Trivia
Three scenes are not directed by Stephen Chow. The fight that reveals the three Pig Stye Masters is directed by Sammo Kam-Bo Hung. The "Burly Brawl" parody, where the One fights the thousand men in black suits, and the fight in the night, where the three masters face the two musicians, were directed by Woo-Ping Yuen.
Quotes
Sing:
Wow, that's a big fist!
Goofs
When Sing fights the gang at the end, before he begins to fight the Beast, he stands on a balcony and throws two bad guys away from him. They land against the wall of the balcony. In the next shot, they crash through the wall and out of the balcony.
Alternate Versions
Original Hong Kong release uses the regular Columbia Pictures logo at the beginning used in front of American films, yet the American release only has the Sony Pictures Classic logo on the bright blue background.
