"Kung Fu Fever" is undeniably a wretched piece of filmmaking, and the movie would be nothing without martial arts star Dragon Lee, who really is a thrill to watch. Certainly one of the better Bruce Lee clones, only Dragon takes it a step further, and resembles in style a 70's Elvis as much as Bruce. The man is tacky.. Dragon and co-star Amy Chum make an attractive duo when they join forces to get possession of some instructional manual supposedly written by the late, great Bruce Lee. Amy Chum is an extremely sexy, leather-wearing, dirt bike riding wild girl, who cares about impressing her father, at any cost. Sure, the story is crap, and the dubbing is astoundingly bad. But the fight scenes featuring Dragon are actually very good. Dragon Lee had the moves, and that can't be denied, and this is the real reason why we watch this kind of film anyway. Considered by most people to be blatant exploitation, these Bruce Lee rip-off films can be seen as tributes, and as a record of just how much of an impact Bruce had on the world, and just how much he is missed.

I got this movie for two dollars at Media Play and thought I was getting a steal. Instead! It was mediocore. The plot is bascially about a Kung- Fu Finger technique book that was suppose be written by Bruce Lee and every thug in the picture is trying to get their hands on the book until Dragon Lee( Who half way does an good Bruce Lee impression). The odd thing about this movie is that Ron Van Clief is a bad guy in the movie challanging Dragon Lee and gets his butt whooped everytime. If you find it @ Media Play it's worth about the price i'd payed for it. TWO DOLLARS!

'Kung Fu Fever' aka 'Jeongmujibo'. (1979) - Kim Si-Kyun.

'Kung Fu Fever' is arguably the apex of luridly cobbled together chop Schlocky exploitation that pirated Bruce Lee's indomitable fighting legend. Wholly disposable plot finds a colourful assortment of conniving martial art hoodlums conspiring to steal Bruce Lee's much coveted 'Finger Technique manual, and it is largely down to muscular Kung Fu dynamo Dragon Lee to prevent them! Undeniably shoddy film-making is sweetly leavened by plentiful skull-cracking action, and charismatic Karate Chopper Dragon Lee is, once again, on truly exhilarating form! Highlights include some solid Ron Van Clief beat-downs, flamboyant martial art motocross prowess, exceedingly rare usage of the deadly 'Nut Cracker' fist, an enjoyably greasy funk score and, most importantly, no shortage of sinewy skell slayer, Dragon Lee!!!
