Its silly how chopped together this is. Even worse than the Pink Panther movie after Peter Sellers died.
when they need "Bruce" to look up in one scene, they cut to a scene in Way of the Dragon with a completely different background. They have his double wear giant sunglasses indoors. Theres shots of "Bruce" from the neck down here and there so they dont have to show someone elses face.
All the footage from Bruce Lee fighting at the end makes as much sense in the context of the film, as it does without it, so not much
Everybody should just skip the whole thing, go straight for those 2 and a half fights with the yellow jumpsuit and that's it
What a terrible, terrible piece of film. Game of Death AKA How Many Ways Can We Hide the Fact That We Don't Have Bruce Lee? exists only to set up the only 10 minutes Bruce Lee filmed just before his death. The ludicrous plot involves an evil talent agency who try to kill him when he won't sign, and footage from Bruce's real funeral. Shameful. Also shameful: Sammo Hung loses a fight to Bob Wall. COME ON! There are even a couple of Academy award winners in there, one of which looks drunk for most of the film. All this for Bruce vs. Kareem Abdul Jabar? Seems so.

I've seen the 40 minutes of actual footage with Bruce Lee but have no urge to watch the rest. :/sqcat
Even the action scenes without Bruce Lee are really good, especially the motorcycle sequence. Too bad about nearly every other aspect of the movie.Esnaider
