Shaolin Soccer (- Soccer) + Dodgeball + Ping Pong + Enter the Dragon = Balls of Fury

Rating: Null/10 (29 December 2007)

One of those which you will either love or hate, by that rationale then it's 5/10 status on IMDb is just about right.
A ridiculous premise stolen straight from Enter the Dragon involves an underground ping pong tournament being infiltrated by the FBI. Now the word 'tournament' is used rather loosely here as what transpires is a series of sight gags and plot twist which dispells with logic entirely and goes straight for the funny bone. The tournament becomes a back drop for Chinese themed jokes, everything from the wise master to sex slaves; Christopher Walken having a blast as Feng, Maggie Q kickin' ass (as usual) and our looser hero making good to the sound of Def Leopard.
Balls of Fury is absurd comedy in the same league as Shaolin Soccer and Dodgeball, and sits quite comfortably beside them as an emerging genre of wacky sports comedy. If you have a stomach for the ridiculous, enjoy seeing Chinese clichés parodied to the max, and find Christopher Walken amusing, than this is for you.
Final mention to Jason Scot Lee, a great comedy performance and should be utilised more often.
