It's easy to see why Lee was -- and still is -- such a big star. He had a charm and charisma that few have. The camera loved him. He had that special undefinable quality that James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, Humphrey Bogart and a few others have.
A incredibly entertaining piece of cinema.
...one of the all-time best martial-arts action films...
Certainly one of the baddest movies there is -- in every sense of the term.
High karate and low kitsch ... Forget the dopey James Bond plot and train your eyes, little grasshopper, on Lee as he takes on army of henchmen, demonstrating his revolutionary kung-fu moves and a fire-breathing squint.
No one could overstate the degree of Lee's international star power and influence. He honorably held his place in a line of great action stars that goes all the way back to Douglas Fairbanks.
Top CriticEnter The Dragon marked a new high point in Bruce's ability to marry brilliant choreography with dynamic shooting styles.
Ripping entertainment overall, with just enough meat for amateur sociologists.
Top CriticThe best of his short lived career.
A classic of its genre that must be seen by any self-respecting movie buff.
The opening drums in Lalo Schifrin's musical score can give you chills.
Top Critic...it's still great entertainment and remains a first-class action thriller in first-class style.
It's worth catching this schlock art film to see Lee play a 007-type super-agent, who is an expert in kung-fu.
Presents a powerful, kinetic ballet by a martial arts master at the peak of his form--just try looking away from him.
It is a meld of the decade’s most pronounced filmic conventions (the long forward zoom; scoring with disco-inspired funk; brief gratuitous nudity; the archetypal Afro).
On an adventure level, the performances are quite good. The one by Mr. Lee, not only the picture's supermaster killer but a fine actor as well, is downright fascinating.
Top CriticIf kung fu is now the standard badass language, Enter the Dragon -- featuring Lee's great slow-burn stare -- is the first grammar lesson.
Top CriticThe only real disappointment about Enter the Dragon is that it is Bruce Lee's last movie.
Top CriticWorth seeing for Lee, but still unforgivably wasteful of his talents.
Top CriticRising popularity of the Chinese martial arts as screen entertainment climaxes in fine crescendo in this violence-drenched actioner.
