Sammo Hung had a brief scene at the beginning sparring with Bruce.īruce Lee is incredibly fast and usually slows his moves down for the camera, but in one scene he goes at full speed and it looked like one move, but if you slow it down you can see it’s several. He often played the bad guy the hero fights to show his ability but I always find him interesting to watch. Bolo Yeung picked up his stage name from this film.

Sek Kin, who was around 70 years old when the film opened seemed to take great delight in his villainous role and fought with vigor. I would have preferred more dialogue from Bruce Lee and the charismatic Jim Kelly (who was a real karate champion). Sadly, John Saxon has most of the dialogue and while he is engaging enough, his fighting skills are sorely lacking. Jim Kelly’s character is there because he likes to fight and win. John Saxon plays an American guy in deep debt looking for a score at the tournament. Bruce is headed there to join the tournament where the Big Bad looks for new recruits and new victims. The bad guy’s lair is on an island of course, with traps and lots of minions. Bruce works with the Hong Kong police to bring down this evil drug lord who had a hand in the death of his sister. No, complete with a villain having a metal hand who carries around a white cat.

Starring Bruce, Black Belt Jones, Sek Kin, and Bolo, how could it not be fun? It helps when watching this movie to remember that it was a joint Hong Kong/USA production and in many ways the cast was an international ensemble. Rewatch Value 8.0 This classic Bruce Lee kung fu movie does not disappoint.
