Critics' reviews

"'Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story' is rousing entertainment with many faces -- martial arts thrills, romance, mystery, comedy -- and a double dose of poignancy"

Richard Harrington: The Washington Post
"A moving testament to the spirit and resilience of Bruce Lee, as well as a compelling love story that transcends cultural bounds"

Duane Byrge: The Hollywood Reporter
"The film is a tribute to Bruce Lee but it's also a tribute to the transforming powers of performance. Lee does justice to Bruce Lee while, at the same time, creating a character out of his own fierce resources"

Peter Rainer: Los Angeles Times
"It'll satisfy genre fans and Lee fans and win new adherents to the Asian-style action film"

Jay Carr: Boston Globe
"In the end, the best thing about The Dragon is that it will make people want to go out and rent ''Enter the Dragon'"

Mick LaSalle: San Francisco Chronicle
"Extremely touching and haunting"

Leonard Klady: Variety
"'Dragon' has an appeal beyond the buffs. Beyond the particulars of biography, it's a timeless human story told with heart and verve"

Dave Kehr: Chicago Tribune
