Summary: The thoughts of Bruce and the frustrations of Hollywood
Review: Bruce Lee fans or cinematic enthusiasts will find this book interesting. There is not much depth of the insight into Bruce, however, when Robert Clouse provides it, it's quite revealing. Examples include Bruce's method of developing his concentration skills and how he practiced for a possible fight against Mohammed Ali.

Most of the book is about the hurdles Clouse overcame producing the movie. Considering the obstacles he had, which included the budget, lighting, props, gang fights, and challenges toward Bruce, etc., he and Bruce did a remarkable job. The book is full of photographs, however there aren't any great pictures of Bruce that you probably haven't already seen.

Ted Weimann, author of Warrior Speed.

Summary: Written for children
Review: Robert Clouse was certainly trying to appeal to the lowest common denominator when he wrote this piece of garbage. What a shame that such an important story should be given such a hack job.

It is valuable for the behind the scenes information and the great photographs. It is a story that needed to be told. It is valuable as a history, but nearly every sentence that Clouse penned is an insult to your intelligence.

I do recommend buying this book, however. Hopefully one day, Mr. Clouse will write the same story, except for grownups, and this sloppy, rushed, middle school kid version will be forgotten.

Review: THIS BOOK REALLY GAVE ME THE FEELING THAT I AM ONE OF THE STAFF THAT HELPING TO MAKE THE FILM,AND ALSO THE FEELING THAT I AM A TURIST THAT ALOUD TO ENTER TO SEE THE FILMING OF ENTER THE DRAGON.THE BOOK IS EXPLAINED BY THE DIRECTOR OF ENTER THE DRAGON. HOW DIFFICOULT WAS THE MAKING OF THE FILMS AND WHAT KINDS OF TROUBLES THE PRODUCERS HAS WHILE FILMING. A LOT OF BRUCE'S QUATATIONS AND HARD WORKING IN STARING,FIGHTING- SCENES DIRECTOING,PLUS OF MANY KNOWN,AND MOSTLY NOT KNOWN PICTURES TO THE PUBLIC.A VERY NICE BOOK AND FULL OF PHOTOS THAT GIVES A REAL INSPIRATION TO THE FILM,(I READ THE BOOK,AND KNOW 50% OF THE FILM BY HEART).VERY HIGHLY RECOMMANDED TO EVERY BRUCE LEE'S FAN!
