Bruce Lee: The Man, The Myth / Prisoner of Five Boulders: EastWest, our favorite dollar DVD company released yet another disc of kung fu movies of questionable legality. We get an interesting mix here but nothing special.

Bruce Lee: The Man, The Myth is a highly fictionalized account of his life and death starring Bruce Li. The film is rather dull and I found myself dozing off quite a bit.

Prisoner of Five boulders is another of the Mainland Chinese features that somehow got in the hands of some pranksters with a dubbing studio. The origin of the dubs on this is somewhat of a mystery but it is quite obvious they tried to follow in the footsteps of Woody Allen with his famous, "What's Up Tiger Lily?" and the old Pete Smith comedies. The problem is, this dub made me smirk a bit but it had no quotable lines and outside of hearing the emperor sing "Like a Virgin" I can't really remember anything happening in the film that was particularly funny.

When you spend a dollar on crap, you should expect nothing more.
