Ping-pong parody is a real stinker
Related Articles
27 December 2007
Ther are some passable gags in this silly comedy about a table-tennis prodigy (Dan Fogler from Good Luck Chuck) who is assigned by the FBI to infiltrate a ping-pong contest run by crime boss Christopher Walken. But not nearly enough.
In fact, this is a horrendously written and acted movie which even Walken can't save. Maggie Q, George Lopez and James Hong certainly can't, either. And the running gag about blindness is just impermissible.
