- 100San Francisco ChronicleBob GrahamSan Francisco ChronicleBob GrahamEnter the Dragon goes far beyond the philosophical, of course. Its best sequences, and the only real reason for seeing it again, involve Lee's phenomenal physical and emotional presence.
- 91The A.V. ClubThe A.V. ClubEven though the movie was, in a lot of ways, a glorious mess, it turned out to be a huge success on just about every level.
- 90IGNIGNIf you want plot and thespian displays, well, look elsewhere. For action, you can't top this film.
- 80EmpireIan NathanEmpireIan NathanIt's not a great film, but Lee's superhuman skills make it an occasionally jaw-dropping experience.
- 75Slant MagazineChris CabinSlant MagazineChris CabinThe lack of sentimentality helps focus the viewer on what the film depicts exceptionally well, namely wanton bad behavior and enthralling, wall-to-wall ass-kicking.
- 60TV Guide MagazineTV Guide MagazineNobody shows much evidence of acting ability, and the script is full of holes. Nonstop action is what these films are about, and that's what you get here.
- 50Time OutTime OutWorth seeing for Lee, but still unforgivably wasteful of his talents.
