Balls of Fury Reviews
This is an extremely silly movie, and I don't have no trouble with silly as long as it's funny, but that's where things go south.
| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jan 31, 2021
Does low-brow comedy really get much better? Well, yeah, fortunately it does.
| Original Score: 2.0/4.0 | Sep 2, 2020
We are stuck with a below average film that Walken almost single-handedly carries to mediocrity -- a feat that is appreciated, but not enough to forgive Balls of Fury for its many faults.

A spoof on spy movies that generates few laughs but scores high for being bizarre.
| Original Score: C | Mar 30, 2017
On some subterranean level, it's a study of how celebrity agents can coerce a talented veteran actor into participating in one of the most painfully unfunny comedies ever made.

[Is it] good? Heavens, no. But it has its seedy charms.

Comedians like Will Ferrell, Jack Black and Ben Stiller can get away with lesser material because just looking at them can elicit laughs. Dan Fogler is not in that category.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jan 14, 2008
A horrendously written and acted movie which even Walken can't save.

A daft, disappointing comedy.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 28, 2007
This comedy raises the odd laugh, largely from an absurd appearance by Christopher Walken as a sinister martial-arts kingpin villain.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 28, 2007
It's a hodge-podge of Enter The Dragon and Blades Of Glory, yet infinitely worse than either. In short, a film about bouncing balls with the bounce of an anvil.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 28, 2007
Cut a ping-pong ball in half, draw a large black dot in the centre of each then carefully insert around your eye-sockets- you'll raise more laughs than this film manages.
| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Dec 28, 2007
Enter The Dragon meets Shaolin Soccer meets Dodgeball - just with infinitely smaller balls. A camp turn from Christopher Walken astounds but it'll be funnier if you wait for the DVD and lubricate it with a six-pack. Or three.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 28, 2007
CGI-assisted ping pong and lame gags about dead pandas, simpering homos and 'Antiques Roadshow'.
| Original Score: 1/6 | Dec 28, 2007
Balls of Fury isn't quite as funny as it thinks it is, but there are some good gags and it's worth seeing for Christopher Walken's performance.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 27, 2007
Bad acting, writing and jokes... Apart from a few funny gags that save this from one-star ignominy.
