Rating: Summary: "The Warrior Within"- Chuck Norris tribute to Bruce Lee Review: "The Warrior Within" is a movie about Martial Arts, about their beauty and their lethal potential, their history and their present status. It is also about their place in a modern society whose escalating crime rate and violence is making the knowledge of self defense a necessity for more and more ordinary people, specially women. Martial Arts fans will have the opportunity to see many of their favorites in action. Each is a highly ranked representative of their style and art. Fifteen top practitioners of Jeet Kune Do, Karate, Kung Fu, Jujitsu, Taichi and classical oriental weaponry pay tribute to Bruce Lee. This movie shines for it's excellent content, beautiful slow motion sequences, superb technical credits and good commentary. It is a real eye opener into the world of Martial Arts. This film is a welcomed step away from the sensationalism that all too often surrounds the subject and should be considered as a classic. If you enjoy martial arts films, check this one out. It is definitely a winner. Highly Recommended!

Rating: Summary: BORING Review: I just got this DVD, I am re-selling it. What a wast of money. The quality of sound and picture is terrible. The Martial arts demonstration is OK, but not practical as it says. It is not very well organized, and has no focal point of the film. I am like WHAT IS THE POINT? Just a bunch of mixed up corny film to me....very disappointed.

Rating: Summary: The Warriors Before Us Review: One of the best documentaries ever made about the martial arts. Although the movie is dated, it provides a wonderful commentary about the various Asian martial arts as practice by many different people from different walks of life. Everyone feature is a great martial artist in their own right. Some episodes are extremely interesting to watch and listen such as Ron Taganashi, Chaka Zulu, Fumio Demura, Rabbi Alex Sternberg, Moses Powell, Danny Inosanto, and Moses Powell. Many different martial arts are featured including Karate, Kung Fu and Ju Jitsu. Life experiences are intertwined with stunning demonstrations. There is a small tribute to Bruce Lee and the only failure in the movie is the little long and dated music inserted in the movie that was performed by his brother Robert Lee (it really dates the movie and one wishes the director may have had the forethought to insert the music in a different spot- like the closing credits). Today's younger martial artists should see this film to get an understanding of the pioneers of a generation ago who have laid the foundations participation in the arts. Despite some flaws, the movie is still worth five stars, because of its outstanding commentaries by such an array of martial artists and the coherent direction of the film.
