Hung (Yuen Wah) is a rich land owner on Lantau island and the master of the local kung fu school.  His son Lung (Chow) is probably one of his most disobedient pupils as he neglects his studies and spends the majority of his time playing snooker or fooling around with fellow classmate Mao (Mo).  Life is good until Yan (Leung Kar Yan), an old family friend, arrives in town preaching about the highs of living life in Hong Kong.  Lung is instantly fixated by the stories of the big city and decides to return with Yan to seek his fame and fortune.  On arrival, Yan's money problems become apparent as Lung is put up in his cramped apartment and forced to accompany Yan on a tour of the local betting establishments.  However, when Lung's uncanny talent for snooker is exposed, Yan decides that this could be an opportunity for the two of them to make it big.

Stephen Chow Sing Chi has never been one to hide his admiration for Bruce Lee and it is a common on-screen occurrence to see him imitating his expressions or movements.  'Legend Of The Dragon' is no exception to this and is probably the  closest Chow has actually come to making his own personal version of a Lee movie.  The plot in particular is very familiar and takes the "fish out of water" approach that Lee liked so much but, as is to be expected with Chow, everything is done in humourous form.  Even though there are flashes of Chow's fighting ability, the main joke is that all the combat takes place on the Snooker table and director Lee manages to give it the same stylistic overhaul that Poker received in 'God Of Gamblers'.  All of this makes for a very entertaining film that is packed with trademark Chow humour (with several noticeable parodies) and an all-star cast that keep this movie ahead of the chasing pack.
