BALLS OF Fury , Table Tennis Tournaments death

Randy Daytona (Dan Fogler) was a worker at a casino in Nevada. Randy life fall apart since he lost the match in table tennis at the Olympics in 1988. Randy not only lose the opportunity to be the best table tennis at that time, he should also lose his father is killed by a gangster group.

Randy the past this was a dismal draw attention Ernie Rodriguez (George Lopez), an FBI agent who is being chase Feng (Christopher Walken). Feng is a Mafia kingpin the underground table tennis tournament, which is responsible for the death of some participants.

To make sure Randy can play with the good, Ernie and Randy bring to China Town to 'act' in Wong (James Hong). With the help and keponakannya Maggie Wong (Maggie Q), Randy successfully won several local tournaments that attract immediate attention Feng.

Not long after Randy got any 'invitation' to participate in tournament play Feng death. Now Randy is not only trying to help FBI to disassemble Feng syndicate but also at the same time his father's murder mystery disassemble twelve years ago.

The idea combines kung fu with other sports presumably begins with the emergence of film SHAOLIN SOCCER around 2001 years ago. This film is quite successful in the market, and tempt people to make a Hollywood film with the theme of the film more or less the same. BALLS OF fury and this can be called the only successful attempt tail film SHAOLIN SOCCER and not give anything new to the audience.

Effect of the tail is very strong because the director and script writers do not even try to make this film feel so different. Although the type of sport that combined with the kung fu is the time table tennis and not football as in SHAOLIN SOCCER but only too obvious, if only this film mimics the same idea.

And with the increasing number of Hollywood films that highlight the life of the continent Asia, so this one feels a little boring and no longer feels fresh as when you first began to look west of Asia and seen as a commodity that can be sold. Parahnya again, the akting PLAYERS also not too good, unless of course Christopher Walken.
