An Essential Martial Arts Film!

Anyone that is a fan of martial arts needs to see this film! The film is put together very nicely, and the picture looks great. The story is very good. A students seeks vengeance on the government that killed his friends and family, and seeks out the Shaolin temple. A place where monks only get the opportunity to learn kung fu, they reject him at first but eventually accept him. The intense training of the 35 chambers is shown greatly is one of the best parts of the movie. After his training is complete, he gets the choice of being overseer of one of the 35 chambers but chooses to create his own, the 36th chamber where he wants have the ability to give any man the chance to learn kung fu whether they are a monk or not. See the film to see if he completes this timeless story! Time to go get the other Shaw Brothers films!

SUPERB!!!

This is one of the best Martial arts movies ever to come from the Shaw Brothers. Its storyline and dialogue are creative and highly enteraining. The quality of the DVD is tops - with the choces of watching in English, or Cantonese or Mandarian with or without subtitles - so I can get the best of the actor's performance.

Classic Shoalin Fighting

The "36th Chamber of Shaolin" stars Gordon Liu as young man wanting to avenge the death of his family. As a small boy he is granted acceptance to a Shaolin Monastery where in record time he learns the necessary skills of a Shaolin master. He is shown working through many of the chambers to achieve perfection. However, before he can become a master of one of the chambers, he is challenged to a duel by another Master monk Lee Hoi San. Liu chooses the staff against Lee Hoi San's twin sabers. During his training he discovers and the Shaolin weapon and fighting style for the 3 part staff.
However, after his successful battle against Lee, he is thrown out of the monastery in disgrace for wanting to teach Shaolin kung fu to ordinary people. Now living among those ordinary people, he must fight for them as the new government continues to oppress them.
Amazing fighting sequences and good plot line make this the best Shaolin martial arts films I have ever seen.

Satisfied customer

This movie was well written, directed and acted. The action was good,the plot and the story line were very entertaining. I would HIGHLY recommend this movie to others. A must add to your collection!

A classic but not as good as I remember

A classic, no doubt. I get the whole Shoalin proving ground stuff but I could have used more fight sequences. Three sectional staff scene is unbelievable though. Digital transfer is excellent!
