Game of Death

Summary: GAME OF DEATH(THAT BAD ?)
Review: TRUE BRUCE WASNT IN MOST OF THE MOVIE, AND THOSE SCENES RECORDED WITH STUNT DOUBLES LEFT A LITTLE TO BE DESIRED, BUT IT CLEARLY BEATS OUT FISTS OF FURY AND COMES CLOSE TO CHINNESE CONNECTION IN MANY WAYS. THE FINAL 1/2 HOUR DISPLAYS THE FINEST FIGHT SEQUENCES THIS SIDE OF ENTER THE DRAGON. WHILE IT IS DISAPOINTING TO SEE ACTORS ACTING TO BE LEE, THE FUNERAL SHOULD BE SEEN AS A TRIBUTE TO BRUCE AND HIS WORK, AND THE FINALIE IS A PLEASURE THAT IS WORTH WATCHING.

Summary: Sad, so sad
Review: this is truly disgusting, taking a dead man's out takes, footake of his funeral, throwing in doubles that hide behind sunglasses and trying t pass it off as a Bruce Lee classic. its almost as bad as all those Bruce Li and Le rip offs. if Bruce was still with us he wouldn't be too happy, thats for sure. HOWEVER it does include a pretty good fight scene with the master himself. so for that reason alone i give i did no tgive it a 1.

Summary: How do you make an action movie without your lead actor?
Review: This problem was impossible to surpass. Calling it exploitative of Lee's death and legacy would be stretching it, seeing as Lee himself committed to the role (not like they slapped together footage of him, as with so many other "Bruce Lee clone" movies and posthumous releases). But in terms of quality, this movie certain has some insurmountable problems.

First, of course, the conspicuous absence of the hero from about half the scenes. Impossible problem to get around, but they compounded it by using a dubbed voice and body doubles for pathetic stand-in scenes. I suspect it would have been much more feasible to simply use what they had and write a new script around the footage. Marks to Colleen Camp (who appeared in Die Hard with a Vengeance 20 years later), gamely playing a love interest without the lead around, and Bob Wall and Samo Hung, who present a pretty nicely choreographed fight scene.

Cinematically director Robert Clouse is no genius, but his shot selection is considerably better than Lo Wei's and even Lee himself (Return of the Dragon was directed by Lee and, despite tremendous fight choreography, was poorly shot and acted).

The climactic showdowns in this movie are overrated -- the nunchaku dual could have been staged much tighter, and the use of those limp-looking, coloured weapons was a mind-bogglingly tasteless choice. Everytime the nunchaku strike flesh, you could almost hear the "splat" of the soft-looking sticks hitting a face. The second fight (the white-robed master) is much better. The third fight was a huge letdown, the Kareem Abdul-Jabbar/Bruce Lee showdown being heralded to the stars, but in fact a slow-moving, uninteresting, unconvincing brawl. Bruce Lee isn't known for his wrestling techniques (fluidity being one of his principles), and in this fight he's relegated mostly to grappling and gritting his teeth.

There are definitely better Bruce Lee movies. Still, I'd take this one over any of Van Damme's kickboxing movies.

Summary: shameful exploitation
Review: This video is a disgusting show of disrespect to Bruce Lee and his whole family. They should've donated the footage they had to the Lee estate after his unfortunate death. These filmakers should live the rest of their lives in a cold dark cave. Don't buy it. You will only feed the greed. It is pathetic and insulting. No stars.

Summary: Save Your Money To Cheesy
Review: This movie would have been cool if Bruce Lee could have finished it in 1970. But the finishing by Raymond Chow is worthless. Don't buy it save your money our buy Fist of fury.Or if you like cheesy movie or the last fighting scene. Buy it

Summary: Dumb.
Review: This is definitely Lee's worst movie. Even Fists of Fury (which is his second-worst) seems a lot more exciting and dramatic than this joke of a flic. The Bruce Lee imitator in this film was actually, okay, but the film should never have been released. The plot was cheesy, the acting, mediocre, and even the fights at the end in which Lee, himself, finally appeared were some of his worst and least memorable fighting scenes ever recorded; they just stank. A Lee documentary is much more worth time and money than this heap of mahoganey.

Rating:
Summary: ONLY WORTH SEEING FIRST THREE FIGHTS AT THE END
Review: This film was ok but only worth watching the first three fights near the end of the film the rest of them were the other actor fighting. If you live in the U.K. you won't see the first fight its been cut from the film all in all its a good try but not the real thing.

Rating:
Summary: This is the best Bruce Lee film ever.
Review: "Game Of Death" is not only the best Bruce Lee film ever but, it is the best martial arts film ever. I give it 5 stars.

Rating:
Summary: An explosive adventure with brilliannt stunts and fights.
Review: Game of Death, is about a man named Billy Lo who fakes his own death so he can bring down the evil Dr. Land and is Management Syndicate, hho made a failed attemp on ending Lo's life. This movie contains some excellent fighting sequences and stunts, but sometimes you can see that the actor playing lo is not Bruce Lee, as he died before it was finished.

Overall, an excellent movie, but if it is bruce Lee you really want to see, don't buy it.
