Fists of Fury review

"Mother told me not to get into trouble." Who would have thought Bruce Lee flicks aren't dark? Try viewing his and would witness a man being tempted to drink, prostitution, drugs and even an innocent kid getting murdered. This picture proves that if you can act and fight well (4 kick combos, flying kick, etc), you can be a global star. Plot is simplistic, Chen moves to another country and gets promoted. The foremen ends up missing when things get shady. Chen avenges the death of his friends.Camera direction was supurb and sound effects timely. No patented videogamelike sound with the "whoooaaa" or usage nunchucks. Plain kick ass revenge film which showcases his potential. One of this critics favorite action films since it was simple yet powerful in its own way. Without this movie, Bruce Lee would have not been recognized. Pretty much ahead of its time as well in terms of action choreography.
