Its a good movie, but its not the greatest of all time. The plot is thin, the dubbing is terrible, the drug theme is ropey, Roper can't actually do Karate, and the Kiwi is in it for about 30 seconds.
The fighting is OK, although there are better fight scenes in later movies, and other Bruce Lee films but there are three things that make this film great:
1.) Williams
2.) Mr Han
3.) Roper - despite the fact that he can barely lift his legs above his waist.
The Bruce Lee character isn't really a character but more of a caricature of Bruce himself.
That sounds like I'm doing the movie down, and I'm totally not. Its one of my favourites and eminently quotable, but there are better movies around that could be considered to be the greatest movie of all time. ____________________ British beauty: Triumph Street Triple R; Loony stroker: KR1S; Track fun: GSXR750 L1; Commuter Missile: GSX-S1000F; Cheap project: CBR900RR FireBlade

I've still yet to see The 5 Deadly Venoms, the Wu-tang intro from Chessboxin' took me to the movie. Looks like a great Kung-Fu flick.
I've seen the one in the OP, that Chung-Lee still intimidates me, scary looking mother. And funnily enough i was watching the Lee vs Norris fight from Way Of The Dragon a few days back on Youtube. Brilliant.
Do you reckon Bruce Lee would of been caught up in all this CGI martial art film comedy/action (i.e Jackie Chan)? |

Definitely agree that Aliens is a very fine movie indeed also given the technology that made it. Enter the Dragon is a definitely a classic but not 'great' IMHO. It is in the same category for me as most of the Spagetti Westerns, all classics, but now showing their age.
Also in my top 10 I would have:
300
The Hurt Locker
Officer and a Gentleman
Star Wars
Ink
...any other votes of the greatest movie ____________________ Good judgement comes from experience.....experience comes from bad judgement! |

Only because of all the attention it was getting. 6 Oscars does seem a little much. I enjoyed it but felt like one of /those/ films where it's really over hyped. There's nothing in that film that stands out. But i as above, i did enjoy it.
I knew someone would mention Cliffhanger so that's why i made sure i mentioned 'in that genre'  |
