    I saw this movie last night, and I must say I was pretty impressed. Very funny movie in my opinion. But there are so many haters on here I don't know what to expect from you guys ;)

    I first thought that was fake. Honestly, it looks horrible. Didn't they already make a similarly bad movie like this, Balls of Fury?

    Don't be mistaken by the trailer, it's no where near the best movie ever or anything. But if you have some free time, want a good laugh I suggest it.

    I believe that this is one of the few movies that you can watch directly from the computer.

    There was definitely a thread about this once, I know I started one. I remember I was defending this movie even though I never bothered to watch it.

    Maybe if the main black character talk with an Asian accent.

    I think my high school production team can do better.

    I watched the movie because someone on Clutchfans said it was good. I actually thought it was a pretty good movie and I would recommend it to anyone who doesn't take movies too seriously.

    Its not great, its not good, but its not bad

    Its your pretty normal outcast becomes hero story, it stereotypes asians in a way

    Parents are pushing the main character to be "successful" like his brother and his parents are comparing him to their friend's successful sons/daughters

    the part where CDub asked the little kid about his sister if she was one of that asians that "like white guys" (I laughed at this)

    with that said, its a tossup if I'd recommend it or not

    it avail in Netflix for Instant Viewing, I watched it on my 360

    Well, almost all the trailer was terrible save that one last line by that white chick. That was funny.
