Game of Death

What do you do with a series of fight scenes in the can and then your star dies? Do you...? - Use a series of body doubles. - Film said doubles in the dark, with sunglasses, poorly lit. - Use footage of the star's actual funeral - Stick a photo on a mirror to cover up the double's Well they did all of them. It's not surprising that they did given how much money there was to make. It still leaves a bad taste in the mouth though. And there's an eerie coincidence in the manner of Brandon Lee's real death being a plot line here. For the actual Bruce footage, he is as always fantastic. A force of nature. A spectacular martial artist and a compelling presence. (I'm watching his films in reverse order because the first and "last" are weak movies.) 3.5/10

An incredibly flawed movie, but when it's good it's great. Some of the highest highs of any Bruce Lee flick, but some of the lowest lows as well.
