      North and South Shaolin

      One of Jet Li's masterpieces is one of Jet Li's masterpieces, and it is also a classic big film and television drama that is all the rage.

      Chinese martial arts is broad and profound, we practice a mouthful of skin outside and a breath inside, and we Chinese men stand in the sky and stand on the ground.

      This just makes me feel more and more proud of my country.

      If it is half as good as this drama now, then China won't have much foothold in the national film as it is...

      Forever Shaolin Temple

      The appearance of "Shaolin Temple" completely changed the impression of Chinese martial arts. In previous movies, I always saw slow-paced sparring shots and whistling sanda, but this movie, with its simple action design and real martial arts shots, made me truly feel the exquisite and gorgeous of Chinese martial arts. In today's movies, at most, one or two martial arts superstars are invited to stage a confrontation. It is almost impossible to see the plot of the monks in "Shaolin Temple"...

      It's a bit contrived, a bit pretentious, a bit middle-school, but it's a 1982 movie

      I must have seen it when I was a child, or in a very simple and small theater. At that time, I was very young, and I basically can't remember the plot, but I have an impression.
            The plot is a bit deliberate, a bit far-fetched, and there are many logical loopholes. The dubbing during the fight has the feeling of a love action movie, and the voice is breathless. Buddhist monks are everywhere like ghosts. Li Lianjie's performance is very second, the real fault is not me, but the whole...

      3.5 Watching this movie now, I feel really embarrassed. Let’s see what the abbot of Shaolin Temple looks like now? This film is considered the last brilliance of traditional Chinese martial arts, with exaggerated sound effects and performances, and precise movements. This Wang Shouren's troops are very strong, and all Shaolin masters will not fall behind. If it is a propaganda film, it is really hard to pick. What's wrong, the theme song is also widely...

      Li Lianjie's acting skills are very good, the first time he is involved in the film. In terms of martial arts, there is really nothing to say about Tanglang Quan, drunk stick, three-section stick, toad, and lying fist. The Japanese people mentioned above have all proved that Shaolin Temple's Haina Baichuan really is the first to promote martial arts. Why is Bai Wuxia so familiar? It's no wonder that she later joined the Singaporean, and she has acted in many Singaporean costume...
