The life & career of martial arts expert and film
star Bruce Lee gets the Hollywood treatment (i.e. It's all fictionalised, romanticised bollocks!).
Jason Scott Lee delivers a good portrayal of the
iconic star and it's quite entertaining if you take it all with a punch of salt, it's just a shame it couldn't veer closer to the truth.
