Well what could i say! i doesnt matter what your taste would be in films, this one you would DEFINATELY find it a good film. Basic story line is that Bruces sister committed suicide after a group of people from a martial arts tournament (using the tournament for their undercover crime organisation) tried to rap her mainly a guy named Oharra. So for him, to get his revenge he has to enter the tournament himself. There are also other characters in the fold like Roper who enters so he could pay off his loans. And his friend williams who has a run in with racists cops, who decides to enter the tournament for the money to make his life easy. The main guy in charge of the tournement is Han, with his hench men Bolo and Oharra (played by Bolo Yeung and Robert Wall). With these characters and with thier different backgrounds makes this a good film, BUT what makes it excellent is Bruce Lees presence which definaltely can be felt. Too bad he died under misterious circumstances, other wise he would have been one of the greatest living stars around. Check out his other films as well Fist of Fury, Game OF Death, Way of The Dragon.

Haven't seen it, don't want to see it. We are dealing here with the creative equivalent of a dried out mouldy onion. Why on earth people make these kind of films is beyond me. Can't fathom either why anyone would want to watch. It's like, watching kids fight in the playground. The cumulative effect of this kind of violence is to glorify it and sanitise it, that leads to the crass madness of Bush, Blair and the Israelis. Stuff it.
