Although its been referred by many names, i would like to address it as 36th Chamber of Shaolin. FOr me that name has the punch.
The story is one we have seen lots of times. A cruel king kills all the good people in the town and the family of "San Te (played by Chia Hui Liu)". San Te seeks refuge in Temple of Shaolin and learns the 35 chambers of shaolin, the are that is available only to the monks. He dares to propose the 36th chamber where he wants to teach kung fu to anyone and everyone. He is sent out of shaolin only to be returned when called back. He heads bacck to the town and takes revenge from the barbarian king and opens a kung fu school after that.
The unique attractive feature of this one is the shaolin training that is shown. i had never seen anything like that before. since its an old movie one might find it lacking for pace at places but if u love martial arts and kung fu...u gotta watch this one at least once.
