Super

Extremely enjoyable.  A real kick-ass movie that makes it perfectly clear why Bruce Lee still has a legend the size of Elvis in his last days.

An excellent cast of fun characters from all over the worlds, amazingly choreographed fight scenes, a dastardly bad guy with an evil scheme, beautiful women occasionally nude, an afro-toting asskicker from the ‘hood (the very cool Jim Kelly), and one of the most classic movie climaxes ever make this an instant Martial Arts classic.  In fact, it’s the one that raised the bar for all Martial Arts movies forever.  Many never even come near it.

Younger folks may wonder if the film ripped off Mortal Kombat for its plot, when in fact the situation is quiet the opposite.  Asked by British Intelligence to bring down an evil mastermind who holds a tournament every three years to recruit the best fighters and also happens to run all kinds of nasty drugs, and who also happens to be a former Shao-Lin monk who is bringing shame to them, Lee departs for the island and proceeds to kick all kinds of butt in most impressive ways.

The movie is intentionally funny, never taking itself too seriously, but also philosophical and intense.  Bruce Lee was just starting to get his way in Hollywood and the film remains a deep reminder of what could have been just the beginning if not for his tragic death.  A very worthwhile watch.
