It's Bruce Le vs. the Japanese! Oh boy, yet another Chinese vs. Japanese movie. With a plot like that there isn't anything new here, so its the usual Japanese pushing the Chinese around, then Chinese fight back. Bruce Le is a student at a martial arts school. The Japanese starting pushing around the Chinese, so Bruce beats them up whenever he gets the chance. The police inspector comes looking for Bruce, so his Teacher sends him away. The Japanese invites Bruce's teacher over for a talk, but it's a double cross and they poison him. With the teacher now dead, the Japanese attack the martial arts school beating up and killing the students. Bruce returns to find his teacher and some fellow students dead. Bruce can't take it any more and heads out for justice.

Okay I'll just ramble here for a bit. Bolo Yeung has a small part as a Mongolian fighter hired by the Japanese. During the Bruce vs Bolo fight, Bolo takes away Bruce's nunchuks, and when he tries to use them he hits himself in the head. Then Bruce rips off Bolo's huge earring, and then rips off Bolo's ponytail. There is also this white guy who fights with a fencing sword. When Bruce reaches the head Japanese boss, he is surrounded by body guards wearing diapers. They look pretty funny and maybe they are supposed to stun they enemy with fits of laughter. Oh yeah there is nudity!! I did learn one thing though, and that is Bruce Le invented the nunchuks. He got the idea from two sausages linked together. How clever. Overall an average flick with Bruce really busting out the Bruce Lee moves from the yell, facial expressions, movements, and nose thumbing.
