| best Bruce lee remake - the Big Boss
First off all i cant believe its not released here in The U S yet! Great homage.throwback to hong kong Kung Fu Movies. IF u are a Bruce Lee fan.Do not miss this movie.i don't care download or rent DVD. From the story Line The Big boss..Fists of Fury..game of death and enter the dragon. Director Wong Jin wrote a great tribute.

Phillip Ng's portray is so similar to Bruce its crazy. He has his haircut.clothes..moves and charasmastic flow like Lee did.

Chen is a newcomer to Shanghai looking for laborer job. But soon he is against the Japanese spies..local thugs and corrupt town officials. It also mixes in humor and awesome fight scenes. PHILLIP NG is the next Bruce Lee. He studied under bruce's real kmaster Sifu. He also has over 150 schools that train in jujitsu.. see it now!!
