I stumbled upon this film by accident. As a martial arts enthusiast and a movie addict, I was curious about how much would be left of Brandon Lee without the story, setting and atmosphere "The Crow" provided. At first glance, this is your avarage 13-in-a-dozen martial arts film, following the likes of Van Damme. (and we all know that apart from a few good, he also made some awfully bad trash)

The story is thin (read the plot for yourself) and cliché, which is usually enough to write it off, if it weren't for Brandon, who holds up surprisingly well (this could very well have ended up in something that would make us all cringe.) Brandon, who plays Jake Lo (mostly referred to as "kid" by the other characters in the film) has got trip hammers for fists, feet that kick like David Beckham and the agility of a cat. Fans of good fight sequences will not be disappointed. For the ones who prefer collateral damage: plenty of cars get blown up along the way.

But this guy isn't just someone who kicks butt. During all the life endangering situations the main character continues to find him in (Lady Luck was as much on Jake's side as Brandon himself) Lee manages to throw in some emotions as well. From mixed anger and regret when he's forced to kill someone, to the glares that melt steel and makes glass wish it could go back to being sand, the guy's got it all. I think this makes him a superior actor than his father.

What also adds to the movie are Brandon's looks. With his reputation as a martial artist, his physical perfection was anticipated. The fact that he also has a handsome face was a nice surprise (all poudered up like a porcelain doll in "the crow" made it hard to see what he really looked like).

Brandon Lee plays Jake Lo, an art student who inadvertently witnesses a murderer shoot someone. Before long he is in danger even from people who were supposed to protect him, but finds salvation in the form of Ryan (Powers Boothe), an old officer who has been trying to catch the killer for many years.
Clichés aside, this is one enjoyable, if very violent, movie. Brandon shows not only charisma (whether or not being the son of Bruce Lee helped here is anyone's guess) but passable acting ability (he really seems scared when his character is being shot at) and, of course, great unarmed combat skills, which are demonstrated in some nicely-choreographed scraps. Some bits seem influenced by his father, and others have been influenced by classic Hong Kong Jackie Chan movies (many coming from 'Police Story', but I noticed a couple reminiscent of 'Dragons Forever'), but none really detract from the watchability of this role.
Action fans will love it; just don't expect anything too original.

Brandon Lee had made a couple of mainstream American films before coming to this project, notably 'Showdown In Little Tokyo' with Dolf Lundgren. This film is a little different but still follows a lot of tried and tested themes- merging substitute father with buddy buddy and good cop, bad cop routines to good effect. The martial arts on display are very, very well done. All nice crisp actions with true fluidity to them rather than the over the top nonsense hollywood tends to push out. At least most of the fight scenes were choreographed by Lee himself.
What really shines out in this film though, is Brandon Lee himelf, natural and relaxed in front of the camera, oozing confidence and showing an acting potential which would be realised in the film The Crow, which would tragically end his all too brief career.
Often overlooked, actually very good and well worth watching today.

Brandon Lee is Jake Lo, art student who witnesses a mob shooting, and his life is on the line. Brandon puts in a stunning performance in his first lead title film. The action is fast paced, the fight scenes superbly choreographed, and the humour is excellently delivered. A must see!!

😍best action film you will see in years, oh and by the way-one of the best looking actors of all time, Brandon Lee!
Yes he's Bruce Lee's son, but on his own merits, Brandon shows just what a fantastic actor and martial artist he was in his own rights!
Brilliant film, brilliant action, brilliant acting! What more do you want in 1 film, huh?
Well worth getting. You won't be disappointed.

Brandon brings confidence, charm and a lythe athleticism to this fast paced action picture. His obvious charisma elevates what would have otherwise been a fairly standard movie to something much better. The thin plot has him going into protective custody after being witness to a mob hit but since cops are on the mob's payroll it isn't long before he's fighting for his life. The action set pieces are very well done and since this is 1992 they don't suffer from "shakey cam". I had this on VHS and used to rewind fight scenes just to watch him perform. The story is uncomplicated and Brandon can act, so you get a sense that his character is in real danger at times. Good production values meant that there were decent locations and sets and they also managed to surround Brandon with actors like Powers Boothe. Dwight H Little produced this so I guess a Van Damme or a Segal type person could have been cast instead.....they wouldn't have been as good though.
