This movie has a montage where the villain holds auditions for henchmen who all have their own gimmick, special ability, and resume. This movie is good.
Patrick WillemsMy favorite movie of all time. I watched this as a kid and was obsessed. Its still something I watch here and there. Truly fun ride. The music, THE FASHION, the action, all these elements make it a great film from the 80s. HIGHLY recommend. Like, u have to see this one.
ScottMescudi84Jan 5, 202058 Less a movie about martial-arts genre fare than the cross-cultural influence it brought to black audiences. Fun and campy, and respectful of Bruce Lee's mythology as an icon.

If The Last Dragon were a cocktail, this would be the recipe 1 pt Afro-Kung Fu 1 pt autistic cutie-patootie love story 1/2 pt 1980's music video Shake and enjoy! God this movie was so silly and fun! I had an absolute blast. It's got a great ensemble cast and all the…
swagJan 9, 2023I’d trade the entire MCU for a sequel to this bad boy. Taimak & Vanity are one of the cutest couples of the 80’s.

Taimak was 19 when doing the martial arts and stunts in this movie. When I was 19, I once missed the same bus twice in a row.
nomenclatureAug 9, 2019"Just direct-a your feets-a to Daddy Green's pizza" - Daddy Green, Sho' nuff is in fact the meanest, the baddest, the coolest, the broad shoulderedest, the jerkiest, whatever he wants... sho' nuff. In the Last Dragon, you follow Bruce Lee obsessed Leroy Green (aka…
{Todd}Jan 22, 2026I SAW THE LEROY GLOW The Last Dragon is a wild ride. Part martial arts film, part 80s music video - and 100 percent camp. All the characters are so memorable, from how silly/weird each on is to the amaxing outfits all around. Leroy Green is a lovable, autistic goofball of…

On of my favs of all time. Is it cheesy, Yes! is it over the top at times, Yes, is the soundtrack 🔥 YES! Sho’nuff is amazing, this for sure is one of my guilty pleasures!!
Da channel Fire likedThe Last Dragonthis was just awesome. like, I couldn't tell who this was racist towards (everyone)? it also has the budget of a porno. I think the movie also reads a lot differently if you view the main character as extremely autistic. anyway, I unironically got a kick out of this movie.
Alex is "meh" onThe Last DragonI watched this with my dad for my dad. It was alright, had some fun moments. Soundtrack was fun, and I liked the 80’s vibe. Otherwise I guess I don’t have a whole lot to say

My late father introduced me to this movie as a child so it will always hold a special place in my heart. Sho’nuff is iconic! I would love to see a remake of this film
Nera lovedThe Last DragonBruce Leroy!!!🤗❤️❤️ Love this movie!!! It will never die!! One of my favorite movies growing up. The songs….the characters….unmatched‼️ Sho Nuff 😂🤣☠️
Brandon Schilling dislikedThe Last DragonYou’d think a movie with a guy named Bruce Leroy and a man that call himself the “Shogun of Harlem” would be more fun
- Zero likedThe Last Dragon
“Old cheesy karate movie” it’s very very cheesy but still worth a watch with the family ig (5/10)
Angela H lovedThe Last Dragon"Am I the meanest? Am I the prettiest?" - Sho'nuff Cult classic at its finest!!

Take out the gangsters, pump up the Shogun role, give Taimak and Vanity a little more screen time, and you'd have a great entertainment instead of simply a great near-miss.
Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
The new martial-arts picture The Last Dragon is first and foremost a romantic comedy, and a very sweet one at that, and that's why it's martial-arts combat scenes work so well. We've been given enough time to care about who's kicking the stuffing out of whom.
