Even if the Wu-Tang Clan hadn't named their debut album after The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, the movie would still be on the Mount Rushmore of kung fu flicks. It's just that good. What's the plot of the movie? That's besides the point. The 36th Chamber of Shaolin is all about the training sequences. If your favorite part of a martial arts movie is the training montage, then The 36th Chamber of Shaolin is your Citizen Kane. And even though we only ever get to see ten of the promised chambers, no one goes away from this movie disappointed.
