Shaolin dou La Ma (1983)

Directed by Tso Nam Lee
AKA Shaolin vs Llama
IMDB

A young kung fu enthusiast travels around looking for a master. He needs his master to be able to beat him, but his kung fu is too good. That is until he ends up at a Shaolin temple. The problem is the Shaolin monks aren't accepting students because their last student was a traitor. Said student is trying to kill them. Eventually their only course of action is to accept the new student.
Usually I don't get too wrapped up in the plots of a kung fu movie, but this had a pretty interesting one that allowed for loads of fighting. The fighting was good, but nothing spectacular. This isn't a "must see" and doesn't really stand out that much (although the story and fighting are entertaining), but it's worth watching if you're into kung fu flicks.

7.5/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
