Wissenswertes
In this film, when Linda tells Bruce that she's pregnant, a musical band is visible in the background. The lead singer of this band is played by Shannon Lee, Bruce Lee's real-life daughter.

Patzer
Bruce Lee hurt his back lifting weights, not in a fight. The fight scene is an distortion of a true-life fight in Lee's school.

Zitate
Bruce Lee: The key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering.

Crazy Credits
"This motion picture is inspired by the life of Bruce Lee. For dramatic purposes, many of the events and characters have been created and fictionalized. Although Bruce Lee was involved in a martial arts contest in San Francisco, his opponent did not engage in unfair tactics and Bruce Lee was not injured."

Alternative Versionen
The theatrical release had a different camera angle in a few scenes that different in the video or DVD releases. One of these includes when Bruce Lee (Jason Scott Lee) says "This is the first Bruce Lee Kung Fu Institute.", and punches the air. In the theatrical version the shot of him is a closeup from the front and the punch looks fast and powerful. In the video and DVD release this shot is a distance shot that shows his back and the punch seems fast, but lacking in power.

Good as a movie, not really as a biography.

The story told in the movie is really excellent and entertaining. However it feels more like a story based on the life of Bruce Lee rather then an actual biopic of his life.

Jason Scott Lee perfectly plays Kung Fu legend Bruce Lee. Not only the way he plays Lee is impressive but also his fighting skills.

The music by Randy Edelman was also surprising good.

There are way too many fictitious and untrue things added in the movie to be considered a fair biography. But does it really matter for the movie? It's like "Ed Wood" that was also filled with altered things and false truths but still it was a movie that told us the story of an unique character and what drove him. "Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story" isn't much different in that way. OK it's not completely fair to compare this movie to "Ed Wood" since that was a far superior movie to "Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story" (what a horrible title by the way).

The fight sequence are probably the best thing about the movie and they were highly entertaining, although very hard to believe that they actually really happened that way.

It's a good entertaining movie but if you want to get to know more about Bruce Lee this isn't the best material for you to start with.
