There is certainly fun to be had and it's kind of interesting to see the training from a different perspective, but there are just so many bewildering elements. It's still enjoyable, though.
The film flows real easy and the choreography is pretty good. Adjust your expectations and you'll have a good time. - DirectorChia-Liang LiuStarsHou HsiaoChia-Hui LiuLily LiGordon Liu Chia-hui reprises his famous Monk San Te role as he tries to support and protect Shaolin her Fang Shih-yu who purposely attacks corrupt Ching officials.

The third and final film in the “36 Chambers” trilogy, Disciples of the 36th Chamber is a much goofier and comedic movie than the previous two. But don’t worry, there’s still plenty of martial arts madness throughout.
Shaw Brothers knew how to make compelling action films, that’s for sure. This won’t top the first of the series, but it’s impossible to deny how airy and entertaining this entry was. Absolutely worth to watch.
