Rating: 2 stars
Summary: For Die-Hard Jet Li fans only
Review: AKA Shaolin Temple 3, this movie is a decent display of Jet Li's kung fu prowess. If the version being offered is by Telefilms International / Beverly Wilshire Filmworks - buyer beware! The film is NOT widescreen (as it says it is), and the subtitles are cut off by the formatting. If you are a Jet Li fan like me, you will enjoy the action sequences, though they are sparse. Creative stances and good moves from Jet save them. I recommend this film to die-hard Jet fans ONLY - kung fu purists will be very disappointed. Jet Li picks up his role as the orphan raised by Shaolin, his sifu from the previous two films returns as well. If you like Jet, and like the series, go for it. Not Jet's best, not his worst, either. Picture and sound quality is poor. Directed by Lau Ka-leung.

Summary: Agreement
Review: I agree about the subtitles being cut off and the quality poor but the VHS version is basically the same. In fact, on the VHS version, the movie cut to black immediately after the last bad guy gets killed off. No credits, no "THE END", nothing. This DVD is indeed for die-hard Jet Li fans because his fighting skills are quite good in it especially when he fights his way out of a jam filmed on the real "Great Wall of China".

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolutely disagree!!
Review: It's surprising that more people like Shaolin Temple than Martial Arts of Shaolin, aka The North and South Shaolin. But from my point of view, this movie reflects the young Jet Li's best characteristics. Everyone acts so naturally and beautifully in the movie. There is no other Jet Li's movie which is of such a high spirit--intrinsically funny yet simple!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: the best
Review: This is the best one out of all them, in the series. I'd give this 5 stars but the reason is that you can barely see the subtitles. But its a must see movie, i sorta understood anyway even though i could barely see the subtitles.
