The Way Of The Dragon
Originally released: 1972
More like The Big Boss than Enter The Dragon. Bruce Lee wears his fish-out-of-water hat and thus the film fluctuates between crappy comedy and superlative martial arts, making it a very mixed bag. It does have the distinction of being the only film Lee directed, and boasts a huge final face-off between him and (then unknown and impossibly hairy) Chuck Norris. It's worth watching just for that finale, but if Lee hadn't been so good at what he did, this would most likely have disappeared - though there is some interest to be taken in the kitsch 1970s trappings.
