It's a good entertaining movie but if you want to get to know more about Bruce Lee this isn't the best material for you to start with. The fight sequence are probably the best thing about the movie and they were highly entertaining, although very hard to believe that they actually really happened that way. OK it's not completely fair to compare this movie to "Ed Wood" since that was a far superior movie to "Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story" (what a horrible title by the way). "Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story" isn't much different in that way. But does it really matter for the movie? It's like "Ed Wood" that was also filled with altered things and false truths but still it was a movie that told us the story of an unique character and what drove him. There are way too many fictitious and untrue things added in the movie to be considered a fair biography. The music by Randy Edelman was also surprising good. Not only the way he plays Lee is impressive but also his fighting skills. Jason Scott Lee perfectly plays Kung Fu legend Bruce Lee. However it feels more like a story based on the life of Bruce Lee rather then an actual biopic of his life. Bruce Lee (Chinese: Jyutping: Lei 5 Siu 2 Lung 4 Novem July 20, 1973), born Lee Jun-fan (Chinese: Jyutping: Lei 5 Zan 3 Faan 4), was a Hong Kong and American martial artist, martial arts instructor, actor, director, screenwriter, producer, and philosopher. The story told in the movie is really excellent and entertaining.
