On the side of the box of "Bruce Lee: The Man, The Myth" is says the it's a documentary. He is a little bit of the description off the back of the box, "The Dragon's meteoric rise to international superstar is brought to life in this poignant yet hard-hitting documentary." So what did I learn about Bruce Lee from this movie? A couple things actually, Bruce kicked ass on a regular basis, he liked to wear track suits, and he died suddenly. Bruce spends over half the movie in various coloured track suits. Everyone wants to challenge Bruce cuz they think he's not any good or their style is better than his. Since Bruce died so suddenly and mysteriously there a many rumours surrounding his death. At the end they present two of the most popular rumours. One is Bruce was killed by a gang of guys with swords and the second is that he faked to death to go into hiding for 10 years to re-emerge in 1983. So as you can see the movie really broke new ground and showed a different side we never knew of "Bruce Lee: The Man, The Myth."
Now about the movie, it's not bad, actually I like it. One of my picks for best Bruceploitation movie. The acting is...uh...there and the fight sequence are above average. Here is a quick summary of the movie. "Bruce Lee goes to HK to Seattle to San Francisco to Long Beach to HK to Bangkok to HK to Rome to HK and all along the way he kicks ass after ass after ass after ass after ass and so on and then sadly he dies. So you can see it has a solid story that will keep your attention from the start to the end.
