Having been rather disappointed by Stephen Chow's 'Shaolin Soccer' my expectations for KFH were not that high, but this is a vastly superior film.
The merging of comedy and action is nothing new but few films manage to combine the two so successfully. The film is full of stunning set pieces, great slapstick and numerous homages to many different films. What cinema was made for.
This film has it all from start to end, comedy, action, great effects and even a touch of romance in it. Well choreographed and deserves good praise. Not my sort of film but i would enjoy in watching this film again.
