Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story
This film is a glimpse into the life, love and the unconquerable spirit of the legendary Bruce Lee. From a childhood of rigorous martial arts training, Lee realizes his dream of opening his own kung-fu school in America. Before long, he is discovered by a Hollywood producer and begins a meteoric rise to fame and an all too short reign as one the most charismatic action heroes in cinema history.

Bruce suffers paralysis and writes Tao of Jeet Kune Do
The film jumps from Bruce's lowest physical point during his back injury recovery to his triumphant tournament victory over Johnny Sun.
Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story maintains solid audience appreciation throughout, with particular praise for Jason Scott Lee's performance and the film's treatment of racism and interracial romance. While some critics noted historical inaccuracies and questioned the supernatural demon elements, most found it an entertaining and respectful tribute that succeeds as both biography and action film. The emotional climax in the Enter the Dragon mirror sequence represents the film's peak moment of mythmaking.
