No it's not. It Bruce LE. The cover (Finnish version) of this gem cries out "Bruce Lee" with a picture of the "real" Bruce Lee with nunchakus. Go figure. In spite of the (misleading) big name marketing, I suspect that 99% of all the people you have ever met, have never even heard of this wonderfully bad movie.
Let's start with the title: Bruce and the Shaolin Bronzemen
The main character is called Hwang Lung, so what's up with the "Bruce"? Also, one would easily conclude that the Shaolin Bronzemen are the reason or/and the cause of whatever is the movie is about. What if I told you that all of them get wiped out in the middle of the movie and that the incident has no reason in terms of the plot or the characters?
It's very confusing to watch this movie, because the events and dialogue in this movie seem to have little or no reason or meaning.
I've never even been to Asia, so I might not fully understand everything, but where I come from, it's highly unusual that by daylight you might encounter a sober, grown man who you've never met and who's eager to know which one's stronger of you two. If this ever happened to me, at least I wouldn't be too happy to find out.
With all the realism and reason in most today's movies this was briskly anarchistic in terms of boring rules of movie making. See it if you have a chance!!!
