    It is worth the watch IMO
    Nothing ground breaking
    The story could have been stronger but overall
    It was not a waste of time

    Cool, I'll check out Man of Iron fist. I was gonna add this but I hated the Rush Hour series, anyone? It's not really kung fu but a really stupid unfunny buddy cop movie, Chris Tucker is not funny.

    You could say that I'm a Big Trouble in Little China junkie. I've seen it at least half a dozen times. Gotta go with it, although The Last Dragon is a great flick.

    Big Trouble is the stronger movie overall, but I felt Last Dragon had more memorable characters. cmon it had rapping Asians and square black folks that owned a pizzeria joint! and a bad guy whos black but is basically Japanese!

    Also, main character has best martial artist name of all time. Bruce Lee-roy.

    Also it had Vanity in it.

    Vanity.

    tell em how about her Rooq!

    yeah Rush Hour 1 was okay.. the next 2 were crap and got old fast and agree it's not a kung fu film

    Regarding Man in w/ the Iron Fists. Just go in with low expectations and be entertained. Story is weak but it has a lot of ass kicking and fighting with a very diverse cast. You have black folks, asian folks and white folks beating the crap out of each other.. I thought RZA did a decent job directing a entertaining movie.

    Still no where near the Big Trouble or The Last Dragon .. Thanks op for reminding me about the last dragon. Forgot about obtaining the "GLOW!"

    People must have missed the boat on Black Dynamite

    Black Dynamite is in the same league with these two.. awesome flick!

    Isn't black dynamite more of a blaxploitation though? But then again it does have some sort of martial arts in it.

    Yeah, Black Dynamite is GREAT movie, but shouldn't be compared to The Last Dragon and Little China. Black Dynamite is a spoof. Last Dragon and Little China are aware of their campiness, but are films that are "playing it straight" if that makes sense.

    But if you haven't seen Black Dynamite you are in for a treat! I found the use and explanation of the p*rn stars absolutely hilarious...

    ****, Deck, when some wild-ass, eight foot tall maniac grabs your neck, smacks the back of your favorite head up against the bar wall...then he looks you crooked in the eye and asks you if you've paid your dues, you just stare that big sumbitch right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yes Sir!!!, the check is in the mail."
