One word: horrible. No new footage and the video shot at Madison Square Gardens is shot well after Bruce is dead. It's a fake tournament set up to find the next Bruce Lee. What a joke.

[HKFlix Note: This review refers to the US DVD by Brentwood.]

This film was actually my sophomore effort, and I feel that my editing skills really shone through. Unfortunately, this is a second, and partially compromised, version of the film, as my unsympathetic producer forced me to cut just under 1000 hours of additional material--mostly of ugly chicks about to get raped in profoundly public scenarios. In regard to this shameful castration of what undoubtedly would have otherwise been hailed as art of the highest degree, I have in all fairness lowered my rating from a perfect 5 to a 4.5, although the bonus features include a stellar "Casper The Friendly Ghost" short that easily puts my work to shame in its lucidity and brevity. In closing, I personally recommend this film to anyone who feels that their life is flashing by, as this will be the slowest 90 minutes of your life.

This is the funniest Cult Classic ever!

The film takes place in Madison Square Gardens for a bout that is for the Bruce Lee title. (even though the marquee on the arena said Karate demonstration) The Late Adolph Caesar plays himself talking about Bruce's death, and how fight promoter Aaron Banks claiming Bruce Lee was murdered by "the Touch of Death". Aaron even showed a demo of the move by breaking a board into two, even though Mr. Banks tells us the hit will slowly kill you, it sure kill the board on contact. Fred Williamson, Ron Van Clief plays themselves in series of skits. Bill Louie does Kato in one skit. Massive stock footage several good Kung-Fu film is also shown as Adolph tells us this is footage of Bruce's great grandfather (yeah right!), who is a Samurai warrior (he's Chinese!). in the end, this so called Bruce Lee title was Joe Cyclone Flood vs. Louie Negira, and it was a kickboxing match, which look to me like a regular bout that the producer filmed and claimed it was Bruce Lee title for the film. Lots of funny gags with Williamson, and lots of music lifted off other films. This film seems to be in lots of label lately, so Aquarius films must have not put a copyright on it. I think this film could've been a cult classic because it's so bad, but I am surprised Bruce Lee's family did file a lawsuit making Bruce into a wimpy, arrogant, jerk in several dubbed over fake stock footage interview Adolph conducted. Oh yes, there is some footage of Bruce from a old soap opera he did in Hong Kong, and they did dub it over into a comedy.
