Set against the backdrop of 1960s San Francisco, BIRTH OF THE DRAGON is a modern take on the classic movies that Bruce Lee was known for. It takes its inspiration from the epic and still controversial showdown between an up-and-coming Bruce Lee and kung fu master Wong Jack Man -- a battle that gave birth to a legend.

Quiz
The original cut of the movie was so poorly received by audiences that the film had to be extensively re-edited in a desperate attempt to please fans by removing many scenes of Billy Magnussen as Steve McKee, and focusing more on Philip Ng as Bruce Lee.

Blooper
The film's portrayal of Wong Jack Man contains numerous factual errors. The biggest being that he was not a Shaolin monk and he didn't come to San Francisco as penance for nearly killing a man in a duel. Also he didn't return to China afterwards since he continued to teach martial arts in the Fort Mason Center of San Francisco until he retired in 2005.

Citazioni
Wong Jack Man: Now, we begin to exceed your limits.
Bruce Lee: ...What limits?

Curiosità sui crediti
A few of the job titles in the scrolling credits such as "stunt coordinator" and "set designer" change back and forth from English to Chinese.

Based upon a true story except for all the facts being made up

That this movie is being released now just proves that people are still completely ignorant and easily fooled. And will buy anything with the name Bruce Lee attached.

"Based on a true story" except all the "facts" are completely made up. Let's make Wong a Shaolin monk. The fact he had nothing to do with the Shaolin temple and wasn't a monk doesn't really matter. Let's put him in some monk robes because, you know, that's cool....

Let's completely avoid the real reasons why the fight happened. Let's avoid what really happened in the fight.

Let's go back to the story about "teaching whites" that Linda Lee made up and has been debunked for YEARS. The already established teachers in California were already teaching non-Chinese. Wong himself taught non-Chinese.

Let's pretend a demonstration that wasn't well received was a real fight that impressed everyone immediately.

Honestly, not sure who should be more ashamed, the people who buy this schlock or the people who had the nerve to make it
