Bruce lee is a cultural icon, who sadly passed in his early thirties, just before making what would've been his best movie, Game Of Death. But because of an allergy to certain pain killers, we are without his genius. He has impacted so many cultures in so many ways, he has become immortalized in memory.

Comprehensive and honest documentary, even if the choice of interviewees may seem a bit odd from time to time (I'm looking at you "Taboo" from Black Eyed Peas)

Bruce Lee was not the grandfather of MMA.

A pleasant Bruce Lee retrospective for Spike TV. Most of the interviewees that didn't know Bruce personally add nothing more substantive than "Uhh Bruce Lee was cool". A sizable portion of the movie is taken up by a discussion of Bruce Lee as the father of MMA. I did like Ed O'Neill's appearance (who is apparently a Gracie Jiu-Jitsu black belt).

Everyone mad because Tarantino is right. Bruce Lee wasn't some great legendary warrior. He was an actor who was a martial arts enthusiast.

When they have Kobe Briant (Yes, the basketball player) listed as a "Martial artist" you have to wonder what the hell is going on...

Fascinating, but more because I know so little about him than for the quality of the documentary. It felt unbalanced, more like a praise than an objective look into the person and the life he led.
