Face à l'oppression du peuple chinois par les Mandchous, le jeune étudiant Liu Yu-Te rejoint la résistance, jusqu'au jour où son activité est découverte, entraînant le massacre de sa famille, ses amis. Traqué par l'ennemi, Liu décide de rejoindre le temple de Shaolin dans le but d'y apprendre le kung fu. C'est avec difficulté qu'il se fait accepter par les moines qui, d'ordinaire, refusent de communiquer leur art aux laïcs. Rebaptisé San Te, le jeune rebelle entame un parcours initiatique qui passera par une série d'épreuves se déroulant dans 35 chambres... (Wild Side Video)

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.

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.
