60 of 62 · most liked firstThe late Chuck Norris' politics were pretty dogshit, but today I respectfully salute his half of one of the greatest movie fight scenes of all time. (The Way of the Dragon, 1972)
positive · AI labelView post →Dragon Around Week wraps up! TFH Guru Brian Trenchard-Smith revisits The Way of the Dragon, Bruce Lee's classic featuring the unforgettable Roman Colosseum battle with Chuck Norris. trailersfromhell.com/the-way-of-t...
neutral · AI labelView post →I've watched three Bruce Lee films this month, and I have to say that I thought The Way of the Dragon was a lot more interesting than The Big Boss or Fist of Fury. A movie about identity as much as kung fu. Bonus: 1970s Italian fashion Malus: Chuck Norris' chest hair

positive · AI labelView post →The Way of The Dragon… a good film but probably my least favourite out of the Bruce Lee films… don’t think the comedy worked
neutral · AI labelView post →Time for a lazy Saturday morning movie. Now watching The Way of the Dragon (1972). This is Bruce Lee's directorial debut as well as the Big screen debut of popular supplement salesperson, Chuck Norris. #Filmsky 📽️
neutral · AI labelView post →I’m watching The Way of the Dragon (1972) and it’s really funny to think this must have been the movie playing in Elon Musk’s head when he wanted to fight Mark Zuckerberg in the Colosseum. This is what it’s going to look like, he must have thought to himself.
neutral · AI labelView post →My childhood cinema was the ABC in Wembley. First opened as a Regal in 1937, then renamed in 1962, that was our fleapit. It’s where I saw my first cinema film (Jungle Book). It closed in 1976 with a bill of The Way of the Dragon and Thunderbolt and Lightfoot. Now it’s shops and flats.
neutral · AI labelView post →My ★★½ review of The Way of the Dragon boxd.it/8DQM4J Bruce Lee & Chuck Norris: Modern Gladiators in Roman Colosseum! Thinly plotted & silly film leads to this epic showdown. Great for a minute, but surprisingly short & one-sided. For Lee or genre fans only. #filmsky 📽🎬🎥 Criterion Collection 1036
negative · AI labelView post →It's Bruce Lee night over at TCM, and I've never seen any of his movies...tonight is Fist of Fury and The Way of the Dragon, so I think I'll liveskeet at least one of them over on my film account (still don't like the word "skeet" but for lack of a better one...)
neutral · AI labelView post →#MovieChallenge 2: The Way of the Dragon. Bruce Lee can’t direct, shots out of focus etc. but this is definitely a Sergio Leone influenced film in places. The final fight with Chuck Norris in the Colosseum showcased all his speed and technique. Oh, a cat watched it all. 7/10

positive · AI labelView post →Seeing the Bruce Lee movie, The Way Of The Dragon, on SBS World Movie with Chuck Norris. He was a shit actor wasn't he.
negative · AI labelView post →I mean The Way of the Dragon is a good film but Norris and Lee should have swapped places years ago and the world would have been a better place. No amount of meming suddenly stops someone having been a raging bigot for decades.

neutral · AI labelView post →Bruce Lee didn’t just star in The Way of the Dragon. He bent the whole film around his own force of personality. I wrote about its humour, its swagger, its strange tenderness, and why that Colosseum finale still feels like myth made flesh. boxd.it/dEwIrX #filmsky #filmreview
positive · AI labelView post →I certainly enjoy corny myself. The key with corny is what kind, and the point at which you max out. Don't think I've watched a complete Chuck Norris movie (maybe The Way of the Dragon waaaaay back when?). But I suspect I'd have a hard time lasting all two hours. Betty Grable tho—no problem.

negative · AI labelView post →The only Chuck Norris movie I liked was "The Way of the Dragon" (1972). That's the one where Bruce Lee breaks Norris' neck while a cat looks on in the ancient Colosseum in Rome.

positive · AI labelView post →Last time I saw it, maybe 15 or 20 years ago, I noticed all these inserts from the Way of the Dragon and I was upset but right now I get it, they had to make a movie with him staring but he died after only 4 scenes (the final fight). I'd love to see it reshoot with today's technology, really.
neutral · AI labelView post →It cannot be overstated how often I use this line as a legitimate movie critic. Luckily last night I watched The Way Of The Dragon which has plenty of titties, funny, and kung fu. Also, fuck threads, all my homies hate threads.
positive · AI labelView post →3) Fist of Fury (Rewatch) - Completed. Another Bruce Lee movie that I watched and this was an enjoyable action-filled flick! This movie showcases Lee's martial art skills. I can't wait to get to The Way of the Dragon and Enter the Dragon. #BruceLee

neutral · AI labelView post →Realized I missed this post last week, so playing catchup today. First we have Lee in movie star mode (and the only full film he ever directed) in The Way of the Dragon, a film that combines fights w/Chuck Norris with a shocking amount of toilet humor: theworldofjot29.blogspot.com/2026/06/the-...
positive · AI labelView post →Watching The Way of the Dragon, the only movie Bruce Lee wrote and directed. The English dialogue feels like the fight scenes: a couple of quick words with barely any actual back and forth. I still don't know why the film is set in Rome when literally no one has spoken Italian.
neutral · AI labelView post →5. The Way of The Dragon (1972) Bruce Lee’s sole completed directorial film is one hell of a kung-fu movie that’s as thrilling as it is funny. Also gives some insight on how living as a Chinese person felt at the time of its release. Rest in Power to Bruce Lee, and Rest in Piss to Chuck Norris!
positive · AI labelView post →Word. Owed his entire film career to Bruce Lee kicking his ass in "The Way of the Dragon" (1972).
neutral · AI labelView post →I know. I was not exposed 2 his darker side. I knew there was a rumour of him being upset in the movie, "The Way of the Dragon." He said that Bruce Lee couldn't have defeated him, (so the story goes). But he was playing the role of the villain in the movie. Did he really think that he'd win? 1/2
neutral · AI labelView post →Haha - I love that you are watching an episode with Barbara in it! I knew of WALKER, TEXAS RANGER but never saw an episode. My familiarity with Chuck Norris was in the Bruce Lee film, THE WAY OF THE DRAGON. My Dad would make me watch martial arts films growing up. 😁

neutral · AI labelView post →So I'm watching The Way of the Dragon because I feel like I should expand my kung fu movie literacy, and I just absolutely lost it when they played multiple red-tailed hawk screams over Tang Lung's arrival at the Colosseum and the appearance of Chuck Norris's character.

neutral · AI labelView post →You can certainly see that the camera loved the charismatic Bruce Lee in this otherwise rather predicable action adventure. He's the young "Tang" who arrives in Rome from Hong Kong to help out in a family restaurant that's under siege from the local mafia who want the premises for themselves. His arrival is quite timely as his adeptness with Kung Fu helps him to eradicate the local enforcers with comfortable ease. In the end they decide to get serious - perhaps the building is on an oil well,…
