Half a Loaf of Kung Fu

Half a Loaf of Kung Fu

1978, Movie, 1h 37min

Like a live-action comic book, this antic farce lets Jackie Chan, choreographing his own fight sequences, cut loose with a wild parody of the martial-arts genre. He plays a bumbling wannabe kung-fu master who, when he assumes the identity of a dead hero, finds himself embroiled in a series of absurd misadventures and the search for a pair of mystical artifacts. Cartoon sound effects and send-ups of everything from Popeye to JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR are part of the lighthearted fun—not to mention Chan fighting a bald adversary with his own wig!
