    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Steve Oedekerk dubbed every actor except Jennifer Tung (Whoa), who dubbed herself.
    • Goofs
      When the Chosen One talks to his friends while they're wounded in the field, he has a tattoo saying "Mouth" with an arrow on his right cheek. The tattoo is given to him by an old man in a deleted torture scene, and can't be seen in any other scenes in the film.
    • Quotes

      Master Betty: I have been called bad before. Many have said I do things that are not correct to do. I don't believe in talk such as this. I am nice man, with happy feelings. All of the time. First, a joke. What do you get when you cross an owl with a bungee cord?

      [pause]

      Master Betty: My ass. Nyah, haha, haha, haha, ENOUGH.

      From Rusholme with Love

    'Enter' the theater and get ready to laugh!
    There's a good chance that when you saw the trailers and TV spots for this movie the first word that came to your mind was "stupid". Yes, this a stupid movie. It's one of the stupidest movies I have ever seen to be honest, but it is also one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. Up until I saw this movie earlier today, I hadn't seen one good movie in 2002 so I can say that this is the best move of 2002..so far. No jokes fall flat [except the gay henchman was sort of annoying at times], the action scenes are well done, and it's always a treat to see really bad movies get spoofed. ****
