THE LAST DRAGON (1985) TWIN BROTHERS FIRST TIME WATCHING MOVIE REACTION!

[@djb10]

This movie was produced by Berry Gordy, founder of Motown, hence the dope music. A few of the songs are sung by Willie Hutch, a major music staple for lot of the 70's blaxploitation moves. Vanity (RIP) (the love interest) used to be Prince's protégé. The song/ video that Vanity introduces is by DeBarge, they used to be on Motown & were pegged to be the next Jackson 5. & Taimak (Bruce Leroy) is a real matrial artist.

[@OctoKrool]

I could tell Taimak was the real deal, those kicks were clean as hell!

[@Valecan]

@@OctoKrool Y'all should go check out his wiki page and imdb. He is no joke with his skill in martial arts. I love this movie for what it is, it is a strange parody and homage to martial arts movies. Great reaction from y'all again, keep up the great work.

[@pedward323]

@@OctoKrool Yes to all what was written by the above commenter.Also Vanity was Prince protege and apart of his girlls group Vanity 6 and his girlfriend.at one point before she did this movie. She was suppose to be the lead in Purple Rain but they had a bad breakup. Also the little sister is Keshia Knight Pullium from the Cosby show who played Rudy.Then you also had actor William H Gracy who played JJ the director on the video show.

This movie holds a special place for those of us who grew up with it. There were remake rumors for years...which I could do without, except that Samuel L Jackson was supposed to be the new Sho'nuff, which would have been bad-ass. I would have liked to see that.

[@mztweety1374]

Wait, what? That would be hilarious

[@happyninja42]

Honestly I'd rather not see Sam Jackson as Sho-Nuff. I wouldn't actually think of him as Sho Nuff. He'd just be Sam Jackson. I'd rather they picked someone else to be a new generation Sho Nuff, because at this point, it would be better to have Bruce Leroy be the new teacher for a new hero, and give him his own new villain.

"Hadouken!" "The Glow" along with Marvel's "Iron Fist" were both heavily inspired by "Five Fingers of Death" (AKA "King Boxer") 1972, a favorite in the NY grindhouse theaters in the 70's along with "Enter the Dragon" and the blaxploitation movies that "The Last Dragon" is inspired by.

The woman who played Angela (Eddie's girlfriend) can actually sing. She just did such a good job playing the kooky, ditsy girlfriend role and was able to even sing 'in character'. Her name is Faith Prince. Them cutting to Laura in Seventh Heaven was to introduce the love interest and venue for the final showdown. And also show why Eddie wants her to play Angela's music so bad. One of my favorite movies of all time, glad you guys enjoyed! Y'all had me cracking up.

[@DanJackson1977]

This movie succeeds at being silly as hell yet cool as fuck. Btw that scene in the movie theater... that's really not to far off from how it used to be in old New York or big city movie theaters in the 70s when they played Bruce Lee or kung fu movies. It was a fuckin party.. and for some people, these movies were like a religion..like people responded to the philosophy in kung fu movies (like Bruce Leroy did). Its hard to describe but theres a reason WuTang Clan was a thing. Bruce Lee alone had a HUGE black following back then... that's why when Lee made his first and only "Hollywood" movie (Enter the Dragon, shown here), the studio recognised this and put Jim Kelly, another great martial artist, in the movie to represent the black audience (he later starred in his own movies, like Black Belt Jones)

Thanks for doin this movie guys! I was ten when my dad took me to see this in the movie theater.

The workers at the movie theater had the nerve to tell the audience not to yell out their favorite quotes...yeah...that went over well...lol

[@dboslice]

Yeah, Sho'Nuff was the definitely the highlight of the movie and one of the greatest villains in marital arts history. Sho'Nuff and Simon Phoenix (Wesley Snipes in Demolition Man) are two of my favorite marital arts villains 💯😂. I really wished they had a chance to make a part 2 to this. Make it where Leroy married Vanity character and they have a baby and Sho'Nuff in jail training and kicking other prisoners ass to prove that he's still The Master, then he break out, kidnap Leroy baby and doesn't return him unless he gets a rematch. That would have been a hell of a sequel 🔥🔥🔥 Rest in peace to Julius Carry. Great performance and also to Vanity, she was very beautiful. Had a crush on her when I seen this movie, so I felt for Leroy brother in this film lol. Also rest in peace to the Richie actor as well, I forgot his name. Losing a lot of good people man😔🙏🌹🌹🌹

It’s so ridiculous and yet cool like a Mortal Kombat comedy. During our 20s (2005-2006) my sister and I actually had the privilege of hiring Taimak aka The Bruce Leroy as our own personal trainer in New York City at his private Fitness and Wellness Studio gym. He was always so fun and inspirational in his training. We confessed that we had huge crush on him as Bruce Leroy and he told us about his filming experience of his classic first movie role. He even told us he dated late actress Vanity from the movie but she was really into drugs and partying bc she used to be with Prince. We met Taimak’s mom and his friends at a restaurant that he and his mom opened in NYC. He loves his family and fans.

[@corycobb5360]

The little boy at the end. His name is Ernie Reyes. He was a black belt already. Bruce Leroy Green was and still is an actual marital artist. They had to teach him how to act for this.

I love that they appreciate the song because I've randomly had it in my head for years. " when you reach the upper level your mind, body, and soul become one. it's a sacrifice it takes power. it's a way of life. when you got that glow! " R.I.P. Vanity. because of my love of Prince and the revolution as a kid of course I had that crush on her.

The kid Ernie Reyes starred in teenage mutant ninja turtles 3. Also in surf ninjas along with his dad. The last dragon is one of my most favorite 80s movies
