A nice fight movie that's fun to watch, entertaining, and with really great fights. Badass choreography, long takes, and the editing doesn't lag. The cinematography alone was a pretty pleasant surprise for me. But it's just a fairy tale. A very naive fairy tale that no one can take seriously. As entertainment, however, it succeeds.

I don't know what a neurologist, or even a chiropractor, would say about Shaolin's "head" training with sandbags nowadays, but even Tomáš Řepka would have shat himself in front of Liu Yu-tem :) Otherwise, it has to be said that without that crucial training, this film would be one of the many forgettable kung-fu flicks, but it's the 40 minutes of entertaining and imaginative drills that make it a genre treat.

There's really very little to fault with this one. Great choreography, which simply cannot be faulted. This is a blast that keeps going. And then there's, of course, the great idea of exploring the different chambers of Shaolin. Honestly, I was more interested in the passage of learning than the overall revenge, which perhaps seemed a bit duller to me, as if the climax was precisely in the temple.
