Cam H This movie is a staple in the Bruce Lee saga. Fight scenes are top notch, especially the nunchuck scene. The comedy aspect is hilarious and it’s got some undertone of darkness with the family betrayal that unexpectedly goes down ! This is a must watch. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/21/24 Full Review Dinos K The fight scene between Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris was the best fight scene in the cinema history. I liked how, when Norris' injured, Lee nods him to surrender because he doesn't want to kill him Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/06/24 Full Review Harvey I The fight scene between Chuck Norris and Bruce Lee will go down as the greatest fight scene between two combatants. Fantastic choreography. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/24 Full Review CodyZamboni Fun, enjoyable action comedy as Bruce Lee goes to Rome to help out restaurant beseiged by thugs. Movie is filled with engaging, empathetic characters, funny socially awkard comic turns by Lee, campy villains, nostalgic 70s fashions and hairstyles, top notch fight scenes, nice Rome location scenery, an attractive female lead, all make this one of Lee's best films. Bonus : the epic showdown between Lee and Chuck Norris. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/24 Full Review DanTheMan 2 After the hard-hitting success of his previous movies under Lo Wei, Bruce Lee swoops in with The Way of the Dragon, his directorial debut of which he also writes, that dabbles just as much in off beat cultural Chaplin-esque humour as it does in flying fists and palpable tension. It's magnificently silly with Bruce never above putting himself in the firing line for jokes, representing a more lighthearted and well-rounded affair but when the gloves come off, Bruce delivers. The film's action feels raw, the breathless technique with a feral edge that combines art and realism in a perfect marriage; to top it all off, Chuck Norris then enters the picture, set to Ennio Morricone's score to Once Upon a Time in the West, and everything changes. Their final fight in the Colosseum is the stuff of legends and rightly so, the long sweeping takes and dramatic lighting highlight both fighters physical prowess, don't play to your opponents strength, express control and discipline never sinking to their level. The Way of the Dragon is genre defining for a reason, inspiring many modern greats from Jackie Chan to Jet Li, that is guaranteed to leave you not only shaken but also thoroughly stirred. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/02/23 Full Review Dick C It's a marvelous film by a Kung Fu Legend, Bruce LEE,...
