	Stephen Chow (Steven Chow) biography
		Chow continued to spoof other popular movies, such as Swordsman with Royal Tramp, and also did somewhat more serious fare with movies based on folk tales and heroes, as with Flirting Scholar and King of Beggars.
		Stephen Chow is now in the envious position in the Hong Kong movie industry of only having to do one or two movies a year in order to keep in a public's eye (many stars appear in as many as a dozen films a year).
		Like his comedic style, Stephen Chow seems something that is unique to Hong Kong movies and something which would (and could) only be featured there.

	Guardian Unlimited Film \| Interviews \| Chop and change
		Stephen Chow has thrown everything he loves about movies into his new film.
		Chow is the writer, director and putative star of Kung Fu Hustle, possibly the most hare-brained martial arts movie ever made.
		Chow conquered his home territory by playing squarely to local tastes, but if his films are anything to go by, those tastes are generally coarse, crude, broad, and to western eyes, frequently just plain wrong.

	Kaiju Shakedown: STEPHEN CHOW GETS A DATE (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Stephen Chow, who makes movies far too slowly for my taste, has announced that KUNG FU HUSTLE 2 is on hold (thank goodness) while he goes into production on A HOPE, his sci-fi movie.
		And, despite how much potential for going wrong there is in the idea of a Stephen Chow sci-fi film about father/son bonding with a little alien kid, I'm more interested in seeing something new from Chow rather than a sequel.
		After all, Stephen Chow has always had the knack for taking "almost too zany to be good" concepts and making them click.

	[KFCC] Forbidden City Cop Review
		Unfortunately, when all but one are killed, that one survivor happens to be Fat (Stephen Chow), the runt of the litter who only kept his membership of the group due to his family.
		Stephen Chow is on top form, crossing the language barrier by way of his expressive face and ability to fall over at just the right moment.
		The only criticism that could possibly be aimed at this film is that it is typical Stephen Chow stuff, and similar to some of his other movies, but that would be like complaining that Bruce Lee always pulls the same angry face.

	Actor Index
		Chow is all to willing to use any comic device in his large arsenal — and he relentlessly peppers his films with a non-stop barrage of parodies, puns, slapstick, sight gags, songs, verbal banter, insults, sarcasm, irony, sexual innuendoes, toilet humor and anything else that comes to mind.
		Like Keaton, Chow often maintains a completely straight face in the midst of total anarchy, portrays an innocent or a country bumpkin who is taken advantage of by others, is the underdog who somehow manages to succeed through luck or unexpected skills and yearns for the seemingly unobtainable female object of his desire.
		Chow does break out of this mold of course from time to time — though if he starts out on top it is just a matter of time before he is humbled and made more human.

	CJ7 \| The A.V. Club
		Chow has been moving steadily closer to the background since his 1999 film The King Of Comedy, and in CJ7, he takes a supporting role as a desperately poor dad who wants better things for his son (played by a girl, first-timer Jiao Xu).
		Chow's strict moral guidelines have made a deep impression on Xu, who claims to want to grow up to be "a poor person," because they're proud and honest.
		But while Chow is killing himself to send Xu to a classy private school, he can't afford new clothes, shoes, or the latest robot toy popular among Xu's preening classmates.

	Murda MovieZ
		Stephen Chow Ã¨ un operaio con figlio a carico.
		Non condivido per niente il giudizio che i miei colleghi hanno espresso altrove, trovo altresÃ¬ che questo Chow sia quello che a livello di regia e composizione dell'immagine ci regali le piÃ¹ alte soddisfazioni.
		Basterebbe dire che Stephen Chow riesce a inquadrare le scarpe in modo sistematico senza diventare ridicolo e damsesco per affermare tutto il suo valore, e tutto il valore di questo film, basterebbe ricordarsi che riesce a mettere in scena una resurrezione senza la pretesa di volerla filmare.

	Kung Fu Hustle Widescreen Edition 2005 Starring Stephen Chow Wah Yuen
		But after these martial artists repulse the gang with their flying fists and feet, the gang leader hires a pair of assassins, whose arrival leads to the unveiling of more secrets, until both the screen and the audience are dizzy with hyperbolic fight artistry (choreographed by Yuen Wo Ping, who also choreographed The Matrix).
		Weaving through this escalating fury is a loudmouthed loser (writer/director/actor Stephen Chow) who suddenly finds he having to live up to his bragging.
		Chow's hero is a loser who always falls in love with a poor girl, innocent and trusting.

	Stephen Chow at Hollywood.com
		Chow spent the next six years on the program developing his now famous style of verbal puns called âmo lei tauâ, or ânonsense talk.â Now a cult slang among Hong Kongâs youth culture, âmo lei tauâ involved the use of obscure jokes and ambiguous non-sequiturs.
		Chow solidified his popularity with spoofs on classic Hong Kong cinema, which include âKing of Beggarsâ (1992), âThe Royal Trampâ series (1992), two sequels to âFight Back to Schoolâ (1992-3), and âThe Fighting Scholarâ (1993), a martial arts take on a Chinese musical, co-starring mainland actress Gong Li.
		Chow even participated in a march to prove his innocence, but the effort went for naught: in 2001, Chow was denied Canadian residency on the grounds of his alleged criminal connections.
