The battle between warlords complicates life in the Shaolin temple. When the winning warlord is betrayed, he eventually finds a safe place and solace in the temple. However evil never rests and soon a confrontation is brewing.
This is film of massive set pieces. They are the sort of thing that makes you go wow. Capping it all off is the climax a huge action sequence that floor you with its non-stop action.
Unfortunately the film is dramatically simple, perhaps a little too simple. The trouble is that the film didn't seem to have all that much depth beyond those minimally required for the story. The film his all the points it should for each sequence but little else. Other than the scale the film also seems to be tad TV movieish in execution.
It's never bad, it's just not as great as the spectacular set pieces make you think it should be.
Definitely worth a look, you'll just wish it was better.
