I don't usually give out ones, but this is definitely one of 'those' films that warrants a low rating.
Released years after Lee's death, GoD is a poor attempt at stringing together unused footage of Bruce from a prior project and splicing it into a new film with obvious stunt doubles. The film goes hefty lengths to obscure protagonist Billy Lo's face as much as possible, including an embarrassing reflection shot where they just taped an image of Lee's face onto a mirror - terrible.
The film is also pretty tasteless, basing the entire plot on Lee's character being assassinated, and then showing real footage of the actor's FUNERAL. On top of all this, supporting actor Gig Young would go on to kill his wife and then himself before the film released. Just an overall dumpster fire.
Only salvageable part of this tacky flick is probably the one fight with Kareem Abdul Jabbar (intended for a different movie), otherwise don't bother with this.
