EditMeng long guo jiang (1972)

'Colosseum i Rom blev til ruiner, da dragen slog til!' Sådan lød den fornøjelige slaglinje tilbage ved filmens oprindelige danske premiere og nu er der endelig biografgensyn med denne forrygende karatefilm, der byder på den unikke kamp mellem Bruce Lee og Chuck Norris. Måske den mest mindeværdige kampscene nogensinde filmet? Filmen er optaget on location og det var allersidste gang, der blev givet tilladelse til at filme indenfor Colosseums mure.

Bruce Lee is Tang Lung and Chuck Norris is Colt in this 1972 highest-grossing film in Hong Kong. It tells the story of a man who goes to Rome, Italy to visit his relatives at their restaurant. Unfortunately, this is not an idyllic family gathering because the girl, Chen Ching-hua and her uncle, Wang are in big trouble. Tang Lung is ready to help them defend against a brutal gangster. The big boss sends men to harass the restaurant’s owners because he wants their property. After a number of battles, Ho, the mafia boss’s subordinate, hires an exceptional martial artist named Colt. Tand and Colt go to fight at the Colosseum but this battle ends with Colt’s death. This is not all - an unexpected betrayal leads to the death of more people.
