Review of The Last Dragon (1985) by Chad R — 06 Mar 2009

I loved this when I was a kid - WHO is the MASTER?? SHO-NUFF! Break dancing and Ghetto blasters! That little Ernie kid who had his own TV show for a time. Like 7 years old can do triple lindy roundhouse kicks...well its entertaining to me!

This may be the corniest movie of all time & the unintentional comedy is off the scale. This movie also stars two people who have renamed themselves with no surname like Madonna. So we have Tiamak & Vanity, have never seen this Tiamak (Bruce LeeRoy) since. Did see Vanity in Action Jackson (great corny film in its own right). Anyway, Bruce Leroy thinks he is the reincarnation of...Bruce Lee. He is searching for the master that will help him reach Master status in his own right and obtain the GLOW. If you obtain the GLOW, you are a master of your body and sparks fly off your ass. His antagonist is Sho' Nuff, a badass Ghetto KungFu master with a huge greasy Fro known as (he also has a serious inferiority complex that compels him to ask his lackeys redundant questions of which the only response is his name)...well, The Shogun of Harlem. He & his gang wander around Harlem in Asian style gear combined with shoulder pads and bling, Doing what all bad gangs do, beat up on Pizza shop owners and hang out on corners with Ghetto Blasters searching for other people on which to test their kung fu. Still has some decent fighting scenes and is funny. Who is the Master? Who is the baddest mofo lowdown around this town?
