Review of Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story (1993) by Steven Y — 26 Mar 2009
This film as stand alone kung fu movie would be worthy of your attention, as it is very enjoyable and well made. The thing that makes it special is Jason Scott Lee portrayal of the legend that is Bruce Lee.
He successfully captures his mannerisms, attitude, and even his fighting style, extremely convincingly ( a truly remarkable feat of acting ability.) Although dramatised to heighten your viewing pleasure, the story actually follows the events in Bruce Lee's life and show us the man behind the martial arts, covering his inner turmoils and personal struggles as well as his famous physical ability.
He is, in my eyes, an amazing human being with an unimaginable amount of courage and a whole lot of heart. This movie showed me that much. The musical score is also one of the best I have heard in my life.
All in all, this movie is an inspiring take on a legend's life. Great story, great music, and a great human being. Befitting the legend that is Bruce Lee.
