About the film
Leroy Green (aka “Bruce Leeroy”), an inner-city youth and kung fu afficionado whose idol is Bruce Lee, learns from his master that he has nearly risen to the ultimate level of martial arts mastery known as “The Last Dragon” which will imbue him with a mystical power called The Glow. Green thus embarks on a quest through the gritty streets of New York to track down another master who may be able to help him to achieve this special goal. However, a real bad dude known as Sho’nuff, the self-proclaimed “Shogun of Harlem”, catches wind of Leroy’s abilities and challenges the youth to a duel to see whose fighting skills glow the brightest and who deserves to wear the crown as the baddest butt-kicker in the city!
Released in 1985, this film broke with tradition by featuring a mostly-black cast in a kung-fu action movie. Additionally, it was produced by Motown’s head-honcho Barry Gordy and, as a result, boasts a soundtrack that includes the smooth sounds of artists like DeBarge, Smokey Robinson, The Temptations, Rockwell, and Stevie Wonder. This action-packed martial arts extravaganza and cinematic time-machine back to the ’80s is a cult classic that you’ll never forget!
