I'm posting this for discussion. Yeah, its funny, but unfortunately, it's probably funny because so much is so close to the truth. Anyway, as Taekwondoin, what do you think?

As you said much of it rings true not only with in TKD but in all martial arts organizations and schools

I don't know anything about it. I got it over e-mail this morning and laughed my butt off. Hopefully, I'll be able to find some things out from this thread...

Here's a bit longer trailer. If you don't like cursing, don't watch it ...

Puts me in mind of, like, Reno 911 and such.

I will definately own this one I'll put it right next to Kung Pow!

 

[arnisador]

It's gotten reasonable reviews.

The feel of the film in the way that it was shot looked/felt a lot like another cult classic "Napoleon Dynamite" and that was a funny flick. So probably worth a look see.

Definitely within the Kung Pow, Kung Fu Hustle, Shaolin Soccer realm of MA-Comedies.

I don't mind cursing as long as it's used properly in context. The amount and manner in which the language was used here in the trailer gave an indication of the amount throughout the film, which would make it very inappropriate for younger audiences which is sad because it looks to be a fun film to watch.
Basically overdid it as far as the script writing of the dialog.

I guess they're just trying to rub your face in the fact that Simmon's character is one really, REALLY coarse guy!

You can tell, subtlety isn't going to be the strong suit in this film :lol:...

Yep. They freaking blew it! This would have been a MUCH better film without the bad language! (Again, *IF* that trailer is any indication of what the film is like).

Anyway, I have now signed up for "Fred's weekly inspirational note", haha!

Interesting, one of the "other videos that you might like if you liked this one" is:

The Human Stun Gun

A Master of the Mysterious Dim-Mak Poison Hand Touch-o-Death action at a distance!!!

Yeah, I've got 4 kids in TKD who won't be seeing this one due to the language, unfortunately.

I am with you Jim with three young boys this is a movie I do not want them to see.

It looks great, and pretty close to the truth in some respects from what little I know......I like the part with the old lady and the guy that knocks her out.....it's a trip!!!!

There are other videos on youtube about this -- one where the actor Will Ferrell says that this was the funniest stuff he has ever seen.

There is one scene where the main character, who is the Demo King, gets ready to break a board with the spinning hook kick. Predictably, he does the same tired, OLD joke about "You people in the front row over there might want to watch out.", as he sets up in such a way that the board would obviously fly and hit them. Then of course, he repositions it, saying, "No, we won't do that."

I'm telling you, I have personally met some teachers (NO, NOT MINE!) who are eerily similar to this character! They can be contemptible. In the old days, well... they would, shall we say, have a change of attitude???

 

[SageGhost83]

Hilarious movie! I would love to go see it, myself. Definitely not one for the kids, though. Funny, yet sad because it is not too far off from the actual practices of lot of the strip mall mcdojangs.

 

[Windsinger]

I started watching, thinking, "This looks somewhat amusing."

Then the trailer got to, "I don't think you're going to like how this ends, hotshot." I haven't laughed that hard at MA-based physical humour since They Call Me Bruce! I have got to see more!
