'Storming Attacks' aka 'The image of Bruce Lee (1978) – Yueng Kuen.

Another perky, perpetually punch-packed, kick-crazy, eagle-fisted example of gonzoid Brucesploitation with powerhouse Bruce Li. Goofy dubbing, crash zooms, soothingly muffled Foley, pirated film themes, Bolo Yeung, crude editing, and Bruce Lee's agent going Gung Ho after a criminal counterfeiting gang. To give the director credit, a great number of the energetic fight scenes are enticingly fleet, and well choreographed. 'Storming Attacks', while low budget, is one of the more demonstratively hard rocking examples of 70s Brucesploitation. I personally dig on the urban Kung Fu flicks, the denim, bell-bottom cords, snug turtleneck sweaters, and tracksuits aesthetic is tha bomb!

'Pulling a big one draws a lot more heat!' Right on!!!!
