3/5

...the standard of the choreography is excellent, and the final 20 minutes - which are almost all of Bruce fighting - are well worth holding out for.

3/10

Though it barely works as a movie, a handful of fight scenes are undeniably entertaining, including a warehouse brawl with motorcycles and a showdown at the Red Pepper Restaurant.

appropriates Lee's completed fight footage and awkwardly weds it to a hackneyed plot in order to squeeze whatever profits could still be wrung from his legacy

An all around unfortunate and ill-conceived endeavor, it's a Lee feature for completists only.

2/4

The majority of the rescued Lee footage comes at the end -- this part of the film is spectacular and almost makes up for the dreariness of everything that precedes it.

Game Of Death would be an unconscionable tragedy if it weren't for those glorious moments when the true legend shines so brightly for one last fight.

There is very little of Bruce Lee in this movie. The plot is very thin, most of the acting is no good. This is not what Bruce intended to make.

Fantastic, one of the best Chinese movies ever, full of action, adventure, and of course, fight style scenes to Bruce Lee. They could not end Bruce Lee's career better. One of the best endings ever. Highly recommend.

the review made it sound like this was really terrible, but after watching I thought it was actually really great

This film is an insult to Bruce Lee. Using footage from his actual coffin in the film as well as using snippets from other Bruce Lee films to cash in on this legend is disgraceful let alone the stand in double not even looking like Bruce Lee at all! The only actual footage of him is only about 15mins at the end

The fight scene with Kareem is responsible for two and a half of the three stars here. The rest is pretty ridiculous.
