You can certainly see that the camera loved

You can certainly see that the camera loved the charismatic Bruce Lee in this otherwise rather predicable action adventure. He's the young "Tang" who arrives in Rome from Hong Kong to help out in a family restaurant that's under siege from the local mafia who want the premises for themselves. His arrival is quite timely as his adeptness with Kung Fu helps him to eradicate the local enforcers with comfortable ease. In the end they decide to get serious - perhaps the building is on an oil well, or something, so draft in the legendary "Colt" (Chuck Norris) who has the young upstart "Tang" firmly in his sights. There is astonishing agility on display here from an array of experts in this, and other, martial arts that showcase their athleticism and fleetness-of-foot using hands, improvised weapons, balance and precision to exhibit the artistic elements of this deadly form of combat really well. Away from those precisely staged activities, though, the rest of this is a rather ordinarily constructed drama that makes as much of visionary director Lee's limitations as an actor as it extols his skills as a fighter. Essentially, we can live without many of the first eighty minutes, especially the romantic interludes which come across as particularly wooden, and just settle down for a denouement that would have had Nero himself gripped from his throne in the ancient Coliseum.

Martial arts expert Bruce Lee fights off mobsters and world champion Chuck Norris

"Fury of the Dragon" or "Return of the Dragon" or ¨Way of the Dragon¨ is a classic Chop-Socky in which wild fighting scenes provide an overwhelming view of Bruce Lee's skills . A man named Tang Lung (Bruce Lee choreographed his own fight scenes) arrives in Rome to visit his relatives , he helps his cousins (Nora Miao who along with Lee played ¨Fists of Fury¨) in the restaurant business . However , they are being pressured to sell their property to the syndicate, who will stop at nothing to get what they want. There Tang has to defend them against brutal gangsters harassing them and attempting to take over . The syndicate boss hires the best foreign martial art fighters (Robert Wall who played some films with Lee) to face off Tang , but he easily finishes them off . The American martial artist Colt (Chuck Norris film debut) is also hired and takes place a deadly ending combat .

This violent Chop-Socky displays action-packed , thrills , fast-paced and wild fighting images . It is a corny , action-filled and violent film , being entirely filmed in Rome , Italy . Breathtaking fights and embarrassing acting , the whole thing was shot without sound, with the actors looping their lines in post-production . Overwhelming final duel between Lee and Norris , in fact it was last movie to be filmed in the actual Roman Colisseum ; Bruce Lee had Chuck Norris put on weight so he would looks less impressive by comparison . This is a top-notch Kung-Fu movie with the unforgettable Bruce Lee , though he does not fight till almost 30 minutes into the movie . It was billed "Return of the Dragon" during its western release in order to cash in on the success of "Enter the Dragon" as its "sequel". Bruce Lee produced , directed and even wrote and also dubbed almost all of the English speaking characters in this film .

Bruce Lee played and directed this Return of the Dragon , one of the biggest international hit smashes , it was previously realized to his American box office ¨Enter the dragon¨ that was made by an expert on Chop-Socky movies , Robert Clouse , and he directed Bruce Lee's last film : the incomplete ¨Game of the death¨ . This ¨Enter the Dragon¨ was made later but released before ¨Lee's Return of dragon¨ , and Lee had formerly starred ¨Fists of fury¨ or ¨The big boss¨. ¨Enter the Dragon¨ is his last complete movie character but his next film ¨ Game of death¨ was absurdly edited after his death . This Kung-Fu actioner titled ¨Return of Dragon¨ was well made by Bruce Lee himself . According to the Bruce Lee documentary, this is Linda Lee Cadwell's (Bruce's wife) favorite of all her husband's films. ¨Return of the Dragon¨ is indispensable and essential seeing for Lee fans and art-martial enthusiasts . It is not ¨Enter the Dragon¨ but his fans -who have so few to choose from- undoubtedly will want to see it again .
