THE BIG BOSS
It took me a while to decide which movie I should use for my review. The most recent one I have watched is The Big Boss, Bruce Lee’s first major film. It was great. It is one of those cheesy kung-fu films where the dubbing doesn’t match the actors, it is very violent, and the dialogue isn’t too deep. I loved it. I know it wasn’t supposed to be as funny as I found it to be, but I had the best time. My boyfriend and I were just saying stupid comments throughout.
The Big Boss is Bruce Lee’s debut film and came out in 1971. Bruce Lee plays Cheng, a nice guy sworn to peace, who came to visit his cousins and work with them. It was weird because for the first half Lee didn’t do much fighting. However, it got really good. When he is thrust into a revenge-fueled rage, stuff goes down. His talent can never be downplayed. Bruce Lee is a legend. Also the ending was just awesome. I have never seen the hero…well, I guess I can say since the movie has been out for like 40 years, carried away in handcuffs by the police. Yes, that is right. The hero was arrested for killing the bad guy. It is very different than how movies conventionally end. China ftw.
