Stephen Chow was the only boy of his family, and has grown up as a Bruce Lee fan and a martial arts addict. His career started on TV, where he presented a children show ( "430 Space Shuttle" (1983)) and started becoming popular. He got some supporting roles, after that, and won the Taiwanese Golden Horse award for best supporting actor.

He had his first starring role in 1990 in a 'Chow Yun-Fat' spoof: Du sheng (1990) - "All for the Winner" and started excelling in the comedy genre. In Hong-Kong, his particular nonsense style is called "Mo Lei Tau". It's also on the set of this

More movie that he encountered his fellow sidekick Man Tat Ng.

One of the last HK biggest star which have not been bought by Hollywood, even if Miramax (who'll surely release Siu lam juk kau (2001) - "Shaolin Soccer" this year in the USA - after remastering it, ouch.) has probably planned something for him.

    Stephen Chow the awesome - actor, director, writer and producer amazing and influencing. What a rebel hide show

    Stephen Chow the amazing. He is an actor, a writer, a director and a producer, what will he pull out of his sleeves next. His most recent movie is the Kung Fu Hustle, which is my ultimate favourite movie. Kung Fu Hustle is the dvd which i do not lend to anyone and has to be carefully placed in it's dvd. It is just a piece of art i can't get over how hilarious and crazy and interesting this movie is. I especially enloyed the behingd the scenes where you see the magic flying through the body of Stephen. He seems like a fun yet easy going guy, with incredible talent and i wish i could meet him just top shake his hand.

    He definately gets a 10/10 and 2 thumbs up!!!!

    Rock On Stephen Chow

    China's best to offer, and better! hide show

    No matter what movie he's in, it makes me laugh hard. He is one of the most best actors from action to comedy to drama. I continue to watch his insirational movies. He is just that great because of his trchniques in acting. This man has the talents of weven men combined. His supporting actors help him, but the movies are mostly himself doin the action, the directing, the magic. Hi sunstoppable line of movies are the best from "Zero to Hero" to "The Sixty Million Dollar Man." No matter how old it is, it's still as funny as it gets.
