In BALLS OF FURY , venerable actor Christopher Walken plays Feng, a millionaire ping-pong fanatic who gathers the world's best players in an ultimate death match -- literally -- just so he can watch them do what they do best. He's also a big-shot arms dealer, which may be why the feds -- headed by Agent Ernie Rodriquez (George Lopez) -- are after him. Enter Randy Daytona (Dan Fogler), a has-been ping-pong prodigy who once nearly medaled at the Olympics -- he's "the golden boy who couldn't even bronze" -- but lost to an outrageously aggressive German athlete, Karl Wolfschtagg (Thomas Lennon). The defeat left Randy's father, a gambler who owed money to Feng, dead by the arms dealer's hand. But instead of avenging his dad's death, Randy grows up to become a loser who does ping-pong tricks at dive bars where no one cares, or even knows, that they're in the presence of an athlete. Randy finally gets his chance to face down Feng when Rodriguez recruits him for the FBI's mission. But the former star is woefully out of practice, so he must first apprentice with Wong (James Hong), a blind Chinese restaurant owner who speaks in nonsensical clichés, and his alluring-but-tough niece, Maggie (Maggie Q) -- who both have major axes to grind with Feng, too.
