Editorial Reviews:
The last film of Bruce Lee career, released after his death. Here, Lee pays a visit to family members who own a restaurant in Italy. But mobsters, who want the land the eatery is built upon, harass the owners, forcing Lee to defend his family, as only he can. In the film high-voltage, high-kickin finale, Lee, for the sake of his loved ones, must battle a U.S. karate expert (Chuck Norris), in a Roman coliseum!
Bruce Lee never reached his prime in film making; dying before his time. The Way of the Dragon, is a loosely put together story, with fight scenes used as glue along the way. This film was out of stock for years, but this re-mastered version is worth the wait; being much clearer in both audio and video. The tour of the City of Rome Italy is beautiful. But I must admit, the face-off fight between Chuck Norris and Bruce is classic. This is the main reason to get this film. It shows how adaptable Lee's Jeet Kune Do fighting style was. Bruce used Mohammad Ali like foot work and feinting to wear down his opponent, then attacked with his lightening speed and power. This is a must have for all Martial Arts fans.
