Rating: Summary: Jason Scott Lee is amazing in this touching film Review: This is definately one of my favorite movies of all time. While sometimes the film can get a little corny, Jason Scott Lee's acting is phenomenal. This isn't a text-book copy of Bruce Lee's life, but rather it tells the viewer about his personality, his love, and his struggles. This is a thoroughly entertaining film that honours a true hero. Lauren Holly is also excelling as Linda Lee. Perhaps this is one of her best performances to date.
Rating: Summary: Sugar-Coated Hollywood Garbage Review: I hated this movie. It portrays a cartoonish cariacature of Bruce Lee that makes him out as a sort of comic book hero. Many of the events are over-dramatized, chronologically mixed up or simply made up ! Lee always stressed that what he did in movies was mainly for show. He would never perform those flashy stunts in a real fighting or sparring situation. Yet, what do we see here ? The same flashy stunts ! If you want to know the real Bruce Lee story and better understand his art, read his biography written by his wife Linda.
Rating: Summary: Phenomenal Review: This film is easily my favorite movie, and one I personally think was the decade's best. You don't have to be a Bruce Lee fan or know much about him to thoroughly enjoy this film. Although much of it may not have been true to life, the emotional impact this film delivers is immense (especially with the outstanding music score). As much as I enjoyed the action scenes in this movie, it is really about the heartwarming love between Bruce and Linda. If you're looking for inspiration, you'll find plenty of it in this film. I recommend it to anyone and everyone.
Rating: Summary: Excellent movie, full of action, comedy, and emotion Review: All I can say is that this movie is great. Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story wasn't meant to be a movie about Bruce Lee the film star, or Bruce Lee the martial artist. It was written to depict Bruce Lee, the man. I think that the authenticity of intensity that Jason Scott Lee shows in this movie pays a huge tribute to the late Bruce Lee. I read one review that complained that this should have been called the "Linda Lee Story". Perhaps is should have. Who else to tell the story of the legend than his wife? The movie does take liberties about the life of Bruce, but it was written as a tribute to both him and his fans. It was written as a way to include the myths, rumors, and greatness that made him a legend. Great movie, definite buy. The DVD itself contains sooooooo much great stuff. Commentary, trailers, interviews, a photo show of bruce lee, a photo show of the movie. You just can't ask for more.
Rating: Summary: Surprisingly good film and satisfying DVD "extras"ΓΏ Review: This is director Rob Cohen's feature debut (followed by Dragonheart and Daylight, and the cable movie Rat Pack), and it is easily his best. The film has heart and sparks a greater interest in Bruce Lee himself. Because of this film I have sought out some of Bruce Lee's films (Enter the Dragon is a great DVD with lots of extras). One thing I look for in DVDs is commentary, and this is one has excellent running commentary by the director, Cohen. It really enhances the film upon a second viewing and has some very interesting insights into the creative process that goes into dramatizing a biography. Overall a recommend. Universal Pictures I think has done the best job of all the studios in chocking their DVD releases full of extras. If only they made more great movies!
Rating: Summary: The best movie of the decade. Review: This movie is simply outstanding. Jason Scott Lee gives an outstanding performance, he is extremely convincing as Bruce Lee. Everything on this movie, from the breathtaking fight scenes to the fascinating musical score is just perfect! This is not just another martial arts film, it has romance, mystery, comedy and is extremely thought-provoking. I am a great fan of the real Bruce Lee, and this movie will forever remain as a memorable tribute to the master. See it and believe me...
Rating: Summary: The Dragon Dies Hard The American Version Review: The Dragon Dies Hard was a cheap,trashy Hong Kong bio pic of the 70s.Sadly Dragon The Bruce Lee Story wasn`t all that much better.Execpt that Van Williams TVs Green Hornet has a cameo the buget is clearly bigger.As for the film it was as silly as it`s Chinese counter part.I gave it one star but I must say that is kind.Jason Scott Lee ends up maki ng Bruce Lee look like a geek when he keeps saying I`m Bruce Lee.Lauren Holly is acceptable in the ro ll of Linda Lee.There is no attempt in this film t tell us anything we don`t already know about the m am Bruce Lee.I have to admit that I purchased this movie because it is part of a series of films I ke ep in my collection related to Bruce Lee.
Rating: Summary: This is the best movie of all time! Review: I can't recommed this film enough. Jason Scott Lee gives an outstanding performance as the late Martial Arts star Bruce Lee. Lauren Holly did a great job as Linda Lee Cadwell. There is also an appearance by Robert Wagner and Shannon Lee. Shannon Lee is the daughter of Bruce Lee. Great Movie! Great Martial Arts! Action! Comedy! Romance! This film has everything!
Rating: Summary: This is the Best Movie of all time. Review: What can I say about this film. It has alot of good things like action, romance, and comedy. Jason Scott Lee gives an incredible preformance as the late Martial Arts star Bruce Lee. Lauren Holly gives a humorous performance as Linda Lee Cadwell. It explores the issue of Interracial relationships. The film gives you a beautiful glimsp inside Hong Kong. The Cinematography is outstanding to the ChineseCulture. There is also an apperance by Robert Wagner and Shannon Lee. Shannon Lee is the daughter of Bruce Lee. I recommend this film so much.
Rating: Summary: Good...but. Review: Though Dragon is a good movie, it's not acurate at all concerning Master Lee's life. Much of it is out of context or very exagerated. I think they could have presented it better than they did but sit is still a good movie to own.
