Absolutely amazing
Robert Joyner
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

There really is only one way to enjoy Kung Fu Rascals, and that is with several friends who appreciate Asian films and while drinking. Anything else will leave you with an inferior Rascals experience.The laughs during the first 2/3rds of the film were frequent and loud; while the film drags during the end (a fight between two absurd sand-giants) the campy, ridiculous dialogue and ludicrous overacting make this a crowd pleaser. Raspmutant the Pig monk. Bamboo Man. A queer kung fu fighter named Dar Ling. Chicken-fu. Explosive farts. Les Claypool as a wicked sheriff. Toupee torture. A gingerbread man who holds the key to power most big. If you're still not jonesing to see this film, I cannot help you.Did I mention the budget for this film was likely under $30,000? No? Oh, you'll see...Recommended, but again, friends and mind altering substances are probably essential for enjoyment of Kung Fu Rascals.

My mate told me of this film and in a moment of madness i Ordered it from america and had it shipped over.HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMIts a weird one this film..... watching it seems like an episiode of power rangers on acid (and looking in to the directors past its not supprizing to see that he did indeed direct a few power rangers productions).
While watching it with my mate he was gutting himself with laughter a certain points , which while mildly ammusing wherent as funny as I was lead to believe by his high regard of the film.truth is only a few things are all that good..but those few make this movie
*WEE SPOILER HERE SO DONT READ THIS BIT IF U DONT WANT TO*1. the lighting of the fart at point bank range..so unexpected 2. Any of the scenes with the "not exactly hertosextual" kung-fu student esp the kicking scene near the end. 3. the main bad guy (the sherif) and the master thief.. these two seem to be real kung-fu fighters as the battle between them is fluidic and like watching a jackie chan fight sequence.. that is highly coreographed (cant spell).* OKIES U CAN LOOK NOW*
one other thing is the film tends to drag at the end..and also the ending gives the idea that there is more to come...but there is nothing more...i would think this film is like a pilot for a series that was never made.

Back in the early - mid 90's, my friends and I came across this little flick that soon became all the rave for our little cult of viewing pleasure. This movie is without a doubt a must see for any person who is into the old Hong Kong Kung Fu movies that I had grown up on watching late at night on the local mandarin channel (Midnight Kung Fu Theatre, baby!).
This movie is all about laughs, do not take it seriously as a "Kung Fu" flick... it's more of a spoof of asian films. I would say this movie is made up of three mixes. It's part Jacky Chan, part Godzilla and part American Westerns. This movie is incredibly funny for those who have are in the mood for childish humor, and have an understanding of asian cinema.

This movie is sooooooo bad.....but that part when the bad guys are torturing Lou-Z and start cutting up his toupee is just too funny--I could not stop laughing!! You gotta see it, just for that part alone!
