There will never be another Bruce Lee. I fell in love with him the moment I saw him. I have seen all of his movies and Enter the Dragon is my favorite, and a movie that propelled Bruce Lee into the stratosphere. He is lean and so beautiful to look at. And his movements are pure grace and agility. Here is a man who can do push ups with 2 fingers! He did all of his own stunts and there are no special effects in this movie for him. To watch him in this movie will amaze you and leave you in awe of the man.

In this movie, Bruce's sister (played by black belt karate champion, Angelo Mao Ying) is seen being chased by a gang on thugs intent on evil. She is desperate to get away, but fights with skill and courage when cornered.The fight scenes are amazing. When all options run out, rather than give in, she kills herself. One of the henchmen is left with a huge scar that runs the length of his face. His name is O'Hara(Robert Wall).

Lee (Bruce Lee) is a secret agent who is given the mission to go the karate tournament being held at a fortress on an island. The tournament is the brainchild of the evil Han. Han is suspected of dealing in Opium and prostitution. Lee is to get into this fortress and find proof of Han's illegal dealings. He soon discovers that his sister has committed suicide and vows revenge.

Also going to the tournament are Roper(John Saxon) and Williams(international middle weight karate champion, Jim Kelly). These two know each other, having served in Vietnam together. Roper is in trouble because he owes money from gambling and Kelly is in trouble with the cops. So they decide to go to the tournament. Maybe it will change their luck. The trip is by boat, and it is interesting to see these guys on the boat and the egos involved. Lee gets his buttons pushed by another fighter on the boat, and it is fun to witness what we know will happen.

Once they get to the island, they meet Han (Kien Shih) who is about as evil as a villain can get. He plays this role very well. Lee makes contact with another agent who happens to be a pretty lady. She gives him the information he needs about Han, to start his investigation. Lee goes in search of evidence and the next morning Han is furious that someone has gotten past his guards. He unleashes his favorite fighter, Bolo, on the hapless guards. Polo is a massive machine that delivers crushing death to the outmatched guards.(His role is also played by an Asian champion of martial arts.) Everyone now realises that Han is
