“Never put on your iron vest when I hit you!  Your punishment:  no dinner!”

Fang Shi-Jie (Chou) was orphaned as an infant, abandoned by a basketball court.  Raised in a martial arts school, Jie has terrific accuracy when throwing objects, but not a great deal of respect for the new masters of the school.  When he falls in with a con-man named Li (Tsang) who attempts to use his skills scamming people in darts games, they attract the attention of local gangsters and get Jie thrown out of school.  But Li’s next endeavor shows more promise:  he enters Jie into First University, where Jie quickly takes up basketball and uses his throwing skills as a kung fu slam dunk champion.

KUNG FU DUNK mixes special effects, humor and even some romance to create a fast-paced and charming action-comedy.
