Bruce Lee has just died, but the BSI is swinging into action to salvage the situation. Aided by the brilliant Professor Lucas, cells from the martial arts master's body are removed and grown into three adult Bruce Lee clones. After undergoing training to bring their skills up to the level of their 'father', the three are sent out to battle crime, with one sent to take on a gold smuggler, and the other two teaming up to shut down an evil mad scientist.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

With the news of actor Bruce Lee's sudden death in July 1973 from a mysterious brain aneurysm at the age of 32 it's decided by Mr. Colin of the SBI-Special Branch of Investigations-to have a sample of Bruce's brain used to have him cloned into not one but three Bruce Lee's to fight crime in the orient. It's a task given to mad professor Lucas who as we'll soon see has plans of his own in using the Lee's to do his insane bidding; Which is to kill each other in mortal combat for his own sick entertainment!The Lee's get involved with a number of bad guys in the movie one a film director who uses his job as cover to smuggle gold bars out of the country-Hong Kong-and have Bruce murdered while staring in his movie as a cover to his crimes as well as increase the film's box-office returns. There's another crazed psycho who plans to create a army of free rang and grass fed men of steel or bronze to take over the world and make him the supreme dictator. And then finally Professor Lucas himself who's just plain crazy who plans to destroy the very thing or things that he created the Lee's just for the fun of doing it! Played for laughs the movie does in fact have a number of great fight scenes with the three Lee's doing their best to imitate the late Bruce Lee but falling a bit short. There's also in the movie a number of shocking but very titillating T&A scenes-With naked and very busty Chinese girls running around on the beach-in the film that are in fact far better then any of the action scenes in it. Worth watching in seeing just how influential the late Bruce Lee was in that his death didn't put an end to his career but made him far more popular then he was when alive. That to the point of movie studios raising Bruce from the dead in order to do it!

THE CLONES OF BRUCE LEE is perhaps the ultimate Bruceploitation film, featuring no less than three Bruce Lee imitators (and two of those are the hard-working Dragon Lee and Bruce Le). It starts off with the depiction of the death of the real Bruce Lee, only to have his body claimed by a mad scientist (Jon Benn, who starred in CHALLENGE OF THE TIGER and WAY OF THE DRAGON) who proceeds to replicate three clones from it.This action-packed tale then follows each clone as he engages in training routines before being sent off on special missions, typically performing assassinations and the like. Eventually they turn on each other. The whole thing was brought to you courtesy of infamous exploitation director Dick Randall, whose CHALLENGE OF THE TIGER is a mini masterpiece of its type. THE CLONES OF BRUCE LEE isn't, but it's still a must for trash fans.There's no denying the slapdash nature of this film, which was shot in Thailand and the Philippines. While the plot is more involved than your regular kung fu outing, the fight scenes feel very laboured and predictable; the Bruce Lee imitators spend too much time copying Bruce Lee instead of showing much in the way of real skill themselves. I feel they did better work elsewhere. Still, on the other hand, the viewer does get treated to Bolo Yeung (DOUBLE IMPACT), gratuitous nudity, training scenes set to stolen ROCKY music, and a general air of ineptness and anything-goes cult appeal.

Whaaam Baaam Duuuuush Dussssh Aiyyyyyyyyyy ! That's the sound of these so-called Bruce Lee's clones whacking each others and their enemies. And that is also the sound of my stomach whilst watching this film.First up; none of the Bruce Lee's clones look like the original (it debunks the fact that they are are clones, LOL) and the fighting scenes looks as original as watching the election result of an African country.The storyline, if any, is laughable. I may not know if it the preferred storyline back then in '77, but in the millenia, it is not so cool anymore.And the film simply take matters too far. Even with the advancement of technology of 2010, no doctors can revived a person back to life, if the person has been dead for 20mins. But back then, it is possible! And the dubbing makes the film a whole lot hilarious. Like when Bruce Lee told the doctor in an impressive English, "I am killing you for the heinous thing you have done to me!" I mean, WOW ! A good watch if you like to watch a comedy from '70s, but don't watch it if you a a Bruce Lee fan.

This movie is awfully funny, leaving one with an awkward sense of time warp. Secret British intelligence (as secret as unheard of ) summons brilliant scientist for an equally secret operation in a hospital. So the Bond guy calls the professor, they ride to the hospital...picture this, and when they arrive Bruce Lee has been dead for only 20 minutes! So the scientist engineers three morons supposed to be clones of Bruce Lee, but who look credible with sunglasses only, at not less than 20 meters distance. Here we have another common ploy similar to Remo Williams, 6 millions dollar man etc: disaster gives intelligence agency the opportunity to engineer superheroes, who are brainwashed using a pasta bowl & carnival electronic equipment (EG a €29,99 karaoke set ). They are trained by Bolo Yeung...mind this...the AAA+ secret underground facility looks more like the cellar of a third grade middle school in ruins, than a Bond-styled base. They learn awfully fast and are soon having conniptions while a slightly altered version of the Rocky music plays. One of them is dispatched to get rid of some gold smuggler working under the cover of the movie industry...needless to say the Bruce clone is an instant hit. Ultimate fight ensues in what seems a dump, and the thug tries to escape sailing away on board of a ship more attuned to XIX century China...where is Wong Fei Hung? The other two are dispatched to get rid of a thai drug kingpin-scientist whose AAA+ world-threatening laboratory is located in a barn and run by two hindu morons with hollow teeth, the answer to Dr. NO, Hugo Drax etc. This low-budgeter tries to cross the line with shots in Thailand. The evil scientists turns dozy Thais wearing ancient Japanese swimming suits into bronze warriors, but it is easy to open their mouth and stuff it with handfuls of grass, enough to kill them. Audio is out of synchrony, so they hit the bronze warriors and ten second later we hear "deng!". When the scientist who created the clones (the same man who played "boss" in the way of the dragon ) gets rewarded with a hefty "well-done" in front of the picture of a teen aged queen Elizabeth (this tells you how recent the movie is ), he goes berserk in resentment and wants to dominate the world with the best Bruce after a lethal combat between the three. Sympathetic nurse unplugs the brain-control machine controls and final battle ensues. Acting? Pardon? SFX? Pardon? Ten seconds of nudity with chubby thai sunbathers. Fights are very mediocre. Plot is paper thin & poorly stitched together. Image quality very mediocre.
