Birth of the Dragon

(2017)Directed by George Nolfi103 min · PG-13Action, Drama
“The Fight That Created The Legend”

Bruce Lee (Philip Ng Wan-lung) is a young, cocky martial artist in 1964 San Francisco, teaching Chinatown a style that breaks the old rules. He challenges the kung fu master Wong Jack Man (Xia Yu) to a fight that stays secret. George Nolfi frames it through Steve McKee (Billy Magnussen), a student caught between them, and Lee has to stand behind every word he has spoken.
