Bruce's Fist of Vengeance is a 1984 Bruceploitation martial arts movie from the Philippines starring notorious Bruce Lee imitator Bruce Le. It is considered terrible even by Bruce Le standards.

[edit] Reaction

This film is considered one of Bruce Le's lesser efforts, which is really saying something. Mark Pollard of KungFuCinema.com gives the film zero stars out of five, and writes:

"Craptastic doesn't begin to describe just how bad Bruce's Fist of Vengeance really is. Congratulations if you're reading this, because you just found a review for one of the worst kung fu movies ever filmed...The kung fu is crap, the story is crap, the production values are crap... let's skip to the good stuff. Where else will you see Bruce Le begin a tournament fight wearing white pants, suddenly change to black pants in mid-battle, and end the fight back in his white pants?...A sure sign a movie is going nowhere fast is when approximately ten to fifteen minutes of screen time is spent filming real cock fights. That's right kids, highly illegal and highly inhumane, but nothing endears a screen hero like Bruce Le to his audience more than having him taking his girlfriend to the cockfights to place bets and generally have a grand old time as the birds peck each other's eyes out. If it were not so detestable, I would say these fights were the best in the film."[1]
