Predicable. Mindless. Groin Kick. These words pretty much sum up the movie "Balls of Fury". That's not to say it was ALL bad. I liked satirical-feel the movie had, making fun of Kung Fu movies and such. Unfortunately they don't Predicable. Mindless. Groin Kick. These words pretty much sum up the movie "Balls of Fury". That's not to say it was ALL bad. I liked satirical-feel the movie had, making fun of Kung Fu movies and such. Unfortunately they don't pull it off. Watch "Kung Pow" for a stupid comedy in that genre. My friend and I laughed hysterically in one part of "BoF", where this blond chick kept making these weird faces behind the back of a Russian player. That, however, was inadvertent humor, so it doesn't even count. This is a "watch-on-the-web-for-free" movie.… Expand

I hate to say it but this movie was just plain crap. Did you all see the trailer because that was all the funny parts and they were not that funny. The worst part is you can tell when a joke is made and see it is intended to be funny but you I hate to say it but this movie was just plain crap. Did you all see the trailer because that was all the funny parts and they were not that funny. The worst part is you can tell when a joke is made and see it is intended to be funny but you just wont laugh. Plus Christopher Walken seems sotned or just borred through out the movie. And Dan frougles part was obviously ment for jack black and i can see why he didnt want it. i never really HATE movies but i do this one. Offical grade F.… Expand

So unfunny and poorly made it actually made me angry for the rest of the day. Something no other film has done to me before. The lead character has no business being in a studio film or any film at all and I hope this is the last the So unfunny and poorly made it actually made me angry for the rest of the day.

Despite the poor reviews, as a former ping-pong addict, I was willing to pluck down $10 to see this movie. Don't bother. The laughs were very very few and worse yet, not enough ping-pong. The script and one-liners were really stupid. Despite the poor reviews, as a former ping-pong addict, I was willing to pluck down $10 to see this movie. Don't bother.

Ridiculously intricate plot details and overly dramatized action sequences spoil what would be an otherwise decent comedy flick. Jack Black would have been better in the role of Randy Daytona.

Wow, That anyone would even give this movie anything more than a zero is proof of why the state of this entertainment medium is in the shape its in.

This movie could have been directed by a 2 year old for all I know. I rented this for my 14 year old daughter and she walked away after 10 minutes. She usually will watch just about anything. Christ, she even sat through another gem (Not) "I now pronounce you Chuck & Larry". Now believe me that is proof of how pathetically bad this movie is. What was Christopher Walken thinking?? My guess is he wasn't.… Expand

The reason why I saw this was because, well, it was for a club movie night. I paid no money for this and was glad I didn't, but it was somewhat in the loosest sense of the word, entertaining. It wasn't great, it wasn't good, and it's just one of those movies, one of those movies that gets spewed out month after month with really nothing new. As for myself, I await a movie that will stir me. One of those movies is "The Dark Knight".… Expand

"He actually died." "What part about sudden death did you not get." That is the only funny line in the whole movie, and it isn't very funny anyways, its just a little giggle and thats it. Everything else is stupid. The Ping Pong "He actually died." "What part about sudden death did you not get." That is the only funny line in the whole movie, and it isn't very funny anyways, its just a little giggle and thats it. Everything else is stupid. The Ping Pong sequences are appealing, but nothing else is. It could have been better, I just don't see how it can be a comedy when it should be a thriller. I found it quite boring, it is nothing special, and it sucked. Its crappy, the acting was bad (decides Christopher Walken's), all the humor is in the trailer, but after watching the trailer how many times. All the funny stuff isn't funny, because you've seen it a billion times. Anyways, I found it very disappointing because after our great Nacho Libre, Balls of Fury I figured was the same kind of type. But it ended out being dull, pointless, unrealistic, stupid movie.… Expand

Yeah this movie was amazingly unfunny. It's not that I was expecting anything other than a dumb comedy either, but there was no comedy to speak of. It was just dumb and I'm a sucker for stupid laughs. I can't stress enough how Yeah this movie was amazingly unfunny.

Except for a brief laugh at about the ten minute mark, I watched Balls of Fury in stunned silence, shocked at just how remarkably unfunny it was.

At least twice my mouth was agape in utter disbelief at how a particular scene or snippet of dialogue made it to the screen without someone, somewhere, at some point of the process having the sense, and sense of humor, to revise or get rid of it. I mean there are talented and funny actors in the movie. Were they all just picking up paychecks? Possibly the worst movie of the young millenium, and a real textbook example of how NOT to do comedy. The one star is for the one laugh, but I think it deserves more like a half or a quarter star.… Expand
