Critics Consensus

Badass to the max, Enter the Dragon is the ultimate kung-fu movie and a fitting (if untimely) Bruce Lee swan song.

This is absolutely the best martial arts movie ever made. Bruce Lee is awesome along with a wonderful supporting cast of martial artists. This movie has set the standard for all action movies regardless of them being a kung fu or a normal action movie. I loved it!

And yet when the fisticuffs eventually arrive — on a James Bond-style island where an evil crime lord is hosting an international kung fu-themed tournament of death — they’re impossibly satisfying.

Guardian

[Lee's] balletic moves are a joy and the traditional nunchuck showoff display is mesmeric – it’s why we can forgive this film for the slightly lower-octane scenes when he’s not in them.

Bruce Lee is the star and that's why we watch. Bare bones plot. No apologies. All action. All fun.

... a glorified B-movie mix of kung-fu fighting (choreographed by Lee himself) and James Bond intrigue elevated by the charismatic presence and graceful but deadly moves of the lean, wiry martial arts master.
