Get ready for some seriously big hair. The Last Dragon--or, to call it by its full title, Berry Gordy's the Last Dragon--is a stunning example of 1980s camp cinema. One-name kung fu wonder Taimak plays Leroy Green, a.k.a. Bruce Leroy, a humble student of kung fu who has achieved the highest level of skill, but hasn't yet found his inner master. Wandering through the streets of New York in a Chinese peasant outfit, he accidentally becomes the protector of nightclub hostess/video jockey Laura Charles (played by former Prince protégé Vanity, who also costarred in the trash classic Action Jackson). She's being threatened by a height-challenged mobster who wants her to play his girlfriend's video (the girlfriend is something of a Cyndi Lauper look-alike, played by Broadway star Faith Prince). Meanwhile, a man who calls himself Sho'Nuff, the Shogun of Harlem, wants to kick Leroy's ass and prove himself the baddest kung fu master in town. Add to this Leroy's smart-mouthed brother Richie (who calls Leroy "the chocolate-covered yellow peril"), a dregs-of-Motown soundtrack (DeBarge is a high point), ninja battles, pseudo-Eastern philosophical babble, and a jaw-dropping club performance by Vanity, and you have a hilarious example of why we're all so very glad the '80s are over. Featuring a bit role by William H. Macy (Fargo, Magnolia). --Bret Fetzer

Ian M. Santos (Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA)
This is one of them classic 80's movies that I felt I needed in my collection. It really captured the era great... I mean, people back in the 1980's used to glow, right?
Seriously, it's a great movie. You gotta watch it.

Classic! August 29, 2008
VaNessa (Brooklyn, NY United States)
This is hands down, one of the best urban-type movies from the 1980's!! So much so that my brothers, cousins, friends and I still find ourselves making references to various scenes 'til this day. It was like we really lived this movie during our childhood, not to mention practiced some of 'Bruce Leroy's' martial art moves as well. Plus, he is just so handsome and charismatic with his "moves" in the movie, you'll fall in love with him and his character. I love this movie so much, I'm going to surprise my 2 brothers with a copy of this movie for each of them for X-mas this year!:)
