Synopsis

Martial arts legend Bruce Lee stars as Chen, a man who in early 18th century Shanghai, China, returns to his old school to avenge the murder of his beloved instructor. While investigating the man’s death, Chen discovers that a drug smuggling operation combined with growing tensions between Chinese and Japanese locals played a vital role in the corruption that lead to his mentor’s slaying. Chen must now confront the assassins.

Director

Original

Lo Wei

Lo Wei (12 December 1918 – 20 January 1996) was a famous Hong Kong film director and film actor best known for launching the martial arts film careers of both Bruce Lee, in The Big Boss and Fist of Fury, and Jackie Chan, in New Fist of Fury.

After Lee’s death it was Lo who gave Jackie Chan his first shot at the big time as part of the wave of Bruceploitation. Lo is said to have been linked with Chinese organized crime, the Triads.

Lo ran the production company “Lo Wei Motion Picture Company”.

Lo died of heart failure on 20 January 1996. —Wikipedia

I wish, I wish, I wish Bruce Lee had been able to star in a film which was completely worthy of his talents.

Timeless masterpiece, in which not only Bruce Lee but also Lo Wei once again proves that he is one of the greatest.

Fist of Fury, AKA Bruce Lee Kills Every Japanese Person in the World. Awesome movie, the fight scenes still hold up and I'm always a fan of "One man's rage against the world" type of movies.
