Directed by Justin Lin
Twitter Facebook Google+Overview
In 1973, martial arts great Bruce Lee died, his final film, Game of Death, left unfinished. With the public hungry for more Lee, movie execs decide to find a replacement. This outrageous satire looks at the entire process, from the oddball candidates to the greed and racial motivations that drive the final decision. There’s big business in the movies, and Finishing the Game skewers it with an eye for ‘70s detail.

Viewing Notes
Often amusing satire about the search for Bruce Lee’s replacement after his untimely death. Doesn’t always work but this is fun little flick with some good character moments. Love Sung Kang!
