Balls of Fury
We were looking for a stupid movie. I was a little disappointed that this one wasn’t “stupider”. It had some moments, and don’t ask me why but, I like Christopher Walken. He’s so damned weird.
The movie is all about a former child ping pong star whose dad got killed by the oriental mafia for not paying off bets (on his son the ping pong champ). Our hero never plays ping pong again, however, he is like a circus act in a small club doing ping pong tricks.
The FBI elicits his help (yes, that’s fairly common for the FBI to seek help from former ping pong champions). In order for him to help he will, of course, have to enter a ping pong tournament.
You know the rest. I wanted way more stupid. Airplane stupid. Dodge Ball stupid. Naked Gun stupid. There was only a bit. But the movie was enjoyable and inane.
Rent it if you’re feeling like ‘a little stupid’.

That’s just too bad. It’s been far too long since we’ve seen a “No, the *white* zone is for loading and unloading” type movie. lol.
It’s seems like even stupid-greats such as Adam Sandler and Jim Carey have given up on trying lately.
