I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

I saw someone do a movie review on this video on a website and I looked everywhere to find this movie. I couldn't find it. So one day I was at a yard sale and saw they had this video on VHS. I bought it, though I had a DVD player, not a VCR. So I went to three different electronic stores and got to best buy. They only had a VCR connected to a TV. The TV was 400 dollars. This was in 2001 when VCRS were out dated and shitty TV's were a lot of money, ANYWAY, I bought it and saw the video. I was stunned. If you saw this movie you would know what I mean. Its old so right off the bat I loved it. I'm into that stuff. Also this movie is hands down one of the best movies I have seen. It has that old 1970's "Kung Fu" stylized action. And I just enjoyed every minute of this video. So I would like to thank James Rofle for recommending this movie.

It blows my mind how people can generally slate movies like this...If you rent or buy a movie with the title "King Kung Fu" that should be a good implication that this movie shouldn't be taken seriously.I mean, you're going to watch a film about a Gorilla who knows Kung Fu, you should know by now that it's hardly gonna be Oscar nominated material.Films like these should be praised not knocked. It's a no nonsense approach to the consumer, it lets you know exactly what the films about straight from the title.This is one of those films that.. say you're lying in bed, late at night, watching TV, channel flicking and you came across this movie, you'd sit though it and maybe fall for its charms of being absolutely daft.Believe me, I've seen a lot worse than "King Kung Fu" and would pick this movie ahead of some of the over budgeted movies we see today and have in recent years.If it wasn't for films like "King Kung Fu" our memory's of B-movie nostalgia would not exist.So... Long Live Nostalgia!

This movie was made 33 years ago so it was not going to have great visuals like what we are used to today in more modern movies. The film has its funny moments but most of its just so slapstick that its not funny. Its hard to describe the humor of the film. Over acting is one of the funniest things to watch over and over again. B-movies sometimes are funny and this one is one of those types of films. There are lots of other factors that contribute to the film be watchable but it is something that you have to be in the mood to watch. I'm not sure if King Kong Fu was supposed to a comedy or a action flick. Its an odd combination of about three different movie genres.

This extremely silly, flimsy and overlong send-up of both the horrendous '76 "King Kong" remake and the then hot 70's kung fu craze relates the inane tale of a chortling, deep-voiced chopsocky Chinese gorilla who runs amok in Wichita, Kansas and the obnoxious opportunistic aspiring newscaster who exploits the ape in order to further his reporting career. Writer/director/co-star Lance D. Hayes misses the bull's eye more often than he hits it with his broad, sprawling, wildly erratic satiric potshots at such once faddish, but now hopelessly passé targets as streaking, John Wayne, America's newfound amicable relationship with China, Howard Cosell and spaghetti westerns, thereby ensuring that this strictly middling affair doesn't even come close to acquiring the infectiously goofy charm of the Me Decade's two greatest blockbuster picture parodies "Hardware Wars" and "Closet Cases of the Nerd Kind." However, the scenes with the gorilla beating people up whenever it breaks out with plenty of fancy strenuous slow-motion martial arts moves and the judiciously used stop-motion animation effects are the authentic gnarly article. But overall this flick sizes up as a very dumb, dated and hence instantly forgettable timewaster.
