Sai show

What I really hated: everytin else

I watched this show coz normally sports shows ignite ur enthusiasm for the game, what's more its abt my fav sport here. 'The Replacements' n 'The Longest Yard' makes me wanna play rugby even though I dunno how, 'The Air Up There' n 'Coach Carter' makes me wanna shoot some hoops. Even The Mighty Ducks' makes me wanna do somtin (anytin) wif a hockey stick. This muz b the first sports show which dun do it for me. I'm abt to write a whole list of criticism for this show.. but I tink I wun coz enuff of my time hav been wasted on watchin it le. What I hate most abt the movie is that it portrays bball players as arrogant pricks who do fancy stunts n still win games. Playin wif the general public for years, I can't say I've never met some of these stunt freaks b4. But i can assure u that more than 95% of e players out there r nice pple who dun do belittling stunts on their opponents juz to show off their skills. All I can say is that this movie is a vehicle for Jay's ego, notin else. Anyone who tinks otherwise is probably a hardcore Jay fan who din play bball b4. Oh ya, e system die die also wan me to giv one star so i no choice.. but e one star for actin is well deserved. Jay can really act - act seh n act cute.

Kung Fu Dunk

What I loved most: Jay Chou and his superb basketball acts, Very touching storyline, Good choice of songs and actors, T

After Jay's "Secret", another outstanding show by Jay which again proves his talent in music, interest in basketball and martial arts. A humble actor who outshines all the rest in the show. His martial arts is not exaggerating and Jay has put it off so well. A very down to earth show but has a lot of meaning in terms of kinship and friendship. Most importantly, the cast has paired off so well with Jay. Believe it a not, Jay has reserved the original vocal of the cast and it just feels so natural and heart-warming, esp the last PART of the show, you will be touched. The same feeling after I have watched "Secret". Its the best CNY movie so far. Believe it or not, this is really a "Jay Chou" movie, as talented as he can be..It is his movie.

CHEAP JAY CHOU

I just dunno, I hate expressionless Jay Chou. He is like Chien Ta. In hokkien Kiam Pak. In English Looking for a Slap in his Face. I just dunno why he got into acting. He just can't even act. Don't go to his next movie. All I can say, he's CHEAP

Don't bother

What I loved most: B-ball slamming

What I really hated: Jay Chou as the star

If you have compared Initial D and Kungfu Dunk, you'll find the character for Jay Chou suited him to a T - Takumi, a dull and bored character who didn't even know he was driving at high-speed; only being concerned with delivering Tofu. For this it's....what's the morale of the story???
