Movie Reviews of The Chinese Connection
Movie Review: MUCH better than fist of fury!
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this film with Bruce Lee's The Fist of Fury" The only part of Fist of Fury that was able to hold me was the last 20 minutes . That was the first Bruce Lee film I ever saw and I was not expecting this to be better. In fact, I only watched it because it was the only thing new to watch. I thought this was going to be just as bad if not more horrible than Fist of Fury.I was SO wrong! This movie is better than Fist of Fury in every way! The story is about Bruce Lee's character who's name is Chad( I think). Chad's Master was one day killed by a gang and Chad swears to kill every one of them. This was the best Kung-Fu movie
I have seen and Bruce Lee's Character is a lot less wimpy in this than he was in the Fist of Fury.
I think Bruce Lee wrote and directed this movie. Great Kung-Fu scenes. Worth your money(And don't make the same mistake I made and don't buy this with Fist of Fury)
Movie Review: His Best Film After Enter The Dragon!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie (called Fist Of Fury overseas) was made before Enter The Dragon and, in my opinion, ranks just behind ETD! While all of Bruce's films and fight scenes are legendary, if this one or ETD is on TV, everything stops! LOL!
The plot, like ETD, is very basic. Bruce comes back to his martial arts school to find out his teacher was dead! Not only that, he suspects was murdered and goes on a rampage to avenge his death!
What's interesting is that even though the film is fiction, the teacher was actually a real life person. That character was recently shown in a film by Jet Li called "Fearless."
Back to the movie, what makes this special is Bruce himself. He was electrifying in every scene he was in. While I am still biased to Enter The Dragon, Chinese Connection ranks a close second in my view! Highly recommended!
Movie Review: Bruce shines in this, his best the lot
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this movie and still think its Lee at his best. Between the scene of him as a very awkward phone repairman, and the scene where he takes on a horde of bad guys with Nunchucks, this is his most complete performance on screen to me and showed his talent at its best. This transfer is of a much better quality than most of the releases out there of this movie. If you ever wanted to see just how good and talented Bruce was, just watch this one and find out.
The story is standard for these movies but Lee bumps the action and the acting up to give this one it's true classic reputation.
Movie Review: Bruce Lee at his finest!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best of Bruce Lee's work. The fight sequences are amazing! And director Lo Wei did a perfect job as well - camera angles, zooms, script, everything! The Chinese Connection is a must have for any martial arts fan. Even if you've never seen a Bruce Lee film, YOU MUST SEE THIS ONE! The only complaint I have is that it is dubbed in English. I wish there was a DVD in the States that had the original audio with English subtitles, but I think the only way to get it is to special order an import. Still, it's a great movie well worth owning.Movie Review: Perhaps Bruce Lee's Best
Summary: 5 Stars
Bruce Lee delivers his most intense, transparent and believable character performance in this film, along with some of his best fighting performances (his first battle at the Japanese karate school is a classic). But make sure you get the Columbia re-master DVD; Bruce Lee is worth the extra cost.
