chow isn't yet at his peak here. I don't have anything critical to say why I feel this way, so this is just my opinion.

Stephen chou have always been know to have a kin of comic/cartoon logic in his movies, even before shaolin soccer or kungfu hustle. What makes his work so great is that he's able to do all the ridiculous special effect, comedy and logic in comic/cartoon/anime and make it work in live action, hes also able to balance the touching and emotional part with comedy so well. I really hope one day he gets to direct an anime adapted movie with the quality of special effect hollywood big budget movie has. I think if there were a OnePunchMan live action movie I really hope they get him to direct, even if they dont get him to direct the entire movie at least have him be a co-director or a consultant. Considering how so many martial artist actors liek jackie chan, jet li and donnie yen is now known in hollywood, its such a shame that prolific directors from hongkong has not really had a break through in adapting their directing style into hollywood movies, not that it became just another hollywood movie, but to begin with I wish at least hey could have a special effectteam that has done big budget hollywood movie. Imagine if Kungfu hustle had better special effects.

Add Love on Delivery on the list of Stephen Chow films. I love SS and KFH but to me they're not even the peak of his comedy genius.

one of the greats. I'm telling you Mel, The Good the Bad and the Weird

You gotta watch “A Chinese Odyssey” Part 1 & 2. Definitely one of Stephen Chow’s best works.

As a Chinese growing up watching Stephen Chow's comedies, here are the films Chow directed and acted that I recommand besides Kung Fu Hustle and Shaolin Soccer: The God of Cookery(1996) - Classic Chow's style comedy, lower class, hilarious battle, love and Kung Fu From Beijing with Love(1994) - My personal favorite, Chow's version of James Bond King of Comedy(1999) - Kind of like an autobiography of Chow as a comedian, how he climbed from bottom to top As a one-of-a-kind comedian actor, Chow also delivered many great comedies working with other directors, and here are a few I recommand: God of Gamblers II(1990) Tricky Brains(1991) - Master of pranks Fight Back to School(1991) Sixty Million Dollar Man(1995) Some films like Royal Tramp(1992) and Flirting Scholar(1993) are rewritten from Chinese ancient stories, and also funny as hell.

Haha, I'm glad you gave this one a shot too! I remember watching this back with my whole class back in 2001 when this came out. Our class adviser treated us. He was one of the leaders of our high school soccer varsity team and during that time this movie was the hypest shit in theaters so after watching some students from our class and other sections joined the soccer varsity team. That was the case for other schools too. This movie was just that dope. No one was prepared for how ridiculous it was. It was like a breath of fresh air. So happy you've seen both Stephen Chow's most acclaimed movies. You might want to see Scott Pilgrim as well if you haven't seen that yet. It's directed by Edgar Wright. In some sense it has the same-ish quirky humor and action packed ass kickery as Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle. Cheers my man

Hitting play now. I hope you loved it!

This movie is amazing! I first saw it when I was in a Family Video and saw a trailer for it on the tv's they had set up. Immediate rental and I've loved Stephen Chow ever since.

Fight back to school, God of Cookery, Hail the Judge and Flirting Scholar .. instant classic

Stephen Chow likes to work with a lot of the same actors (Hong Kong camaraderie), and even the character tropes get recycled. Like that woman at 17:44, she's actually a cross-dressing man who often appears in Chow's movies pretending to be ladylike while doing some kind of disgustingly funny thing.

Ehi, leaving a comment for the algorithm: loved the reaction. Re-watching this movie after so many years it feels nostalgic AF, so it gladdens me to see someone watching it for the first time and enjoying it so much.

The Mermaid is Fantastic and Journey To The West is well made, at least for the first 2 acts. Both are Stephen Chow Films

I remember back in school playing soccer. There's serious kung fu stuff happening in there but we just brush it off despite the hits and focused in winning unlike in the professional league lol. Seriously, this is a good reaction video and Kung Fu Hustle & Shaolin Soccer are the best movies for me either. 🤣

I still listen to this soundtrack to get hyped sometimes.

it's actually way funnier if you understand cantonese, a lot of the jokes were lost in translation like in 10:55, he told him "to not insult the shaolin martial arts anymore" instead of "you should learn shaolin instead"

As for the "this must have inspired a lot of anime" it's probably the other way around. There's a quite famous anime from the 80s called Captain Tsubasa who was about soccer and some moments in the movie resemble it quite a lot. Now, I'm don't know if Chow did saw that series, but somebody in his crew must have.

That opening though XD.

Love how you said that you weren't going to watch the movie in dub. I definitely appreciate that as I do the same for both Anime AND MOvies

I was in China from 10 to 20 years old. When I was 12 I actually met the girl that played the love interest in this movie. Her English was terrible but she was pretty cool. Three days in the city we'd moved to and my dad got asked to play a Russian in a mini series they were shooting in the area. She played a secretary. Funny thing is, they didn't bother to tell us the name of the series. We've never seen it. 20 years later and my dad still occasionally gets recognized by Chinese people as the Russian diplomat from that one mini series. If there are any Chinese people reading this, the series is about some diplomatic talks between Russia and China that happened in Yunnan in the 50s or 60s. I don't remember what they said the talks were about or why they were in Yunnan.

Another great comedy movie is All’s Well , Ends Well. Stephen Chow is in it, along with other famous HK stars, like Leslie Cheung, Raymond Wong, Maggie Cheung, Sandra Ng, and Teresa Mo. You’ll love it too!
