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 Tang: Pay no attention to Wimp Lo, we purposely trained him wrong... as a joke.

Crazy credits
Outtakes from the film (some real, some faked) play through the first couple minutes of the credits.

Alternate versions
Uses footage from The Savage Killers (1976) with actors digitally inserted into original scenes, and new dialogue overdubbed.

Connections

Needs to be watched in the right mind-set

I first saw Kung-Pow on DVD with friends who had seen it in the theater and loved it. But they said that people had been walking out of the theater, lots of people. Despite this, I still watched. Everyone around me knew the jokes, and knew when to laugh. I quickly picked up on Oedekerk's sense of humor in this movie, and I ended up loving the movie. If it hadn't been for my friends, I could easily see myself hating this movie too.

There are so many things that seem like mistakes, but are done *on purpose* by Oedekirk. If it looks like a mistake, it's probably a joke. After all, it is a spoof type movie.
