Cheng is a young Chinese mainlander who moves in with his expatriate cousins to work at an ice factory in Thailand. He does this with a family promise never to get involved in any fights. However, when members of his family begin disappearing after meeting the management of the factory, the resulting mystery and pressures force him to break that vow and take on the villainy of the Big Boss.
User Reviews
Bruce Lee’s first staring role is a great intro to the great martial artist that we know and love
Starting to see the Bruce Lee formula…small town martial artist comes to city to fight crime and scum
Once considered to be something of a weak-link in Lee’s filmography, now is a superb benchmark novelty of 60’s “chop-socky” bliss.
Good martial art action movie, not Bruce Lee’s best movie but still worth watching especially for fans
This is laughably bad, from its over-the-top musical score and shot composition, to its hammy acting.
I am too oversaturated by action films and find it hard to rate it. However Bruce Lee is a legend
I the part where Bruce lee kicks a guy through a wall and it leaves a perfect cartoon shaped man hole
I love the movies made this iconic figure!
Interesting story and fights, but not great acting and not as good as Lee's other work. Had some goofy moments.
Not the greatest of movies, but certainly a legit starting place for a Bruce Lee marathon.
