Absolutely Fantastic
A different way of telling a story
Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
This documentary has opted to take a different approach in relating the Bruce Lee story. Various people who were interviewed for this tribute, seem to place a lot of emphasis upon the less positive aspects of the martial arts legend. Bruce Lee's lack of patience whilst teaching his students, his affair with Betty Ting Pei, an alleged encounter with a crime syndicate during the filming of "The Big Boss," his being open in criticising the traditional styles and having a tendency to brag and to showboat. Some of the above is best taken with a grain of salt. There are better documentaries out there.
This astonishing documentary, from the co-producer of Enter The Dragon, takes a fresh and incisive look at the life and mysterious death of martial-arts legend Bruce Lee.You'll see film clips and rare footage, hear interviews with his famous students, and hear remembrances from son Brandon Lee.
