Shaolin was an art practiced through the ages; a skill mastered in the
heart. In "Shaolin Soccer," it is so much more than a philosophy for
six young believers. It is a complete way of life. But as the world
changed around them, and Honor and Discipline become forgotten virtues,
they lose their way - except for one loyal follower, Sing (Chow). With
the help of a former soccer star, he reunites his old, out of shape,
misfit friends, and recruits a young woman with extraordinary Kung
Fu skills. Together, they're out to combine the ancient power of Shaolin
with the modern game of soccer and in the process, just might take
the world's most popular sport to its most extreme.

Two years ago MEDiAMANiACS brought us this outrageously funny, action-
packed, and very fine film. But they were constrained by the rules to
put it on one CD. Later on a Director's Cut was released with the full
version, together with behind-the-scenes of the making of the special
effects. I've skipped the special effects making-of, and just added back
the three extra scenes. The Sample includes part of one of them, and the
DVD Review link at the bottom explains the extra scenes. This added footage
allowed us to go to 2 CDs, a higher resolution, and include the DD 5.1
audio, which is outstanding. The subs were originally the worst kind of
"Engrish", and didn't synch with the words, were often on the screen for
too short of a time, and were often completely unintelligible. The English
has been cleaned up, and the subs synched with the voices and extended so
that there's actually enough time to read them. Merry Christmas from the
good folks at SAPHiRE.
