Funny, there's a good chunk of Luna, relatively speaking -- more Luna than Neville, which is odd.
And I enjoyed Kung Fu Hustle very much -- I just thought its narrative was a bit muddled in the beginning and its characteristic Stephen Chow madness peaked a bit too soon. Soccer at least follows the traditional underdog sports film mold, and it's a much more forgiving gradient from "oh, well, that was a bit too much" to "all right, that was perfectly insane."
And I have to recommend non-dubbed versions. My experience with English dubs has soured me -- I don't think they catch the inflection and enthusiasm of the original actors.
