Get ready for some seriously big hair. The Last Dragon--or, to call it by its full title, Berry Gordy's the Last Dragon--is a stunning example of 1980s camp cinema. One-name kung fu wonder Taimak plays Leroy Green, a.k.a. Bruce Leroy, a humble student of kung fu who has achieved the highest level of skill, but hasn't yet found his inner master. Wandering through the streets of New York in a Chinese peasant outfit, he accidentally becomes the protector of nightclub hostess/video jockey Laura Charles (played by former Prince protege Vanity, who also costarred in the trash classic Action Jackson). She's being threatened by a height-challenged mobster who wants her to play his girlfriend's video (the girlfriend is something of a Cyndi Lauper look-alike, played by Broadway star Faith Prince). Meanwhile, a man who calls himself Sho'Nuff, the Shogun of Harlem, wants to kick Leroy's ass and prove himself the baddest kung fu master in town. Add to this Leroy's smart-mouthed brother Richie (who calls Leroy "the chocolate-covered yellow peril"), a dregs-of-Motown soundtrack (DeBarge is a high point), ninja battles, pseudo-Eastern philosophical babble, and a jaw-dropping club performance by Vanity, and you have a hilarious example of why we're all so very glad the '80s are over. Featuring a bit role by William H. Macy (Fargo, Magnolia). --Bret Fetzer

 Sum Dum Goy January 6, 2009
This is without a doubt the funniest oath to the Bruce Lee Legend in an 80's pop music Harlem atmosphere without doing damage to the Legend of Bruce nor disrespect. If you got to mention something highly irritating it would be 2nd rate supposedly tough crook Eddy Arkadian. Could have picked a million better to cast for bad guy. Then again nobody could have done a better job on the SHONUFF character! That man is absolutely genius! I'd bet he is the SHONUFF untill the brother dies. Too bad the TAIMAK did not really become famous in his day. Fast providing by amazon and best of quality.

the movie is a great film in which a person is searching everywhere for something that is with in himself the only place he has not searched for it
The Last Dragon Fan Review December 1, 2008
This is a very good quality movie, but I am a little bias. I grew up watching this movie and hearing quotes from it from my older brothers. It has a fair amount of action and some music that will get stuck in your head by the end. I thought the movie had a good unique personality for an action/music/romance/comedy movie. It is from the '80s so fans of strictly newer movies may not like this because of the music, style, and language in the movie. It is definitely a memorable movie and one that I think everybody should watch at least once even if you're not a big action fan because it has a good mix of a lot of elements. It is one of the only movies that I can watch a lot of times in a short period and not get bored. Get some friends and watch this movie, but just don't take it too seriously though because you will miss out on a lot of good moments in the movie.
Just What I Ordered October 18, 2008
I am very pleased with my purchasing experience and product from Amazon! I watched this movie soon after it's arrival, and it brought back so many good memories. I received just what I ordered in excellent condition and in a timely manner. Great job, Amazon.
