Very good comedy , that's why I gave it a 9 . Nevrtheless , the plot described above has nothing to do with the movie ! The real plot is about 3 martial arts who keep arguing about which martial art is the best , until they;ll have to put together their skills to protect their little neiborhood against the mafia .
