In self-interacting scalar field theories kinetic expansion is an alternative way of calculating the generating functional for Green's functions where the zeroth order non-Gaussian path integral becomes diagonal in x-space and reduces to the product of an ordinary integral at each point which can be evaluated exactly. We discuss how to deal with such functional integrals and propose a new perturbative expansion scheme which combines the elements of the kinetic expansion with that of usual perturbation theory. It is then shown that, when the cutoff dependent bare parameters in the potential are fixed to have a well defined non-Gaussian path integral without the kinetic term, the theory becomes trivial in the continuum limit.
