Movie Reviews

Empire - 8/10 by Jo BerryWay Of The Dragon is memorable purely for its final Coliseum-set showdown between Lee and Chuck Norris (at the time the holder of countless US and World Karate championships). This is the film that provides just about the best combat sequence ever shot.
New York Magazine (Vulture) - 8/10 by Matthew PollyThe film’s appeal rests almost entirely on his fight scene with his student, Chuck Norris — arguably the best one ever captured on celluloid.
Chicago Sun-Times - 5/10 by Roger EbertThis sort of stuff is magnificently silly, and Lee, to give him credit, never tried to rise above it. If a movie like this were directed seriously, it would be a disaster.
The New York Times - 5/10 by Nora SayreUnlike its predecessor, Enter the Dragon, which was praised as a well-made movie, this picture is dreadfully slow and feeble whenever the cast isn't fighting. So you yearn for each battle, just as you wait impatiently for the songs or dances in a tedious musical.
User Review - 9/10 by ThepicI genuinely don't know why the ratings for this are so low. It's Bruce Lee, that alone is enough to give the movie some credibility. I mean I know it's not a 9, but for me this is an exception. I'm giving it a 9 instead of a 10 because I have to acknowledge the flaws, even if this movie is important.
User Review - 4/10 by gracjanskiSimple story. Many technical mistakes (sometimes the pictures are very blurry). Bad sounds, because recorded after the pictures in studio and because some sounds are repeating often. Superficial characters, only Bruce Lee is interesting with his amazing Kung Fu skills, but they show them only in the end of the movie. Very bad humour. -> there are better martial arts movies.
