Hakuna Matata in Cantonese

I know only a small percentage of readers here are Cantonese, so forgive me for publishing a post geared toward a specific demographic. But I couldn’t help myself, because this was so funny.

Kristin Kreuk speaking Chinese in The Legend of Chun-Li

So I just finished watching Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li. In it, Kristin Kreuk plays Chun-Li who occasionally blurts out Chinese phrases (in both Cantonese and Mandarin) with a terrible, terrible accent. If you understand Cantonese, you’ll find this clip above, which I’ve edited slightly, to be laugh-out-loud funny.

For those who are wondering, YES, I do recommend that you watch this film. Simply because it is so bad — so bad that it’s actually kind of entertaining.

Mystery solved!

If I was a bigger fan, I’d probably already know this, but Cutiemish’s latest video confirms my suspicion that she is in fact Cantonese (but of British origin).
