  • Review by Film_Sammlung ★★½

    Wurde damals als 50 Episoden Serie veröffentlich und in Deutschland als filmischer Zweiteiler herausgebracht.

    Aufgearbeitet wird dabei das Leben von Bruce Lee quasi von der Kindheit auf bis hin zu seinem Tod. Besonders werden dabei seine kämpferischen Fähigkeiten und der Übergang nach Amerika eingefangen.

    Glänzt dabei schon fast durch seinen Cast denn vor allem Hauptdarsteller Danny Kwok-Kwan Chan geht voll auf in der Rolle auf. Interessanter ist aber, dass man lauter Kandidaten ran holt aller Michael Jai White, Mark Dacascos, Gary Daniels und Ray Park die natürlich alle Größen sind im Martial Arts Genre sind.

    Wo die Serie wirklich zu glänzen weiß, ist genau dann, wenn es mal wieder volles Pfund aufs Maul gibt. Aufgrund der ganzen Beteiligten schaut das…

  • Review by CJ ★★½

    This 3 hour condensation of a 50 episode Chinese TV series is an astonishingly strange watch. It's almost like a homage to Bruceploitation as much as it is Bruce Lee as Danny Chan plays the Dragon in a retelling of his life that mixes fact with outrageous misguided fiction. The framing device for the first half of the film is that Bruce Lee gets his spine injured by a fight cheat called Yellow-Skin (Li Yuan). Bruce is paralysed and wheelchair bound and relives some of the highlights of his fight career up to that point. Then MIRACULOUSLY, through the power of kung fu and the magical moment of picking up his own child, Brandon, Bruce gets up and walks again,…

    danny chan really just gonna be this good huh?

    i’m still in the process of watching this (i’m watching the series, not the movie cut) but it’s way more entertaining and interesting than i expected to find it, very good very enjoyable

  • Review by Judgmental Chicken ★★★½

    50 Episode TV Series. Not movie cut.

  • Review by Ricemagic ★★★½

    It's light-hearted, and if you're a fan and like me wanting to expand your Bruce Lee knowledge, it's worth a watch. Actually watching the 50 episode TV series not the three hour shortened movie.

  • Review by Fokke van der Meulen

    Wat als we het leven van Bruce Lee verfilmen als 2 90 minuten durende soap afleveringen met lange (LANGE) vecht scenes. Ja, dan wordt het KAK. Chinees TV ding wat redelijk onbekijkbaar is. De acteur die Bruce Lee speelt kan wel zeer goed vechten. Helaas zit hij in de verkeerde film. Het ziet er VERSCHRIKKELIJK uit. En de mensen op het scherm zijn nauwelijks acteurs te noemen. Gefilmd met een Iphone 2 of zo. Jammer. Want ik ben wel geinteresseerd in het leven van deze icoon. Maar hier heb ik niets aan. Ik heb na 45 minuten doorspoelend (X8) gekeken en het was nog lang, saai en stom...

  • Review by Erik Marner ★★★½

    Sick as hell on the couch, and this popped up on the tv. Sure, I got time for a 3+ hr Bruce Lee biopic. Gotta say...as I've read several books on the man, this was imo the most accurate depiction I've seen so far.

  • Review by Kyle ★★

    Chinese soap opera that is super cheap and has an awful English over dub.

  • Review by Futurewizard97 ★★★★★ 2

    I love this movie. I remember watching this everytime when it was on tv when I was 4. I think you should check this movie out.

  • Review by Pat_Mtl ★★★½

    Movie on the life of Bruce Lee. The movie begin with his rise in San Francisco and the go on to his rise as an action star in Asia
