I saw this movie for one reason alone - Christopher Walken

Rating: 4/10 (17 September 2007)

I knew going into the theater after seeing the previews that this was going to be a stupid movie. How could one NOT know? Look at the title people! Don't go complaining about it if you're not smart enough to figure out a ping-pong comedy was going to be stupid.
What wasn't stupid, however, was Christopher Walken. He did an awesome job, though he always does an awesome job. I'm pretty sure all they did to get Christopher Walken to play this part was show him the wig he'd be wearing and an outfit or two and said "the movie is about ping-pong" and he went "Okay, I'm in!" That exactly how I image it, because Christopher Walken is awesome enough to do something like that and still do a great job at a stupid role.
My favorite part of this movie, however, is the panda bear. Christopher Walken as Feng takes the moronic hero into his den of evil ping-pong memorabilia then comments that he got a panda, but thinks it's dead, because he could not figure out how to feed it. Later one of the male sex slaves runs back into the soon to be exploded compound to save the panda, only to run out a few minutes later and comment that the bear was already dead, poor panda.
