Whaaam Baaam Duuuuush Dussssh Aiyyyyyyyyyy ! That's the sound of these so-called Bruce Lee's clones whacking each others and their enemies. And that is also the sound of my stomach whilst watching this film.First up; none of the Bruce Lee's clones look like the original (it debunks the fact that they are are clones, LOL) and the fighting scenes looks as original as watching the election result of an African country.The storyline, if any, is laughable. I may not know if it the preferred storyline back then in '77, but in the millenia, it is not so cool anymore.And the film simply take matters too far. Even with the advancement of technology of 2010, no doctors can revived a person back to life, if the person has been dead for 20mins. But back then, it is possible! And the dubbing makes the film a whole lot hilarious. Like when Bruce Lee told the doctor in an impressive English, "I am killing you for the heinous thing you have done to me!" I mean, WOW ! A good watch if you like to watch a comedy from '70s, but don't watch it if you a a Bruce Lee fan.

This movie is awfully funny, leaving one with an awkward sense of time warp. Secret British intelligence (as secret as unheard of ) summons brilliant scientist for an equally secret operation in a hospital. So the Bond guy calls the professor, they ride to the hospital...picture this, and when they arrive Bruce Lee has been dead for only 20 minutes! So the scientist engineers three morons supposed to be clones of Bruce Lee, but who look credible with sunglasses only, at not less than 20 meters distance. Here we have another common ploy similar to Remo Williams, 6 millions dollar man etc: disaster gives intelligence agency the opportunity to engineer superheroes, who are brainwashed using a pasta bowl & carnival electronic equipment (EG a 29,99 karaoke set ). They are trained by Bolo Yeung...mind this...the AAA+ secret underground facility looks more like the cellar of a third grade middle school in ruins, than a Bond-styled base. They learn awfully fast and are soon having conniptions while a slightly altered version of the Rocky music plays. One of them is dispatched to get rid of some gold smuggler working under the cover of the movie industry...needless to say the Bruce clone is an instant hit. Ultimate fight ensues in what seems a dump, and the thug tries to escape sailing away on board of a ship more attuned to XIX century China...where is Wong Fei Hung? The other two are dispatched to get rid of a thai drug kingpin-scientist whose AAA+ world-threatening laboratory is located in a barn and run by two hindu morons with hollow teeth, the answer to Dr. NO, Hugo Drax etc. This low-budgeter tries to cross the line with shots in Thailand. The evil scientists turns dozy Thais wearing ancient Japanese swimming suits into bronze warriors, but it is easy to open their mouth and stuff it with handfuls of grass, enough to kill them. Audio is out of synchrony, so they hit the bronze warriors and ten second later we hear "deng!". When the scientist who created the clones (the same man who played "boss" in the way of the dragon ) gets rewarded with a hefty "well-done" in front of the picture of a teen aged queen Elizabeth (this tells you how recent the movie is ), he goes berserk in resentment and wants to dominate the world with the best Bruce after a lethal combat between the three. Sympathetic nurse unplugs the brain-control machine controls and final battle ensues. Acting? Pardon? SFX? Pardon? Ten seconds of nudity with chubby thai sunbathers. Fights are very mediocre. Plot is paper thin & poorly stitched together. Image quality very mediocre.

Here's yet another in the fairly lengthy list of Bruceploitation flicks to emerge after the great mans untimely demise.Well, first things first, you just have to hand it to the makers of this what a bloody ridiculous (i.e super cool!) plot! There is just one slight problem from the start however
the three clones of the late martial arts star actually bear bugger all resemblance to him! (nor to each other even more alarmingly!!!) Still, let us not nit pick over such erm
.inconsequential factors; rather let us instead revel in the never ending series of chop-socky fights, cool seventies fashions (including humongous sunglasses and medallions) and indeed the presence of perennial B-movie faves Bruce Le, Dragon Lee and Bolo Yueng.Also of note there are some admittedly hilarious scenes on offer including an entirely gratuitous sequence featuring a group of naked girls on a beach, and in another set of scenes, a bunch of chubby bronze warriors who just can't seem to catch on that chomping on certain poisonous plants isn't conducive to one's good health(!!!)Despite the above high points, it does have to be said that the film is actually rather mundane in it's execution however and that the numerous fights (which account for the majority of the films running time) do actually become somewhat tiresome after a while. Nonetheless, as I previously said, credit where credit's due for sheer stupidity of plot, this is something of a classic!

This movie is actually so bad. (Direction, acting, effects, even the fighting) that it has reached some sort of cult status over here. You should check it out. It's funny as hell.
