Bruce Lee is an American, born in San Francisco. Yep! I bet you didn't know that, as I didn't know that. He also had one leg shorter than the other by an inch and he was myopic (short-sighted) from birth, equally unexpected revelations, considering he also went on to be the most famous martial arts star of all time-and that is why you should always listen to audio commentaries when you get the chance as you find out all sorts of interesting and revealing things on classic movies. After enjoying the layered track on Fist of Fury, one of Lee's other classics (the cult film that including the bizarre scene where the words greatest Kung-Fu master is caught off ...  Read the complete review

Bruce Lee returns in his directorial debut! Lee plays a man who goes to Rome, a strange country to him, to help out some relatives who own a restaurant and have been intimidated by gangsters.

The fight that comes off of this has become legendary, mainly because it brings two of the ...  Read the complete review

As a fan of Bruce Lee, I was genuinely looking forward to watching Way of the Dragon as it is starring, written and directed by the man himself. The plot, like most good kung fu movies, is relatively simple. Lee is Tang Lung (literally "Chinese Dragon), a country boy from China who has been sent to Rome to help his niece and some family friends defend their restaurant from local mafia thugs. The sides of good and evil are clearly marked out. It's a matter of family and brotherhood against the manpower of the mafia. I feel obliged to say that I don't think the fact that the story is simple is a valid criticism given that this is a kung fu movie ...  Read the complete review
