Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Interesteg What makes it different from others?
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
pesic-1 This kind of feels like a porno. A porno has a thin storyline designed to justify all the sex scenes. Likewise, this film has a moronic and nonsensical plot designed as an excuse to shove in fight scenes. You know, I won't even go into the stupidity of this film, and I will just say that maybe a person with a gun could kill all these idiots who fight using nothing but their fists. But hey, for some reason no one in these films ever uses guns, so they have to fight for an eternity. I was not impressed by the action at all. It is pretty dull and often involuntarily funny. I guess low-IQ teenagers might find this enjoyable. Most others won't.
genetaylor88 A glaring omission in your credits list is Chuck Norris.
logansomerville I think that this film was definitely worth time watching even though it was an older film. Even though some of the sounds for the fighting scenes were pretty generic the action in the movie was great. It's story line was good but pretty stereotypical of a kung fu action movie but it would seem less stereotypical seeing the movie at the time when it came out. I think they killed Williams instead of roper because there was still prejudice against black people at that time and it would most likely settle better with the audience of that time having the black guy die rather than the white one. Even in many modern day movies and TV shows the black guy ends up getting killed off, such as in the walking dead. I think the film has aged pretty well since it has a good story line and the action although dated still is exciting. Although the picture and sound quality isn't up to par with most of today's movies there are some scenes in the movie that i very much liked such as the mirror room fight scene. Most kung fu films takes after many aspects of this film since it was the first of it's kind such as Kill Bill and many films featuring Jackie Chan. This movie steals a lot from James Bond even with the music that sounds extremely similar to that which is from the James Bond movie series. They also stole the much of the basic story line of James Bond films with the one bad guy and the good guy has to take him down in a spy like manner.
andyjung Enter the Dragon, a pioneer of modern kung-fu films, mixes Asian culture with tradition North American tropes to create an exciting blend of action and culture. I love kung-fu movies, and knowing that this film was the forefather of many made it that much more enjoyable to watch. The action is still crisp and snappy, although the audio is outdated and out of sync with the video at many parts. It was fascinating to watch kung-fu legend, Bruce Lee, mix with funky basslines and American characters. I think Williams was killed as Han did not consider him valuable enough to spare, like he did for Roper. I think his death also served to be a "look how bad the bad guy is". Many newer films adapt Enter the Dragon's mirror room fight scene, a notable example being John Wick 2. The movie incorporates elements from James Bond, such as the suave music and infiltration plot. Enter the Dragon is a fun action movie with a diverse cast, and certainly worth your time.
