Kung Fury (2015) – Full Plot Summary & Ending Explained
Read the complete plot breakdown of Kung Fury (2015), including all key story events, major twists, and the ending explained in detail. Discover what really happened—and what it all means.
In 1985, Miami-Dade Police Department detective Kung Fury, David Sandberg, and his partner Dragon, Steven Chew, corner a red ninja in a back alley. The ninja slices Dragon in half, while Kung Fury is struck by lightning and bitten by a cobra, granting him extraordinary kung fu powers that let him defeat the foe. After taking down a rogue arcade machine robot, Kung Fury quits the force rather than risk losing another partner when he is reassigned to work with Triceracop, Erik Hörnqvist, a decision born of fear and grief.
Meanwhile, Adolf Hitler, a.k.a. “Kung Führer,” enters the timeline and remotely guns down the police chief, attacking the precinct through a mobile phone. Intent on avenging the chief, Kung Fury has Hackerman, Leopold Nilsson, send him back in time to kill Hitler in Nazi Germany. A glitch in the system, however, sends him instead to the Viking Age.
After Kung Fury meets the Viking valkyries Barbarianna, Eleni Young, and Katana, Helene Ahlson, the Norse god Thor, Andreas Cahling, sends him to Nazi Germany to finish his job. Upon his arrival, Kung Fury singlehandedly mows down dozens of Nazi soldiers with his kung fu skills, but is gunned down by Hitler using a Gatling-type gun from inside his podium.
Suddenly, Thor, Hackerman, Triceracop, the Viking valkyries, and a tyrannosaurus hack the timeline and kill the rest of the Nazi army while the tyrannosaurus squares off against Hitler’s robotic Reichsadler. After being revived by Hackerman, Kung Fury delivers an uppercut to Hitler’s groin before Thor drops his hammer on the Nazi leader and his robotic eagle, seemingly sealing the mission as accomplished and allowing Kung Fury to return to his timeline.
Back in 1985 Miami, Kung Fury once again battles and defeats the arcade machine robot, but notices a Swastika on the robot’s body while Hitler and his Reichsadler enter the timeline, vowing revenge on Kung Fury.
