Jackie Chan brings some warm energy to his supporting role -- a rarity for this big star -- and turns in a delightfully self-effacing performance.

"Shaolin" fits in the more somber kung-fu tradition. But it also finds room for the genre's comic strain.
September 08, 2011
The kung fu itself is great fun to watch, from the discipline of balancing on one foot on a wooden pillar, the other in the air, for hours at a time to the confrontations that send fist and feet flying.
September 09, 2011
Frequently gripping and featuring a surprisingly spry supporting turn by Jackie Chan, it's a sturdy if unremarkable effort.

One of those films that impresses you, even though it fails to set itself apart from other films in the genre.
September 09, 2011
An ambitious, almost epic drama that devotes as much time to introspection as it does to combat.
September 09, 2011
The epic feel to this Hong Kong action-drama helps balance a lack of hand-to-hand combat scenes.

Ambitiously staged set pieces fall victim to portentous technique, creating an ultimately irreconcilable chasm between how much one wants to like this movie and how much they actually do.

Large-scale melodrama is short on action and long on histrionics.

Shaolin features a half-dozen impressive action set pieces, including an elaborate carriage chase and a battle inside the cages where Cao imprisons his workers.

Shaolin is simultaneously regal and stilted, stirring and sluggish.
September 09, 2011
More action, less talk should be the order of the day, but it isn't.
