too many tacky lines, banal philosophy

this is what's wrong with the movie
hopefully my English was good enough
It wasn't deep but it was the basics of Zen Buddhism. Especially when he was reading what appeared to be the Tao Te Ching. I think the old TV series 'Kung Fu' was much more revealing than this movie. The movie had an awful lot to show and didn't devote much time to philosophy. I guess in 'Shaolin' they just wanted to show the contrast in his worldly thinking and Zen philosophy, but I could have used a heavier dose.
shareIt wasn't deep but it was the basics of Zen Buddhism.Agreed and I found it quite interesting.
I could have used a heavier dose.So could I, but you're not going to get it, when you have to make room for Jackie Chan to do his usual thing.🐭 share
