06/26/2010 There were some pretty impressive martial arts scenes in this flick, and ultimately with a movie like this, that's what you come to see. However, I do like it when there's at least -something- in the way of a plot to keep my interest. Whether it's something utterly insane like, say "Battle Wizard," or something more pedestrian, it's nice to have some sort of explanation as to why all these people are beating the crap out of each other. Well, beyond the fact that they just happened to pass one another on the road. It sounds weird to say it, but in a way there's almost too much kung fu in this. There's rarely much of a pause between one fight/training scene and the next, and after awhile it almost starts getting tiresome. Too much of a good thing, as the saying goes. "Of Cooks and Kung Fu" is definitely a fun movie for awhile, but I personally would have preferred at least an occasional reprieve from the action, in the interests of keeping it fresh.

See more 11/23/2009 Pretty standard story of a boy being kung-fu talented yet in need of that valuable lesson of discipline to put him over the top, though the cookery twist makes it stand out a bit! Also, bizarre, inconsistent soundtrack (at one point you hear a weird clipped cover of "Blackbird" in the context of someone having a black eye and at another point pretty sure you hear part of the Jaws theme song).
