Action, Action, and infinite styles!,
By Erik James (Orono, Me USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dragon on Fire [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Two men enemies by blood, forced to be partners is battle. Trained in complimenting styles they come together in order to kill the master of many styles. Can they work together, or are there hidden ogendas? Some of the best fights you'll see. Phillip Kao, John Liu, Wilson Tong, and Dragon Lee star in this definite classic.

Dragon on Fire,
By jazmin (Los Angeles, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dragon on Fire [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I am a big fan and collect martial art movies. I first saw this movie in New York around 1980 or 1981. I saw this movie about 5 times. Phillip (Kao Fei) is the baddest bad guy EVER! He is the best in every movie he's in even on the asian soap operas I tune in. John Liu is amazing. Those 2 put on the best end of the film action EVER! I had to buy this movie for my collection and I still watch it at least 2 or 3 times a week and sometimes I skip to the end just to see Phillip and John. This is a classic movie. I wish they would restore it fully uncut and put it on DVD. I'd be the first in line to buy it. (Now if they could just delete Dragon Lee from it the better) Sorry Dragon Lee too much emphasism on Bruce Lee. Let the man rest in peace.

The Best Kung-Fu Movie I have ever seen,
By "overone98" (Chapel Hill, NC USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dragon on Fire [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is the Best Kung-fu Movie I have ever seen to come from hong Kong ,it is a shame that it is not on "DVD". That is a hope for the Future. Phillip Kuo(MA-Tee) and John Liu( The Wanderer) put on an Exhibtion of Entertaining Kung-fu I saw this movie 7 times when it Originally came to the Theathers in New York 42nd St. I did not see it again until 14yrs later and it still gives me the same sensation that it did in 84. The only Bad thing about the Movie is that Dragon(no Talent )Lee Is one of the stars, other than that,Every fan of Hong Kong Kung-fu Movies should own a copy of this .

The BEST action film ever made,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dragon on Fire [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Sit down Segal, Chan, and Norris, all hail Phillip Kao. This movie is fast paced, action packed. The fighting scenes literally had me out of my seat. I watch this movie once a day and still get excited. "YOU MUST SEE THIS MOVIE."

If you like fast and furious kung-fu, you'll love this movie as much as I do. It seems that all the Dolemite Shaolin Collection movies have fast kung-fu. I bought 5, and all of them have fast kung-fu. It has great sound effects and the fight choreography is 2nd to none. You gotta see it for yourself...

Just the way I rememebered it,

This review is from: Dragon on Fire (DVD)
Nice to get this movie on DVD.There are no extras with it, but the quality is good. Well worth it if you're a true martial arts movie fan, especially a fan of John Liu. Unfortunately, there are a couple of annoying characters in this one, but the heroes make up for it, and the fight scenes are great. This has been one of my favorites for years.

wanna know what happens when godfrey ho gets actual kugn fu actors to direct,
By
This review is from: Dragon On Fire (DVD)
We get the same old terrible godfrey ho movie, but it doesn't end with the white ninja vs the red, we get actual choreographed fights. Easily the best godfrey ho movie I haev seen to date, and sadly, I haev seen hundreds of his ninja flicks. Now the story is just as bad and meaningless as always. Let me tell you what I was able to decipher. John Liu fights a guy at the start of the movie. He beats him and because they fought, their secret style is lost forever?? There are a few white guys in this and a main one who is selling stolen antiques of course. Chan Lau runs a business where he receives these antiques and also sits outside of his house with a blue painted face and challenges people to beat his fighters. He is willing to give up $20 if anybody can beat his guys. So a guy says ok, I'll fight. Chan lau is like, alright, take on Bolo. So Bolo uses this cool gorilla style. Then someone comes in and beats Bolo. Then Phillip Ko shows up and kills him just after his victory on Bolo. Dragon Lee goes around doing Bruce Lee poses and tino Wong is his brother. Dragon is training one day and John Liu watches him. Dragon doesn't liek people watching him so he fights Liu. Then tino wong comes down to fight him. He says "I must kill you to revenge my father". All of this is classic godfrey ho. Sometimes you can have up to 100 or so movies in one pf his films. But this manages to be cut down to only about 3 movies. New record for godfrey ho. Chan Lau hires Liu to work for him, because, well, Bolo lost so he needs another fighter. Hey, I figured one of the plot lines out! Fat kid shows up who you have seen in MANY movies(one is snake in eagle's shadow) and he is trying to break his plates out in some wasteland and is getting mad casue tino wong is catching them and not lettign them break???????? Then we see Chan Lau having this weird scenee where he can't breath and is eating roaches. This happens in the dark of course and I think he is supposed to be a demon, but why I am tryign to figure stuff out in a godrefy ho movie. But basically it leads up to him learning the mad dog technique and biting up dragon lee. That fight and the finale is what got this film it's 3 stars. Good stuff from the great Godfrey Ho.
We also get training sequences and stupid plot twists that add to the film horribleness also. What a wonderful movie. Now this movie is also called dragon, the hero. So why is dragon the star of so many ho movies and nodody elses, Godfrey just loves him I guess. Picture quality is full screened and pretty bad picture with colors bleedign all over the screen. Adn whoeeevr the cameraman was when they were actually filming this, he must have had a seizure at one point.

Good Fighting but very bad story line,
By Paul Sena (NJ, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dragon on Fire [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I purchased this video because of all the credit it recieved in the review section. But, when I watched it I was saying, "What the hell is going on?". The movie brought in characters with out providing a introduction, and it jumps from scene to scene. I have to admit the fighting scenes where good, especially the awesome leg fighter. But due to the lack of a developed story, which leaves you in confusion, I found this movie a little bit boring. Although, if you just like to watch fight scenes, I recommend it because there is a ton of them!

Dragon on Fire (Joseph Kong as Director),
By Dean-chuan Wu (Vista, California United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dragon On Fire [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This movie called, "Dragon on Fire" is the TITEST MOVIE in the whole WIDE WORLD! I'd give it 10 STARS for the highest scale! I really admire Dragon Lee in this movie! He is my IDOL! He is my MOST favorite actor of all time! Lots of awesome fighting sequences makes this movie ROCK the WORLD! I like the way he wastes the gang members! The movie makes me keep my eyes stuck to the television screen for hours! The movie is very addicing to watch! I can watch it over and over like many times and still not get used to it! Dragon Lee's fighting sequences are EXTREMELY EXTRAORDINARY! The VERY BEST BRUCE LEE IMPERSONATOR! This is a very must see movie for all Dragon Lee/Bruce Lee fans! I really love it when Dragon Lee turns villains and enemies on FIRE every time he kicks and punches them plus he also uses Bruce Lee's nunchucks! That makes people on fire, too! Lots of blood makes this movie an AWESOME MARTIAL ARTS THRILLER! I think Dragon Lee is at his very best performance on screen! His fighting keeps me mesmerized forever! I think Dragon Lee's fighting is a lot better than Bruce Lee! He is a total awesome international star for the whole world to see! |
