i liked it much more than the Warlords.
As what you have said, both Andy and Nicholas's acting are superb in this show!

Corey Yuen's choreography has made somewhat a comeback as the action here was better than a lot of his recent works. The story,

[Show spoiler] another re-telling of Shaolin's destruction, was an interesting arc. Qweilo's seeking to rob China of it's wealth isn't a hard angle to follow. I wouldn't be surprised if it actually played in the authentic history of Shaolin's demise.

Any old-school Kung Fu Film fan should have an appreciation for this film. I feel it satisfies on many levels.
It's not going to win any Oscars, however, SHAOLIN is worth a peek-or TWO-at the very least.

Very good... I noticed only a few minor mis-spellings, Less than you can count on one hand.
