在香港国际散打争霸赛上，美国青年卡森惨败于特里弗之手，并被当众羞辱，为报仇雪恨，卡森萌发了去少林寺出家习武的念头。他来到嵩山脚下，结识一个叫阿诗玛的姑娘。阿诗玛带他到少林寺山门。卡森好奇心胜，误闯经堂，被赶出山门，心灰意冷◇经阿诗玛爷爷的指点，他不畏烈日风雨，在山门前打坐，终于打动少林寺主持三德和尚，破例收卡森为少林弟子。卡森入寺后，先是随师兄弟劳作，时日一久，卡森露出烦闷，听起了摇滚音乐。三德法师原谅了他的过失◇来又在练武时逞强好胜，不慎打碎神像，三德法师又原谅了他，并借机教以少林武… After being humiliated in the ring by a dirty kickboxer who pulled down his shorts and then hit him, a martial arts master decides to travel to China and enter a monastery where he may learn the Shaolin form of fighting. The film then veers into "Karate Kid" territory where the novice humiliates himself at every turn, is tolerated as a foreigner, and still comes out a champion. The monastery teaches non-violence, but everyone knows that sooner or later the student will catch up with the bad guy.

Drew smiles, knowing that he has them.
DREW:
You dance, and talk. And have a good time.
LI:
That clinches it, we can't dance.
WU:
And we don't know how to talk to girls...
DREW:
(trying to sound like an expert) That's easy. You just talk to them like you would to the guys – you just don't tell them as much, and... not in the same way... Drew is in over his head.
GAO:
Like you know?
DREW:
Look, dancing's easy. I'll show you. We'll start with slow dancing.
An OOOH escapes from the guys.
DREW (CONT'D) Dirty dancing!
Giggles now. Drew pulls his boom box out of his backpack, and starts searching for a suitable tape.
DREW (CONT'D) You guys grab a pillow for a partner, while I find some slow music.
The disciples have grabbed their pillows. Drew pops the cassette into his boom box and turns it on, low and sultry.
DREW (CONT'D) Just move in time to the music, nothing elaborate. Think of it as a soft form... The disciples move and sway in time to the music. They are treating their pillows like imaginary girls.
ANGLE ON LI: Who is holding his pillow at arm's length.
DREW WALKS BY LI DREW (CONT'D) Loosen up, Li. She's not going to bite!
LI:
How do you know?
ANGLE ON WU: Who is really getting into it. He is dancing with his pillow cheek to cheek, and occasionally sneaking a kiss.
ANGLE ON OTHER MONKS Practicing their dancing and preparing for the party.
ANGLE ON DREW: Who sits back on his bed, his hands clasped behind his head.
DREW:
This is going to be great... ANGLE ON DISCIPLES Still moving and swaying to the music.
DISSOLVE TO: INT. DORM ROOM – NIGHT ANGLE ON DISCIPLES Now asleep and in bed, still clutching their pillows like they were girls.
ANGLE ON DOOR: As it opens. The D.S. looks in on the room, and sees all the kids holding their pillows. He shakes his head and then closes the door.
EXT. TRAINING AREA – DAY ESTABLISHING SHOT OF TWO BODIES FIGHTING, KICKING AND PUNCHING.
CAMERA PULLS BACK TO REVEAL Drew and Gao going at it. The other disciples are paired off as well, but the only real action is here in this ring.
Drew is getting tagged, hard, while the points he scores are all relatively controlled. After one particularly powerful shot, Drew stops.
