More on the real side of things
This is my favorite wu tang movie along side Lord of the Wu tang.The fighting may be a bit slow but really amazed me because you could tell that there was no increase in film speed or trick wiring for the fights.Yu Rong Guang (Iron Monkey) plays an ex Wutang student who is given the privelage of becoming a priest of one of the shaolin temples by the royal guards of the gov't so he can succeed the old abbot of the shaolin.This one I particularly liked for the story line and some more realistic but very interresting fights.

Fun flick
OK, not the best in the world, but worth the purchase. Tons of silly dialogue, corny intros to the main characters (wait'll you see the stunt 'horse riding' antics), but the fight scenes are strong; extended in length, and choreographed very well. The finale is gritty, but without a lot of excessive melodrama. All in all, pretty good, but only when you have the extra bucks.

Supurb
From start to finish this movie is great. It has highly skilled martial arts. It takes place on location at the real shao lin temple and wu dang temple. some great styles, and great fight scences. Also there is a great horse race battle with they are coming from mongolia. Forget what the last review said about realistic. Everything is realistic. In all chinese movies. You just have to have some knowledge behind what they are doing.
