Lots of fun. I thought that the R rating was unwarranted -- there were a few scenes with a little blood, but Kill Bill this definitely isn't. My favorite bit was the guy with the jangly arm rings -- it made me think of all the local ladies with choke Hawaiian Heritage gold bracelets on each arm. Ho, maybe they're all actually secret kungfu masters. :D :D

Either dat or the following: Dance Hula, Drug Dealers, have husbands/boyfriends that sell drugs, have low self esteem and want to just show off by looking like one Christmas Tree....or a combination of any of the above. :eek:

Note: The well Hula Dancer will probably wear one -three small Hawaiian Bracelets, maximum. ;)

Big thumbs up from me on this movie too. Light-hearted and silly in a good way.

Man I loved this movie! The wife and I went to see it last Thursday for our official date nite before she left for the mainland for a few days. She sat through it acting disinterested but I saw her laugh a couple times (we take turns... I'll be forced to watch a girly movie next) :) . The fight scenes brought back memories of watching kung fu movies in Chinatown when I was a kid... with the exaggerated punching sound effects.

In this movie, you know all of the villians due to they are easy to spot. It's the heroes that are harder to spot.

The part that got me and the rest of audience laughing out loud was the scene where Sing (according to the credits, since I don't think his name is ever mentioned in the movie) and his friend attempting to throw the three knifes at the landlady. My side was hurting from the laughter.
