I just felt it was so cheesey and seth rogan was such a GIMP in the film. Why were the writers such a dick to the chinese guy as well (some of it was borderline racism lol). They made him out to be a knob. Sorry but i LOVE it when comics get made into films, but this time I was sourly disappointed. I think it may have been the anticipation of this.

....and kung fu

and even if he didn't actively practice KF like he does, it would still be a kung fu flick. Stop being pedantic.

He doesn't do Kung Fu.

How is it a Kung Fu film if there is no Kung Fu in it? It's a martial arts film.

There are probably elements of kung fu in it. Tony Jaa grew up trying to emulate Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan etc.

It could well be if the Chinese came up with unarmed combat before anyone else.

if you can see the similarities rather than the differences, you'd easily see it's all one thing.

that's why kung fu movies always have these crazy fictional styles that don't even exist
