Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
View MoreThere is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
View MoreIt is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
View MoreLet me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
View MoreBecause its 1 hour 30 minutes movie and fighting is 20 minutes. Start was impressive, when Bruce Li fights 4 thugs in grass land and thugs runs away. After that its drama, when Chen Shen goes to visit his blind mom and during the movie, the blind mom, Shen's brother and Shen talk about each other. Shen's brother gets in fight with Japanese small guy, so small, that he cant take care of Shen's brother. So Japanese invade Shen's moms place and destroy the place. Then there's this scene, when Shen's brother is demonstrating his martial arts skills to couple of kids. Kids says his no match to Japanese and Shens brother disagrees and tries to fight Japanese, but gets beaten up. Japanese doesn't bother Shen's brother and they leave him. Then were in restaurant and that small Japanese guy has plan to get guy, who nearly matches Shen, to Japanese side. Small Japanese puts white powder to strong guys vine and I think with that powder, guy makes mistake and is kicked out of martial arts school. Guy becomes furious and kills his former teacher and police claims, it was Shen, because of evidence. Shen gets to jail and meanwhile Japanese kills Shen's brother and mother. There's this old guy and his daughter, who gets Shen out of jail and Shen notices his dead mother and brother. Shen gets furious and goes to Japanese place and in my opinion fighting starts then at 1 hour mark, before it, it was small fights and nothing impressive. Shen beats Japanese and asks them, where their leader is? They advice Shen to small restaurant and Shen notices small Japanese, but Japanese attack Shen, so small guy escapes. Boss kills small guy and Shen tries to leave, but boss attacks Shen and then other strong guy (Same guy, that was manipulated), attacks boss and boss kills other guy. Then Shen kills boss and movie ends. I must say, stay away of this movie. What I've just written, might sound cool movie, but its not. In this movie, its all about story.
View MoreFist Of Fury III stars Bruce Li as the brother of Bruce Lee's character who after accomplishing revenge on the Japanese fighters that killed his brother, returns to take care of his mother and live in the country. Determined to live a peaceful life he finds himself forced into action as Japanese thugs follow him and make his life miserable. Fist Of Fury III is way better than Fist Of Fury II, but (of course) not up to the standard of Bruce Lee's original. This one is a standard kung fu cheapie in all arenas, except that the fights are better handled, the story develops the vengeance angle fairly well and in fact has a great climax involving a thunderstorm that basically adds to the action's overall mood. Once again it's no great masterpiece and Bruce Li, while charismatic, is not Bruce Lee but as far as kung fu movies go this is as good as these things get. Another nice touch is bringing back the English Intrepeter from Bruce Lee's Return Of The Dragon, as well as crisp directing during the action in the style of Bruce Lee's original. It's nothing worth going out of your way to locate, but if found in the bargain bin or in a Kung Fu movie collection, it's worth picking up.* * Out of 4-(Fair)
View MoreIf you are tired of Hollywoods sub-standard claptrap remakes, even more tired of the TV-teen movie of the weak, and even tireder yet of the pg rated watered down remakes of r rated classics.. then this is the movie for you.. skulls are crushed, heads split open, and blood sprays like geysers.. much more killing and maiming.. enough to make you misty eyed for Hollywoods golden years.. when they weren't to PC to make Deathwish, Vigilante, and Exterminator movies... Ahh the good old days.. enjoy the mayhem!! Ah the love story... he loves Killing CHIN-LEE... the main bad guys are gutted and hung on pikes, the flunkies are devoured by lions and hungry bears.. the extreme content of the uncensored version makes it definitely worth the trouble to seek it out..
View Moreit can hold its own, the plot isn't water tight and the editing on the version i have leaves alot to be desired. Its got a bit of everything really, romance (although gone with the wind it ain't), its got family tragedies stemming from the previous 2 films and its got all the action you'd want. Obviously the man character isn't bruce lee so people judge the film on that, but to be honest he does just a good a job as bruce. The fight scenes are fluent and its an allround good film just don't expect any sort of amazing plot and it is a bit on the dark side at times just sit back and watch a good fight film.
