What It Is: A comedy about a secretive underground ping-pong circuit.Why I Watched It: Christopher Walken.
What I Thought: Balls of Fury was much more fun than I expected!
Humor me enough to allow my math/logic mind yet another equation to represent this film...
Enter the Dragon - martial arts + ping-pong = Balls of Fury
Really. The film follows the same plot as Enter the Dragon, but uses a ping-pong tournament instead of a martial arts championship. Surprisingly, it works!
Highlights: Maggie Q is quite the cutie, Dan Fogler was a good lead, Jason Scott Lee was hilarious, the cameos were fun, and Christopher Walken was awesome!
Who Should See It: Fans of comedy sport movies (Dodgeball), Christopher Walken fans, and people that won't mind a parody of Enter the Dragon.
How Soon: When you need a good laugh.

i have to say i was pretty disappointed in this one. i had been excited to see it for months before it came out on dvd and finally watched it last night... i agree, i thought jason scott lee was friggin' hilarious in his small part, but overall i thought the movie was not that funny... i think i can safely say it won't find its way back in my dvd player anytime soon. dodgeball was much funnier. it just seemed to be one of those movies we all dread, those that show just about all the funny parts in the previews... though there were a few parts that had me cracking up... and of course, walken is always a treat.
