Balls of Fury (2007)
Review Summary
The last movie I saw before I went on vacation was “Hot Rod,” about a tall, skinny loser who dreams of rising to glory as a stuntman. The first movie I saw upon my return was “Balls of Fury,” about a short, stubby loser who seeks glory in the world of competitive Ping-Pong. It’s like I never left! And while I have nothing against either film — aside from the fact that they’re both terrible — I do have one request. Can summer please be over now? “Balls of Fury” is raunchier and somewhat more imaginative than “Hot Rod,” and it will be must viewing for Christopher Walken completists who have mislaid their special collector’s edition DVD of “The Country Bears.” Along the way, “Balls of Fury” shambles through a checklist of lowbrow comedy conventions. Mr. Walken plays a super-villain named Feng, who dresses in red brocade and whose passions are Ping-Pong and having people killed with poison darts shot from a blowgun.
