the film chen takes on a russian powerhouse known for bending metal bars in an exciting battle of styles and temperaments chen responds to each one of petrov's powerful attacks with vicious strikes and kicks that leave the russian constantly on the ropes although by no means brief this fight is shockingly one-sided [Music] number nine mr lee and roper vs hans men enter the dragon as enter the dragon reaches its conclusion hans private martial arts tournaments erupts into a massive brawl after roper takes out the crime lord's main guard roper and mr lee come together to take
on an army of hans goons with the heroes eventually being aided by a group of prisoners held captive on the island [Music] the whole sequence is chaotic and a sight to behold with lee looking in full control as he takes on multiple opponents without breaking a sweat lee probably could have taken on all of han's henchmen on his own number eight chen chen versus hiroshi suzuki fist of fury everything in fist of fury is leading up to the battle between jingwoo schools chen chen and the hungku dojo's master hiroshi suzuki a scheming murderer directly responsible
for the death of chen's teacher suzuki fearfully hides behind a katana as he desperately tries to keep the hero and his nunchuks at a distance the weapons represent the conflicting ideologies of the jingwoo school and the hong koo dojo while chen smashing suzuki multiple times in the face represents well that the protagonist is not especially fond of his opponent while the fight is on the shorter side every blow stresses the fact that chen and suzuki want to kill each other and one of them eventually succeeds [Music] number seven mr lee versus han enter the dragon
following a solid fight that ends with a spear stuck in a wall lee chases han into a room of mirrors more of a psychological than a physical fight lee and han engage in a cat and mouse contest as the hero struggles to pick out the real villain from the many illusions caused by the mirrors [Music] bolstered by splendid cinematography and an intensity that does not let up for a second enter the dragon's final battle stands out as a unique experience in bruce lee's impressive catalog of cinematic action scenes number six bruce lee as billy lowe

and desperate as the battle progresses culminating in a fantastic and narratively complementary final move number four mr lee vs o'hara enter the dragon this is less of a contest and more of a prolonged execution mr lee meets o'hara the man responsible for his sister's death in a shady martial arts tournament and then proves that revenge is a dish best served with multiple blows to the head [Music] while bob walls o'hara presents an imposing figure the martial artist is absolutely dismantled by lee once the desperate killer brings a broken bottle into play o'hara's fate is sealed
