Enter the Dragon

Pros: fighting choreography; Bruce Lee's charisma; well-presented story
Cons: more serious and intense than Lee's other flicks, lots of killing

I may be the only female reviewer of this movie, but just like one doesn’t have to be Chinese or a martial arts student to appreciate and review Bruce Lee’s last and best made movie, Enter The Dragon, one doesn’t have to be a...

Pros: An awesome movie packed with tons of extras.
Cons: If you don't like The Seventies, stay far away!

You know, with a sea of kung-fu movies on my shelf, tons of seventies exploitation flicks about the place and more blaxploitation that most people would consider sane, it's kind of shocking that it's taken me this long to get around to reviewing a Bruce ...

Pros: Lee,action sequences to die for
Cons: Some of the rubbish it inspired,one character's death

If ever there was one movie that inspired more of what games and movies entertain me than Enter The Dragon, I've yet to find it. Released in 1973, and the last movie Bruce Lee completed, Enter The Dragon was spawned so many rip-offs, both ...

Pros:
Bruce Lee
Big budget
Tremendous fight sequences
Cons:
Tragic death of Bruce Lee before movie was released.

When I saw that talyseon was holding an Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting! Write Off, I new I had to submit an entry. After all, I have been watching martial arts movies for most of my ...

Pros: Classic fight scenes, excellent performances, lots of panache, a great DVD package.
Cons: It took a few tries to get this far to two DVDs.

Bruce Lee is the first name that comes to mind to me when you think of a pioneer in the field of martial arts. Before the crossover successes of Jackie Chan or Jet Li or Chow Yun Fat, there was ENTER THE DRAGON (R for martial arts violence ...

Pros: Dazzling fight scenes! Bruce Lee was in charge of staging the fight scenes himself!
Cons: Ninety minutes long. Nudity & sexual situations. Not for kids under 13.

WHY IS THAT? I used to go to a low-priced budget theater every week in the mid '70's to see martial arts movies. Enter the Dragon was one of those movies. Seeing this film for the very first time, I was in total awe of some of the greatest martial ...

Pros: great Martial Arts, great showing of Bruce Lee's skills
Cons: simple plot, a few DVD design and packaging quirks

Enter The Dragon is pretty much the be-all, end-all chop socky flick. I personally think Jackie Chan has made better movies, and Bruce Lee would have if he’d had the chance. However, this movie has the real-life drama of being Bruce’s last completed ...

Pros: haiiiiiayyyyyyyyyyyyyyiiiiiiiiiyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Cons: plot holes...brotha can't act...blonde d00d doesn't know karate

How new is the product...how many people have written for it already...how many times the people that wrote for it got read...how popular is the product. Ugh...I am going nuts. It has been too long since I reviewed something for the sheer joy of it. I ...

Pros: Fun flick with touch of philosophy, Some great karate licks, Outstanding extra features -- documentary, interviews, home movies of Lee working out.
Cons: Not as much humor as in other Lee flicks

We all have guilty pleasures, and one of mine goes back to Bruce Lee movies that some Chinese friends got me hooked on several years ago. I feel that the only way I can begin to review these movies properly is by adopting my friend MegaSoul's...

Pros: Everything that you would want in a martial arts movie....especially Bruce Lee
Cons: nada

Let's start out by saying that this movie is the quintessential martial arts movie. It is the movie that made martial arts famous in the united states. It is the movie that made Bruce Lee a worldwide superstar. Sadly, while at the pinnacle of ...

Pros: Great fight scenes, Bruce Lee, some humor
Cons: None

I bought the DVD version and found it to be great. The DVD adds two scenes that were previously cut from the film. There is a scene near the beginning showing Bruce talking philosophy with his instructor at the temple. The other footage is some extra...

Pros: Bruce Lee's Unbelievable Martial Arts Skills
Cons: Almost No Story, Bad Dubbing

Come on, admit it. You know that you like to watch Bruce Lee movies, and especially Enter The Dragon. Enter The Dragon probably falls into a lot of people's "guilty pleasure" lists. I enjoy a well done, thought-provoking film as well as the next guy,...

Pros: absolutely every single thing is brilliant!
Cons: nothing

This is the martial arts movie on which all others are based upon. For example: "Mortal Kombat", which is a complete disgrace, is a mirror image of this, but worse in every single aspect. This is the model on which all other martial arts films...

Pros: plenty of action, sets, cinematography, direction
Cons: formulaic story, average script

"Enter the Dragon" had something in common with "Rebel Without a Cause" (1955). With both films, the young leading actor died shortly before release, becoming a cult hero, and creating massive publicity for the film. James Dean may...

Pros: amazing martial arts sequences, good acting, set precedent for many movies to come
Cons: somewhat weak plot

The late Bruce Lee was not only an excellent actor, but also a master martial artist and philosopher. As the crowning achievement of Bruce Lee's short acting career, Enter the Dragon set the formula for many films to come.
