Review of Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story (1993) by Alex M — 28 Jun 2009

I LOVE Bruce Lee. I think his rise from very little to something very big, his worldview, and his philosophies were all very admirable, but, as sad and sensationalist conspiracy-theorist as it sounds - what I love most about Bruce Lee, and the Lee family in general, is the mystery surrounding them and their deaths.

While this movie portrayed Lee in all his awesomeness, it didn't focus at all on A. any bad sides he may / may not have had (COME ON!!! Even freakin' Ghandi liked to sleep with 12 year old girls, everyone has some dodgy skeletons in their closets!), and B. It did nothing to further my knowledge on the conspiracy surrounding his death (actually managing to confuse me more).

So ja, if you want to watch a teary chick-flick filled with romance and triumphing over great odds, then watch this, otherwise someone needs to come out with a proper movie filled with some real meat, as apposed to the tofu that this movie is stuffed with.
