AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
dafrosts The fight scenes are often vicious to the point of Grotesque. There are children in overabundance in this movie, but it is NOT, NOT a kid's movie. The Nine Devils want to spring their boss from prison and rob a Gold train. Unfortunately, a village of poor people with a high population of teenagers and children, stands in their way. So, what's a group of thugs to do, but kill everyone in the village and burn it to the ground. Luckily, the teens and kids are on the outskirts of town watching one teen try to use his Kung Fu to take down a cow. Yup, a cow. When they sees the smoke from the village, they go to investigate.I cannot take the Nine Devils seriously in the costumes and hairstyles they have. There's a Jin-ish Goon who has a head as a hard as a brick and performs a head butt that has to be rewound and watched at least twice to verify you saw what you saw. Another is wearing pigtails while carrying an oversized Chupa Chup. A third resembles a 1980's WWE Tag Team partner. A Caveman is carrying a stick reminiscent of Jeffrey Dean Morgan's TWD Barbed Wire Baseball Bat. A fourth has Armored sleeves with Kabuki Mask shoulders and Leather studded mittens. A fifth, I kid you not,is running around in pink striped jammies. Yeah, I said Pink striped Jammies. The only "Normal" looking one is wearing an eye patch and a jumper resembling those seen at martial arts competitions.The kids are chased into the woods by two of the Nine Devils, where a Shaolin Abbott and his pupil intervene. Another fight scene occurs where the Abbott, in between "Buddha be Blessed" announcements, kicks some ass and sends the Devils fleeing. I love how the Shaolin kick butt then say "Buddha Be Blessed/Praised". The Abbott and his pupil take the kids further into the hills for protection.The Nine Devils move on to break their boss "Golden Tiger" out of the prison transport coming toward the village. I would never want these prison guards watching any prisoner. They are too easily beaten. Golden Tiger busts out of the cage like he's in a wet paper bag. Seriously, if it was that easy for him to break out, why didn't he do it sooner? The guards were easy to subdue.The Abbott has a friend from Japan coming to meet him. They are going to trade techniques to make both of their Kung Fu styles stronger. The man has brought his two sons with him to teach them about other cultures. Unfortunately, since the Abbott has taken the village kids into the hills, he has to send someone to get his friend. The Japanese encounter the Nine Devils and only the boys survive. They become part of the group protected by the Abbott.The style of Kung Fu the Abbott decides the Teens and children need to learn is Not Called Chastity Kung Fu. That wording no doubt comes from whomever misunderstood the original dialogue during remarketing for the English language countries. The style the adolescents learn is a combo Gymnastics-Kung Fu that would make any Chinese Circus or Cirque Du Soleil proud.The Abbott suddenly announces he's ill and, of course, dying, which leaves training the adolescents to the younger priest, who's very leery about the prospects. When the youngest Japanese boy becomes ill, the Senior Teen and the boy's brother venture back into town to get herbs for healing. They encounter the Nine Devils and Golden Dragon. The Japanese Teen escapes while the Senior Teen remains behind to ensure his escape. The Senior Teen is used to bring the Abbott out of hiding. It works, however, Golden Tiger and his Crue have to work as a unit to kill him.The Adolescents and their new Teacher work harder to become a unit to destroy Golden Dragon and the Nine Devils. The last twenty-five minutes of the film is devoted to eliminating the Devils and their boss one by one. Pajama Man, Jin, Golden Tiger and another Devil are involved in one on one matches, while the others each encounter the Adolescents working as teams. The fights are a tad gruesome as normal matches go. The group fights reminded me of Children of the Corn chasing Adults through the corn fields.The final battle starts with Golden Tiger taking on the Senior Teen. It soon becomes a Battle Royale, as the other Adolescents and their Teacher join him when they finish their fights. There's a moment of singing, which is a tad creepy and again, Children of the Cornesque. Golden Tiger issues that annoying maniacal laughter the bad guys always use. He doesn't laugh for long.The conclusion is the Adolescents kneeling outside the Shaolin Temple awaiting a response from the Main Abbott. Their Teacher appears and announces none of them will be accepted as Priests or Nuns as someone needs to go back to the village and rebuild. The two eldest male teens are instructed to marry the two eldest female teens to continue the population of the village.Hmm, an entire town run only by teens and little kids. No Adult supervision whatsoever. What could possibly go wrong? I would have given it a higher number but the fights were far too gruesome and the Nine Devils were simply too comical to be taken seriously.
movieman_kev A huge group of kids are taken in by a group of Shaolin monks after they're left orphaned by a bloody and vicious bandit attack, but not before a teen fights a bull for no reason. Of course you know, This means war between the vicious bandits and the bloodthirsty kids in duels to the death. This kung-fu film is weird, yet great and above all just a very fun experience. Some nicely choreographed fights as well. Not among the best martial art films in the least. It still remains highly watchable none the less. It's just a shame that I had to buy the DVD presented by the Wu-tang clan just to see it. But oh well, such is life I guess.My Grade: B DVD Extras: An insanely nonsense intro by Wu-tang clan; Bonus fight scene; Wu-Tang music video; A compilation "Kung-fu classics" trailer; and Trailers for "Gangsteresses" & "Blazin'"
kwhuneycutt Shaolin Chastity Kung Fu (1981) is an interesting, entertaining and very cheap film. It is about a group of 30 or so kids (5 to 18 years old) who train in the art of kung fu and take revenge on an evil gang. After a village is burned and all of the adults are killed, the town children are left orphaned. Two Shaolin monks discover the children and give them refuge at the temple. While in their care the monks decide to teach the children the art of Shaolin Kung Fu so they can protect themselves. The kids do more than protect themselves!There is surprisingly plenty of bloody martial arts action in this film, yet it has its child friendly moments as well. The martial arts action in this movie is surprisingly good. Not only is there Kung Fu (and Karate), there is plenty of amazing acrobatics as well. The kids are very well trained and do some unbelievable physical stunts.At the end of the film the group of kids, after being brutally trained in Shaolin Kung Fu, work together to fight the 9 Devils gang. The fight sequences with the kids are not fake like children's movies today, they are truly impressive. The kids really did all the stunts. It is really pretty harsh (and comical) the way the bandits beat on the kids. You won't see anything like this made in America! Alexander Lou (Incredible Kung Fu Mission) turns in a good performance as the eldest brother. Lou is the star of the film though there are plenty of other talented kids who give great physical performances. The last 20 minutes or so of this movie is packed with martial art showdowns between bandits, kids, monks and teens. The movie has some light moments and tries to preach a positive message about toleration of other cultures (Japanese). My only complaints with this film is some over the top wire work and a lot of really bad acting.I was very surprised by how entertaining this movie was and how well done the action sequences were featuring the kids. There are a lot of silly (stupid) gags along the way that are kind of funny, sometimes unintentionally. Shaolin Chastity Kung Fu is fun and silly and not to be taken too seriously. It is definitely one of the most unique kung fu movies and is certainly the most hardcore children's movie ever made. If you are looking for a truly unique movie and a few laughs too, check out Shaolin Chastisy Kung Fu.Martial Arts Genre Rating: 6/10 Overall Movie Rating: 4.5/10
BG_OG A guy gets broken in half by a head butt and there's a lot of action,the acting is good and the plot is enjoyable,i recommend this film,also the DVD has an awesome wu tang music video to go with it. There's a lot of really exctiting fights in this,the action doesn't really let up at all. I think Robert Tai did a good directing job and i'd like to see more of him. Alexander Lo Rei is a very good fighter and i'm sure anyone who has seen this film has looked him up to see more of his work.
