Summary: Not worth the $$ unless your a Bruce Lee fan!
Review: Hey,

I watched this film, it does have some good fight scenes of a Bruce Lee duplicate, but who is nothing compared to the actual legendary Bruce Lee. In the beginning, it contains like a 30 minute documentary on the Real Bruce Lee and his life, showing clips from his early childhood movies made in Hong Kong, before he came to the US. I think you can watch this film once for the sake of Bruce Lee, if you are his fan and the fight scenes are not bad, they are watchable!

But don't get your hopes too high and you probably will not be watching it often and you can make your own judgement about the duplicate Bruce Lee and his fighting from this film.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Don't fall for this cheap trick!
Review: i bought this dvd because it is presented as a documentary of Bruce Lee, but beware....it is not! first you get 20 minutes with poor quality (i've seen better of these scenes) black & white scenes of the old chinese bruce lee films. After that in about 2 minutes his lifestory is told (with only pictures). And then you get a complete movie with a imitator called Dragon Lee. Altough he is a pretty good fighter and does a good imitation. This is not what i expected. The movie is very very bad. And it is not Bruce Lee !!! If you're looking for a good DVD documentary of bruce lee, skip this one....it's a fake.!!!!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: It's a trick !!!
Review: I bought this DVD thinking I would get a better insight into the life of Bruce Lee. I was partially right. It has some very early footage of Bruce Lee as a child actor and even a clip where Bruce and his real father acted together. Once this part of the DVD is over though, they leave Bruce Lee all together and go on to tell us about Bruce Li and Dragon Lee (Bruce Lee wannabe actors). More than half of the DVD is about these two "actors". I am greatfull to see what they have about Bruce but the rest of the DVD can be thrown out. It's as though they are trying to make you believe these other two "actors" are as good as Bruce. The first, Bruce Li, has only moderately good martial arts skills. Not even worth watching. The second, Dragon Lee, is a bit better, his skills are good, he kind of, only kind of looks like Bruce. He also tries hard to use many of Bruce's mannerisms. Still, why would they even consider adding these two "actors" to the DVD? It's supposed to be "The Real Bruce Lee" not "The Real Bruce Lee and Two Fakes" !!! I gave this DVD 2 stars because they provide some rare footage of Bruce as a child. The only "real" Bruce worth seeing on this DVD.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE REAL BRUCE LEE
Review: See Bruce Lee in one of the world's most famous martial arts movies. Starring with Bruce is Dragon Lee from Korea. This very convincing look-a-like will have you on the edge of your seats. This movie was made in 1973 and is 118 minutes long.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE MOVIE THAT INSPIRED
Review: THE REAL BRUCE LEE was the first movie to use Bruce Lee imatators but it also featured clips from 4 of Bruce Lee's childhood movies.THE REAL BRUCE LEE stars Bruce Lee, Bruce Li and Dragon Lee, Produced by Serafim Karalexis (what?)and Dick Randall (I won't bother making fun of him) written by Lerry (or Larry) Dolchin, Directed and edited by Jim Marcovic.The first 25 minutes or so features the black and white Bruce Lee clips then about ten minutes of Bruce Li beating some guys up and then a whole different movie called "The Ultimate Lee" starring Dragon Lee which is very confusing as far as the story goes but has loads of great action!Straight after Bruce Lee's death THE REAL BRUCE LEE was rushed into theaters and was a monumental success but only released in the USA. Perhaps the only down side is the movie's awful sound quality.The film hits you as a typical 1970's kung fu movie with it's colorful opening credits but it isn't, its better!The whole movie totals about 2 hours closing with THE END being spelt wrong.SO THE REAL BRUCE LEE is a long ecxiting movie and great value for money.Now you can own it on DVD.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: BRUCE LEE THE LEGEND - Baaaaaad
Review: This was a horrible movie. Thats all I have to say. First, it tells you about Lee, then it shows you four of his Chinese movies he did as a kid. Then, the rest of the movie is about some Bruce Lee imitator and is unrelated to Bruce. Extremely cheap, avoid this thing!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE REAL BRUCE LEE
Review: Thought this would be a documentary on Bruce Lee's movies. Instead it is only some footage of his early childhood and rest is the 2 imitator Bruce Lee. DO NOT buy this DVD, not worth spending even a dollar on.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not worth the $$ unless your a Bruce Lee fan!
Review: Well, after ordering and watching this movie, i thought well, this wasn't really that great. There are some Bruce Lee clips and stuff but i thought why would the yshow fake Bruce Lee episodes?..i mean...i'm not paying to watch that stuff. I felt that was just simply a waste of film cuz the martial arts was pretty bad as well...anyhow, i guess if your a bruce lee fan like me, you would order it otherwise, don't buy it!
