PG-13 (US) | USA | English, Mandarin | 90 min

Directed by: Robert Ben Garant

5.4

In the unsanctioned, underground, and unhinged world of extreme Ping-Pong, the competition is brutal and the stakes are deadly. Down-and-out former professional Ping-Pong phenom Randy Daytona is sucked into this maelstrom when FBI Agent Rodriguez recruits him for a secret mission. Randy is determined to bounce back and recapture his former glory, and to smoke out his father's killer - one of the FBI's Most Wanted, arch-fiend Feng. But, after two decades out of the game, Randy can't turn his life around and avenge his father's murder without a team of his own. He calls upon the spiritual guidance of blind Ping-Pong sage and restaurateur Wong, and the training expertise of Master Wong's wildly sexy niece Maggie, both of whom also have a dark history with Feng. All roads lead to Feng's mysterious jungle compound and the most unique Ping-Pong tournaments ever staged. There, Randy faces such formidable players as his long-ago Olympics opponent, the still-vicious Karl Wolfschtagg. Can Randy keep his eye on the ball? Will he achieve the redemption he craves while wielding a paddle? Is his backhand strong enough to triumph over rampant wickedness?

Parent Guide

A woman begins fighting henchman, she finishes one of them off by pulling down his pants (we see a quick glimpse of the henchman wearing tighty whities) before flipping him over. Played for comedic effect.

There is no nudity in the movie

There is an ongoing gag about many men who are held prisoner and forced to become sex slaves: Mahogany offers Randy "courtesans of pleasure," and offers him a choice, describing them as experts in "sensual and erotic arts"; these men then enter the room (fully clothed). In a related scene we hear a squeaking bed from a neighboring room, a man says, "someone's getting lucky," and another man (he is blind) coos after a night of sexual pleasure (not knowing that he apparently had had sex with another man). No nudity is shown.

A man and a woman kiss in a few scenes. Several men crowd around a man and try to kiss him (we see a couple of kisses on the cheek). A woman kisses a man on the cheek a couple of times. A man and a woman hug, they kiss and she is then shown with her legs wrapped around his waist.

A man squeezes a woman's clothed buttock. A singing and dancing sequence at the end features men and women dancing together, and a woman sticks her tongue out suggestively toward a long pole she carries with her. A man licks a small trophy.

Master Wong talks about a prostitute and that she "laughs at you when you are naked" and that "she is the only one that I can afford." Karl taunts Randy, saying that he had sex with Randy's mother (although mentioning that this is not true). Karl tells Randy that he practices ping-pong in front of a mirror "in the nude." A young fan watching a champion ping-pong player, who happens to be a young boy, calls out to him and says, "I love you." A man watching Maggie play ping-pong makes a crude sexual remark. Maggie playing ping-pong with Siu-Foo says, "watch your balls, not my boobs." Maggie says that men tell her "give me a hand with my balls" while playing ping-pong.

Two men apparently have tracking devices inserted into their rectums (we see them walking with an awkward gait).

Women wear low-cut, short, and skin tight outfits throughout the movie, which reveal cleavage, bare abdomen, bare thighs and a small amount of her buttocks. Two women wearing showgirl costumes are shown in a few scenes. A woman's dress is slit up the side to the hip and reveals her bare thigh and hip. A man is shown bare-chested, a man pulls off his pants and is wearing a skin-tight, spandex outfit underneath, and a man pulls off his pants and falls on the floor (he has shorts on underneath). We see several men wearing sumo belts that reveal bare chests and buttocks.

A clothed man makes his pectoral muscles move up and down.

Several men are poisoned by a dart that is shot into their necks (we see them become stiff and collapse to the floor and see their bodies dragged away on a blanket). A dart is shot at a man, and he deflects it with a ping-pong paddle, propelling it at a woman and striking her in the head (she falls to the floor dead).

A man wearing a vest that administers electric shocks is shocked, he falls off a bridge into water, the water glows and we see his body twitch and float face down.

A man is pushed into an elevator shaft (we hear him yell, and we hear a thud). A blind man stumbles and falls into an elevator shaft (we hear that he is injured but not dead).

Agent Rodriquez slams Randy's arm in a bathroom door (we hear a crack and he yells in pain). There is no blood.

Siu-Foo and Maggie fight after he has squeezed her buttock, using punches and kicks; she then fights three more men until they all submit. A man and woman fight, she punches and kicks him repeatedly and pulls out two handfuls of his hair. Maggie shoves Randy against a wall and pushes a coat rack against his throat (he gags briefly and she lets him go). A woman slams a man in the crotch with a ping-pong paddle (he moans). A young girl punches a man in the crotch twice (he falls to the floor moaning).

A man is grabbed and dragged away by two men, one holds a long knife and we then read newspaper headlines about the man having been murdered. A man is struck repeatedly in the head by a ping-pong ball, he collapses and we hear that he died of a heart attack.

A man shoots a gun in the air in a crowded room and other men begin firing their guns (we do not see anyone get struck). Men shoot at a helicopter in mid-air (it is not struck). A man wakes up yelling and another man shoots his gun at him several times hitting the headboard and scaring the man. A man with a gun threatens another man in a few scenes. A man accidentally shoots a gun into the ceiling and is grabbed by two other men.

Randy is carried into an alley and thrown into a garbage dumpster, and one of the assailants blows his nose into several dollar bills, throws them at him and spits on him.

Randy is locked into a meat locker with a carton of bees and a fly swatter: he swats frantically as they sting him and we see him with welts on his face later.

A building explodes, we see flames and smoke and people running out screaming.

Randy breaks through a paper window, slams into iron bars on the other side, and he falls back onto the floor. A blind man slams into a wooden beam and falls back onto the floor (he's OK). A man falls to the floor while trying to hit fast moving ping-pong serves.

Master Wong pinches Randy's crotch with chopsticks (we hear a crunch, Randy winces and is let go).

We see a room filled with weapons that are being prepared for sale. We see several urns apparently filled with the ashes of opponents who lost ping-pong matches.

Randy squishes a cricket in his hand, then wipes it on a place mat (we hear the squishing and see goo). A man shakes a box containing a cricket and another man looks inside the box and reports that it is dead. A man spits on a set of dog tags and throws them on the floor.

Two men apparently have tracking devices inserted into their rectums (we see them walking with an awkward gait).

There are several ping-pong matches shown where people play aggressively, angrily slamming the ball hard and perspiring heavily. Several men scream loudly when they are afraid in a couple of scenes.

Young Randy crashes through a barrier and falls to the floor striking his head and he seems dazed. A man pulls off his pants and falls on the floor.

Feng starts a tournament with a speech about the matches being "sudden death." We hear that a man murdered another man and a woman. Feng describes a vest that is wired to give electric shocks when a volley is not returned. We hear that a man's mother died when he was young.

Let's talk about movies!
