[edit] Blurb

A slapstick Korean jopok comedy, Hi, Dharma's massive popularity in its homeland suggests nothing more than Bruce Almighty inevitably breaking the 200 million dollar mark in the next few weeks. The film is formulaic and sloppy, finding ways to be disrespectful of Buddhism while elevating Sister Act to completely unjustified heights. A group of gangsters hides in a Buddhist temple, infuriating the monks and resulting in a series of contests (diving, a 3000-bow test, solutions to koans) to determine whether the ruffians may stay. Abandoning rational thought in favour of squeezing in as many gags as possible, the frenetic pacing of the piece doesn't do much to bridge the humour gap that manages mainly to make Hi, Dharma a relic that feels like a past no one in this hemisphere has ever experienced.[1]
