Although based upon the manga “Slam Dunk”, “Kung Fu Dunk” is basically an attempt to emulate the success of Hong Kong comedy megastar Stephen Chow’s smash hit “Shaolin Soccer”. A vehicle for popster/actor/director Jay Chou, the film gives him a chance to combine his passions for basketball and martial arts, with director Kevin Chu Yen Ping (known for commercial hits such as “Young Policemen in Love” and “Flying Dagger”) doing his best to lay on the usual Lunar New Year style comedy shenanigans.
The film follows Jay Chou as Fang Shi Jie, a young man who was found abandoned near a basketball court as a baby and who grew up in a mystical though wacky martial arts school. While lounging around the street one night amusing himself by throwing empty cans into rubbish bins, he catches the leering eye of trickster Zhen Li (Eric Tsang, in full-on hyperactive bumbling idiot mode), who attempts to milk money from him by turning his considerable kung fu skills to basketball. Marketing him with a bizarre sob story about his being a ‘basketball orphan’, Li manages to shove him rather ungraciously into a top university team where he quickly becomes a star. Soon enough he is knee deep in trouble as he and his new friends head for a show down with a particularly nasty rival team, while matters are further complicated by his half-hearted efforts to win the heart of the team mascot (Charlene Choi in a nothing role).
