Liu escapa al templo de Shaolin con la esperanza de aprender artes marciales y vengar la muerte de su padre. Liu es aceptado como alumno y es llamado San Te. Su progreso en las artes marciales es espectacular y por fin, con el consentimiento de los monjes, deja el templo para vengar a su padre y reclutar nuevos alumnos para Shaolin. (Filmax)

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.

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.

Well, there is really not much to criticize about this. The choreography is fantastic, there is hardly anything to pick on. This is a blast that just keeps going. And then there is, of course, the great idea of going through the various acts of Shaolin. To be honest, I was more interested in the passage of learning than the overall revenge, which may have seemed a bit dull to me, as if the climax was in the temple.
