Chinese Connection 2

This is hands down the best Bruce exploitation film you will see. I just got this delivered to me today. Now this didn't have the same production value as it's predecessor the Bruce Lee classic but it was a worthy sequel. I urge martial art fans to not miss this one. These films were very cheaply made and written but some of them were actually good such as this one. I would also say this is Bruce Li's best movie.

I enjoyed this follow up to Bruce Lee's 1st Chinese Connection(aka FISTS OF FURY-it's original title). Bruce Li is my next famous successor to Bruce Lee. And the fact that he plays Bruce's brother in yhis sequel made me very happy. It's a good action, martial arts film. There is also some drama involved. Mainly with the teacher/students of the Ching-Wu kung fu school trying to move on and adjust to the loss of Bruce Lee's character, Chen. And Li coming into there lives and trying to help them move on and giving them inspiration is well done. Good action/drama film. The film is the English dubbed version. There is no Chinese language audio available. The film looks like it is in full tact. No edits visible throughout the film. Still, a good Chinese martial movie.

Bruce Li ("Dynamo") stars in this direct sequel to Bruce Lee's 1972 hit "The Chinese Connection" (aka "Fist of Fury") and plays Chen Shan, the fictitious brother of Chen Zhen, who was the fictitious student of the ACTUAL Huo Yuanjia. While nearly identical in theme, it's less effective in its portrayal of China's burgeoning external hatred & internal nationalism than the original, despite it carrying over some of the same music and cast members.This takes place immediately after the events of the first film, with the Jingwu school mourning the death of Chen Zhen (Bruce Lee's character from the first flick) and again falling victim to humiliation and violence at the hands of the occupying Japanese. The northern invaders are headed by Miyamoto (Lo Lieh, "King Boxer"), whose divide-and-conquer approach to dismantling the Chinese schools seems to be moving along effortlessly, until the 25-minute mark, when Li enters the town to visit his brother's grave and discovers what's going on. Well, the apple didn't fall too far from the other apple and Li starts giving the Japanese what for, much to the fear of his fellow countrymen, who admire Li, but wish him to leave peacefully.While this film leaves much to be desired, it's not bad and takes itself seriously. This is probably the most serious and humorless work of Bruce Li's that I've seen. If the fight choreography had been given the same approach, this could've been a minor classic. The fisticuffs aren't awful for 1977 but there's nothing particularly interesting about them either. Quantity-wise, there are numerous fights, occuring frequently, but again, they ain't really all that great. Even the finale is just okay. On the annoying side, the trampoline-aided jumps that are normally used gingerly (if at all) in old-school fu, show up here in great abundance. And, despite the deceptive cover, no nunchuks!The Platinum Disc Corporation's DVD boasts a digitally "Mastered" picture. Not RE-mastered but mastered. Considering that, the picture quality is decent and old-school fans have had to endure much worse. I also don't recall the fullscreen treatment being an issue. The dialogue is only available in an English-dub with NO subtitle options. No special features either but I really wasn't expecting any. I can't really recommend it but if you are a big fan of the original "Chinese Connection", you may enjoy the continuation of the story and, at the very least, are unlikely to be insulted by it.1977. aka: Fist of Fury 2.

Cool DVD and great deal.

Very poor picture quality. Fuzzy. Hard to tell what's happening.

Great

None

The movie itself is a descent copy, but the famous nunchaku scene depicted on the cover is deleted. Sad when you wait the whole movie for a specific scene and some one decides to hijack it. NO BUENO!!!

ok
