Review of Enter the Dragon (1973) by Richard D — 23 Oct 2015
Hollywood's (comparatively) big-budget attempt at '70s Hong Kong kung fu, starring the genre's most iconic star. There's some pacing issues through all the set-up before we finally get to the island and the tournament, but the success of 'Enter the Dragon' pretty much rests on Bruce Lee's shoulders.
Every scene with him in it is electric, and several of his fights here are all-time classics. Even black and white co-protagonists, John Saxon and Jim Kelly, manage to come off well enough -- but this is Lee's picture every step of the way.
