Stephen C LOL, the funniest 01 hour: and 36 minutes ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/02/22 Full Review Audience Member This movie unfortunately felt a lot longer than it actually was. Cheesy, with a brute-forced clichéd Chinese-kung-fu-plot and TV show-grade special effects like plasticky exploding rocks and really just lots of explosions where explosions did not belong. Did not age well but at least there were a few laughs. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Kocaknya nggak ketulungan.... Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Only occasionally funny. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member One of Chow's earliest, and it's really easy to see where his formula comes from upon viewing. Still, the man has a unique mind for comedy, and that's what really stands out with each of his goofball creations. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Prepare the unicorn smoke! A rich debutant meets the love of his life shortly after a bar fight. She wants him to learn martial arts and enter a fight tournament; surprisingly, he wins the tournament despite fighting a local legend. Unfortunately, part of winning leads to him losing his social status, all his money, and maybe the girl. The beggar joins a new group and attempts to bring down a ruthless overload who is fighting his way to power. "I will support you, including money for hookers." Gordon Chan, director of Kung Fu Master, Painted Skin, Fist of Legend, 18 Golden Destroyers, The King of Fighters, and Mr. 3 Minutes, delivers The King of Beggars. The storyline for this picture had a lot of potential and fit perfectly into the genre. The comedic content was a bit overdone and the martial arts was just okay. The acting was average for the genre and the cast includes Stephen Chow, Sharla Cheung, Norman Chu, Wai Lam, and Wai Yee Chan. "Your stance is strong, but you look awful." King of Beggars is a movie I grabbed and was hoping it would be on par with Drunken Master; unfortunately, this was a dramatic drop-off from what I expected. This is an above average martial arts picture with some great lines but wasn't as good as I had hoped. I recommend seeing this only if you're a diehard fan of the genre. "Beggars are people too!"
