Bruce Lee challenges the underworld to a Game of Death.
Bruce Lee plays Billy Lo, a Hong Kong based movie actor, who is a box office draw. His girlfriend, Ann Morris is a singer who is also climbing to the top. Now it seems the syndicate wants Billy and Ann to join their “management firm”. But Billy knows that they will be treated like property, so he refuses and tells her to do the same. So they try to “encourage” him to join but he still refuses. He would be advised that they will not stop, so he must stop them, permanently. He is even more hesitant to do that but when an attempt on his life is made, he fakes his death and alters his appearance, and decides to go after the syndicate; taking them out one at a time.
“…the standard of the choreography is excellent, and the final 20 minutes – which are almost all of Bruce fighting – are well worth holding out for.” – BBC
“‘Game Of Death’ encapsulates the lasting legacy of Bruce Lee – something future generations can appreciate and learn from. Yes, Game of Death is truly bona fide pastiche.” – Kung Fu Kingdom
“Billy Lo fights his way up a pagoda to find the boss of the syndicate, facing a different opponent on each floor, including the 7-foot tall Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, in what will go down as one of the greatest fights ever filmed.” – The Digital Fix
