I received this as a Christmas gift, and though I know that the person who gave it to me meant well I can't help but feel jipped for both them and myself. The Real Bruce Lee promises "his life, loves, triumphs, tragedies" and of course "the development of Jeet Kune Do" (this is from the back of the DVD) and doesn't deliver any of that. The real Bruce Lee is in the movie for a good half hour, as a child actor, and although it was fascinating to see these early films of his it was NOT what I expected. After clips from four of his earliest films the "docudrama" moves into the direction I was looking forward to watching; the life of Bruce Lee. That portion lasted a good 10 minutes, the rest of the film (about an hour or so) is just Bruce Lee imitators in terrible 70's bruceploitation films. I wanted to give this a chance, but as I watched Dragon Lee kick the crap out of overweight slobs in a dojo where the sign in the back reads "Jeek Kune Do" I pushed the fast forwarded button. I didn't want a Dragon Lee film or a Bruce Li film, but I guess with a title like "The Real Bruce Lee" what can you assume but someone else pretending to be Bruce Lee. I'm a huge Bruce Lee fan, and I can safely say that the "rare" footage is not nearly worth the IQ points YOU WILL LOOSE as you watch this. If you see this in a store somewhere, throw it on the ground and leap on it angrily, since Lee can't do it himself.
