Kung Fu Boys

About This Movie

Kung Fu Boys is one of those quirky gems from 2016 that mixes action, adventure, and comedy in a surprisingly engaging way. The story follows a troubled kid from the US who is sent to live with his uncle in China. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it has this whimsical charm that carries it through. You have this kid navigating a world of rabbit thieves and crushes while trying to fit in with classmates who are less than welcoming. The kung fu scenes are done with a practical flair that gives it a nice authenticity, and the performances bring a light-heartedness that makes the whole experience enjoyable. It’s definitely not your run-of-the-mill action flick, and its offbeat humor is something that might stick with you.
