    A film with many good qualities - a unique storyline and inclusion of up-and-coming new actors that do a fair job portraying their characters.

    Kung Fu Ghost is a film with many good qualities - a unique storyline and inclusion of up-and-coming new actors that do a fair job portraying their characters.

    The storyline follows a young woman named Daisy (Jennifer N. Linch) who has moved from Vietnam to California after inheriting her late grandfather's (David S. Dawson) estate. Quickly after she arrives, she discovers that the estate is haunted by the spirit of her grandfather and a ghost named William (Noah Sargent). The ghostly inhabitants vow to protect her family's secrets and special artifacts, but when treasure-hunting criminals threaten the future, she teams up with the ghosts to try and stop them.

    Kung Fu Ghost is a film with a lot of potential. I like that it shows us some new talent like Jennifer N. Linch, David S. Dawson and Noah Sargent. These actors are clearly passionate about this project and it shows in their performances. Jennifer N. Linch shows fear, admiration, shock, anger, disappointment and so many other emotions. Her reactions to certain situations are realistic, which makes the audience more interested in the story. You can also tell that the actors were well prepared for their roles. Kung Fu Ghost has a few editing flaws, such as the scenes where Daisy is on a video call with her aunt. The picture of Daisy's aunt is noticeably edited onto the phone. An honorable mention is Jennifer N. Linch, who serves as the director and producer, and also plays the lead role. Not only does Jennifer N. Linch have all of these credits for this film, but she also specializes in various martial arts, which is incorporated into the film. Adding this element to the Kung Fu Ghost makes it feel more authentic.

    The message of Kung Fu Ghost is to give people a chance before you judge them. Although Daisy is quick to not want anything to do with her ghost grandfather, she finds that she can rely on him more than she initially thinks.

    I give Kung Fu Ghost 3 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 to 18, plus adults. Viewers who enjoy movies about ghosts and spirits may find Kung Fu Ghost particularly fascinating. You can find Kung Fu Ghost on VOD and DVD August 2, 2022. By Maica N., KIDS FIRST!

    A great good family film

    What I loved about this film is that it's very light hearted. It is a good feeling film overall. The BTS at the end was super fun. The Grandpa character reminded me of my own Grandpa when it came to Alexa and technology lol . " Alexi, Alexi.. ". " How didn't see answer me ? ". Grandpa is funny and silly, love him. The two main leads have excellent chemistry. Wish to see more of them together. A great little find.

    Mediocre but fun

    This is close to fan film quality. The script is barely functional, it's predictable, but the saving grace is the main actress. She's quite good at comedy. I can't tell if all her lines were scripted or some of them ad-libbed, but during the first hour or so she popped out line after line that are just hilarious.

    If one ignores the poor filming, poor directing, poor script and just enjoys the one-liners, it's at least worth a watch. But don't go in expecting much. As movies go this would make a good film school "Things to do and not do in a film" leader movie.

    I do have to say though, that I have seen no other film with as many OBVIOUSLY biased staff / family reviews as this one. Consistent 9 & 10 star reviews for THIS film... each review with detailed production information? Not buying it.

    About an hour in I found myself getting bored as even the one-liners lost their thrust and they became more serious, losing what they had going for them up to that point. This would probably make a good MST3K satire film. Definitely a rainy-Saturday-bored type movie. The first hour is worth it just to hear the one-liners and cute accent of the lead actress.

    A cute and lovable story for children of all ages

    Kung Fu Ghost is a cute film with action, and comedy. The story picks up in Vietnam with Daisy, a bright eyed and bushy tailed girl who comes to America. I enjoyed the plot as well as the surprise ending. The film is enjoyable and it takes me back to when movies were full of hope, love and kindness. If you want to have a family event together at home I recommend Kung Fu Ghost.

    I Don't Get It

    I simply do not get all the rave reviews for King FU Ghost. Is it a bad movie? No it is not but it is certainly well below average. The only things I liked are the cat at the beginning and Jennifer Linch ( Daisy) is certainly easy on the eyes. The love story between Daisy and William ( a living person and a ghost) was done so much better in Suzie Q, and the ending of the movie was taken straight from Suzie Q ( anyone who has seen both films will know what I am talking about, if you have not check it out on YouTube). The other thing is the movie is supposed to be a comedy it really isn't. It is a light drama with martial arts mixed in. Finally none of the characters except Daisy stick out for me. I give Jennifer Linch credit for writing directing and starting. For her I give 3/10 stars.
