Reviews for Game of Death
Aside from a few clumsy insert shots, Bruce Lee doesn't even appear until the final 20 minutes!
A bizarre, entertaining, disjointing and strangely discomforting film that marked the end of Bruce Lee's career.
...the standard of the choreography is excellent, and the final 20 minutes - which are almost all of Bruce fighting - are well worth holding out for.
