Before that terrible piece of trash, Balls of Fury, was Ping Pong, a stylistically stunning piece of work that doesn't rely on special effects to get its great story across. Though at times, the male macho-ness becomes a bit overbearing, but you'll eventually find it's much bigger than that - it's about male social hierarchies and the benefits of knowing your place (and showing your place). It's about friends, protagonists, and the pursuit of happiness. Overall, highly entertaining and well directed. 8.3/10.
