Brandon Lee has developed something of a cult following over the decades, as fans keep wondering, "What could have been?" As the son of the most famous martial artist of all time, there are impossible expectations to live up to. Alas, Brandon Lee had no intention of being the next Bruce Lee, understanding that, to get his foot in the door, he would have to take on action roles.
Laser Mission is often ignored among Brandon Lee fans and with good reason. A train wreck from start to finish, Laser Mission is nothing of note. Despite having the charismatic and extremely talented Brandon Lee as the lead, the film fails on all fronts. The action is uninteresting, the dialogue is bad, and the story is strange and makes no sense at all. Laser Mission is only fun to laugh at, not even excelling as a so-bad-it's-good classic.
4 'Showdown In Little Tokyo' Directed by Mark L. Lester A buddy cop movie with all the cheese and charm of a delightful '80s B-movie, Showdown In Little Tokyo is so bad it's good. Starring Dolph Lundgren and Brandon Lee as two cops with conflicting personalities who become partners and attempt to stop a drug lord .
Unfairly written off as a mere cash grab on the Lee family name, Rapid Fire was not nearly as well received by critics in 1992 as it should've been.
