Enter the Dragon
1973
Say “kung-fu movie” and the first image that comes to mind is shirtless Bruce Lee, chest scarred, hands in fighting position. The star’s final completed film would cement him as a real-life superhero, and to see Lee plow through men in a flurry of fists, feet, and flying nunchuks is to understand how he turned martial arts into a global phenomenon. The last battle, in which Lee fights in a hall of mirrors, is an all-time banger.
