I’m not sure about that. The martial arts and the message at the heart of the movie are solid, but it played a little bit too “camp,” overall. Most of the critics passed on the movie.
Another thing i realized i love about this movie and that they did right..was when sho nuff gains the glow leeroy has been searching for, he doesnt say anything no dialogue. Its all in his face and reaction. Very powerful moment. U can see it in his face what hes thinking. Thank director and writer and taimak for not having dialogue in that moment.
I would call this movie one of my guilty pleasures, except I don't feel guilty at all about loving it. 80's cheese meets martial arts. Absolute classic. Taimak's Bruce Leroy was a cool hero, Chris Murney's Eddie Arkadian was a classic half-crazed antagonist, but Julius Carry's Sho'Nuff set the bar high for awesome leading villains. He made this movie.
Julius Carry (Sho-nuff) is on of my favorite actors. The guy can do anything. He did almost every stunt himself in these scenes. The only one he didn’t do was the final splashdown in the steel tank. Don’t blame him for leaving that one to the pros, a miscalculation and you’re paralyzed.
Hands down one of the best Kung fu flicks of all time you had the music the comedy the fight scenes shit was amazing I watched this several times a week on vhs
Although this was considered a "B" movie, you can tell it was made with love and respect to genre it was influenced by. The Fight choreography was legit, with a soundtrack that fought along side the protagonist.
This movie was done so good that you don’t know what category to even put it in! Had everything even special effects that don’t take away from the reality!
You know what makes this scene great? That's actually them doing the fighting and there isn't a thousand edits/cuts in between the action. And of course the glow!!!
All this time, I thought it was just Shonuff’s hands that glowed, but I looks like his converse were charged too!! Freaking Amazing!! Love this movie!!
Did anyone catch the kung fu philosophy hidden in this final showdown? There is a saying in martial arts, most noteably modern Kenpo ( was in the Perfect Weapon ) . The tiger does not think, therefore it cannot act. It can only, react, respond. Like the tiger the dragon is also very strong but full of wisdom. The dragon fears what it's strength can do. Leeroy is the Last DRAGON, while Shonuff is wearing an outfit with a tiger representing this. So in the end Leeroy was always superior.
@@calvinprime Channeled his inner power (light/chakra) found his strength/ power👌🏽✨✨✨😊 he had “it” all along just had to believe… light positive energy versus negative sinister energy, faced and beat his fears & demon(s) 📿💫
My son just did something naughty and as he ran away I called him sho Nuff as his hair was in the same style he laughed saying what's that!! I just showed him this clip and both my boys can't stop laughing. I think It's time to watch the movie 😄
Ernie Nombrano ..personally i wouldnt want a sequel. Orginal actor is like 50. Plus its time to reintroduce this classic to new generation with a remake. Taimak would need to make a cameo in any remake of course..my thought would that taimak, ernie jr and guy who played johnny, play the three cookie factory guys in remake. Fun scene to see all three orginal actors in since it was a fun scene in original. Just my opinion.
So many amazing parts. Anyone watching this already know them all. Saw this on the big when I was five.... Nuff said lol. Shout out to Julius. He made this movie.
Only in the 80s could you have a movie as gloriously cheesy as this but still have an important underlying message about finding the strength within you. Smashing film, one I can't get enough of.
And it's sad that Shogun of Harlem the little brother and vanity all three of them are dead three of them died so young but this movie is still a classic.
Man, this fuckin soundtrack!! If their was an emoji for tears of joy and nostalgia, I'd put a million on the up. I loved this as a kid in the 90's. Best era EVER
The second greatest Kung Fu movie after Enter the Dragon 🐉. Best theme music in the final fight scene where Leroy lays the beat down on Sho Nuff and the evil Eddie Arkadian.
Gotta give the brotha his credit Shonuff was definitely a master he had achieved the glow🤔. As a kid I was just hyped the hero won but looking back now Mr. Nuff as the dude called him😂🤣 wasnt just all talk😮
Just watched this movie and the scene were Sho'nuff hands glow I was like HOLY SHIT. Here I thought he was some pompous jackass but that made him into a real threat.
Epsilonsama I loved that scene. The whole movie, Leeroy is looking for the master, and the whole movie Sho’nuff is saying he’s the master, and for a few minutes there Leeroy was crapping himself because he was like “Holy shit, he IS the master I’ve been looking for?!?”
This is one of my favorite movies of all time. This fight scene was always hype as hell. Shame,part 2 got axed because Tai Mak want to take on more serious roles...which led to the end of his career. Anyway,This is still and will always will be a classic. I've watched it over and over as a kid and I still watch it today. Sho nuff!!!!
SHO NUFF STANDS ALONE!!! There’s no one that could play this character ever again. When he says “...U say Shoo Nufff!!!! That look of emphasis!
I know right 🤣😆
The most iconic character in history
If they remade this Kegan Micheal Key of Key and Peel fame could pull it off.
@@s6underground you know he probably could. It would be hard to imitate the bad assness of the original, but he’d make it entertaining.
i heard they were guna make a Re-make of this movie, and Samuel L Jackson guna play this character SHO NUFF.
“Playtime’s over boy! Yeaaaaaah” This is why movies are made. That whole sequence is greatness!
Stings a little don’t it?
"There is one place that You have not looked" "An it is there" "Only there" "That you shall find The Master"
Wisdom for a Life time..
Have you checked Deathrow ?
Or the John's at the morgue ?
Or maybe even a K.I.A. in military,
because surly,
you are not the master, correct?
One of the best movies in American film history.. Completely slept on because it was a black cast.
I’m not sure about that. The martial arts and the message at the heart of the movie are solid, but it played a little bit too “camp,” overall. Most of the critics passed on the movie.
#facts
As an average white kid growing up in semi-rural Ohio in the 1980's, this movie literally influenced who I am today. I just love it.
How?
The best fuck you haters you people didn't grow up in the 80s
Average white kid....wtf does that even mean
@Deathmetal Marine hahaha no I'm not avended by white nationalism but naming off activities means white....hmmmm
@Deathmetal Marine yea all the things you just named off make a basic white nationalist kid. Right
Another thing i realized i love about this movie and that they did right..was when sho nuff gains the glow leeroy has been searching for, he doesnt say anything no dialogue. Its all in his face and reaction. Very powerful moment. U can see it in his face what hes thinking. Thank director and writer and taimak for not having dialogue in that moment.
As a kid this scene hyped me up more than Mighty Morphin Time, more than Turtle Power!
"I am the master!"
I still cringe a bit that I used to like watching the original run of MMPR as a kid in my pre-teens
This blockbuster had it all...classis..music..girls..humor..action..dancing
I would call this movie one of my guilty pleasures, except I don't feel guilty at all about loving it. 80's cheese meets martial arts. Absolute classic. Taimak's Bruce Leroy was a cool hero, Chris Murney's Eddie Arkadian was a classic half-crazed antagonist, but Julius Carry's Sho'Nuff set the bar high for awesome leading villains. He made this movie.
At the end when Leroy catches his punch he says ahhh ohhh goddamn, lemme go mothafucka lemme go
He also says what the fuck when Leroy first starts crushing his hand

Yo 30 years after seeing this as a lil kid Vanity still fine as fuck
Badass roundhouse kicks + Neon special fx + awesome 80s soundtrack + larger than life characters. I miss this era.
Sho Nuff had that uncle Ruckus eye @3:50 😂😂😂
Musa Lion lmao
for being recorded off a tv, this still has to be sharpest clearest richest tv screen I've ever seen.
Ikr what type of tv plasma?
Hands down one of the best Kung fu flicks of all time you had the music the comedy the fight scenes shit was amazing I watched this several times a week on vhs
PNCH FLIP N PITCH !! True Indeed, True Indeed!
this is where the idea of Super Saiyans came from
Although this was considered a "B" movie, you can tell it was made with love and respect to genre it was influenced by. The Fight choreography was legit, with a soundtrack that fought along side the protagonist.
The movies that influenced this are "B" movies themselves. They still kick ass, though.
2:53
The greatest scene in anybody's lifetime!
nope; 5:36
This movie was done so good that you don’t know what category to even put it in! Had everything even special effects that don’t take away from the reality!
My Most Favorite Movie Of All Time👍
When that music changed you knew shit was about to get real! Leroy wasn’t ready lol
You know what makes this scene great? That's actually them doing the fighting and there isn't a thousand edits/cuts in between the action. And of course the glow!!!
All this time, I thought it was just Shonuff’s hands that glowed, but I looks like his converse were charged too!! Freaking Amazing!! Love this movie!!

Good stuff bro. Only thing is the tiger/dragon are represented s opposites yet equal. Yin and yang.
Vam The Anomaly ...i liked that scene in perfect weapon when teacher says that line about tiger n dragon. I see that represented here.
Wow I love these movies and I rewatched The Perfect Weapon some months ago. I'm like how you pointed that out in this scene!
This is one of my all time favorite movies.
One of my favorite movies of all time Bruce Leroy got the glow
u mean he turns super saiyan
Think I got the glow a few times by myself thinking about her.
@@calvinprime Channeled his inner power (light/chakra) found his strength/ power👌🏽✨✨✨😊 he had “it” all along just had to believe… light positive energy versus negative sinister energy, faced and beat his fears & demon(s) 📿💫
Lots of good movies during this time, ever see Remo Williams?
My son just did something naughty and as he ran away I called him sho Nuff as his hair was in the same style he laughed saying what's that!! I just showed him this clip and both my boys can't stop laughing. I think It's time to watch the movie 😄
this movie is gold
“I’m gonna ask you one more time, who’s the master”? Proceeds to ask him 20 more times 😂
Ok Hollywood, Do not make a remaster of this awesome movie. DON"T KILL THE CLASSIC!!!!
Antiwan T they already issued a remaster about 8 months ago. A remaster, not a remake.
Think he meant remake or reboot.
hopefully they make like a sequel with the same actor because supposedly he was willing to come back for a sequel during an interview with tmz
Ernie Nombrano ..personally i wouldnt want a sequel. Orginal actor is like 50. Plus its time to reintroduce this classic to new generation with a remake. Taimak would need to make a cameo in any remake of course..my thought would that taimak, ernie jr and guy who played johnny, play the three cookie factory guys in remake. Fun scene to see all three orginal actors in since it was a fun scene in original. Just my opinion.
Antiwan Tiana. Sister. Mom. Dad😭😍😋😜🤑🤡
classic movie. vanity was what dreams were made of in this movie.
RIP to sho nuff vanity and Leroy little brother
Jonathan barnett you forgot the master
SPIKE 101 sho nuff I said already
Jonathan barnett he meant leeroys master.
INDEED
Are you Shitting me? The Shogun Sho Nuff is dead? and Leeroy's little Bro WTF? Vanity i knew about...Still sad though
The moment when Bruce Leroy catches Sho'nuffs punch after he gets the golden glow, thunder
Before there was Deebo There was this bad boy R.I.P Sho-nuff
This is My fav part scene of the last dragon i just love it when i was little girl
I can never watch this movie 🎥 too much. ❤🥰😘💜😁
This movie was my childhood and inspired me to be a martial artist. I thank God for this awesome movie.
So many amazing parts. Anyone watching this already know them all. Saw this on the big when I was five.... Nuff said lol. Shout out to Julius. He made this movie.
qualityguy ...its amazing julius had no martial arts background and taimak had no acting background this was his first acting gig.
When Shonuff shows up with the red glow damn that shit gets me hyped cuz shit just got real
Sho-nuff: (Glowing red hands) Play times over, boy…
Leroy: …Uh-oh. 😐
This movie rules
I found this gem in the discount bin at my local grocery store. Grabbed it up right away. I’ve been looking every for it
I watched this when it first came out. Now I'm an adult I realize how gorgeous Leroy was! Still a great movie even now. Timeless.
Sho 'Nuff is my favorite villain.
I saw this when it was released back in the 80s. The 80s had great movies.
Only in the 80s could you have a movie as gloriously cheesy as this but still have an important underlying message about finding the strength within you. Smashing film, one I can't get enough of.
You gotta love sho nuff like Darth maul. He had the red glow, like some darkside shit. I love how sho nuff tries to recharge his glow haha
Angel Storm I always liked that recharge part as well
That glow is actually from the star wars light Saber. That's where they got the idea.
All time fav fight scene...music just kills in the scene..i just bought a sho nuff shirt 2017.
greato80 The music was everything. Thanks Mr Gordy lol
qualityguy ...i still listen to soundtrack on my phone to this day! 2017..two of the main songs anyway.
greato80 I'm down lol. My wife bought me the soundtrack years ago. The beginning of the theme song still more than holds up.
qualityguy ..no doubt!
And it's sad that Shogun of Harlem the little brother and vanity all three of them are dead three of them died so young but this movie is still a classic.
Lawrence Joseph damn but taimak is still alive
0451 Shodan - Movie is one of the best martial arts films ever. Better than the bullshit nowadays!
Man, this fuckin soundtrack!! If their was an emoji for tears of joy and nostalgia, I'd put a million on the up. I loved this as a kid in the 90's. Best era EVER
One of the best fight scenes ever. Love this movie.
Remember watching this as a kid great movie
This is where the undertaker got his bell sound for his theme from, it was this movie😆
Damn it I love this movie! We need a remake series like Cobra Kai!
sho'nuff: power level over 9000!!!!!!!
Michael E. Bowen I would have been like okay you win
Michael E. Bowen they need to put him on mortal kombat
Just wondering if sno nuff must be inspiration for mr satan
Michael E. Bowen and Leroy's power level is over 10.9000 LOL 😄
Just realised how great the looks julius gives when he gets back into fighting mode even though he sees his power fading..awesome acting.
80's classic...brings back childhood memories....
Look and listen to how intense it gets when Sho'nuff walks up to Leroy...You feel the fight....T
I don't care what anyone says, that was a cool scene!
Thumbs up!
Sho Nuff's glow graphics were so much cooler than Leroy's.
The second greatest Kung Fu movie after Enter the Dragon 🐉. Best theme music in the final fight scene where Leroy lays the beat down on Sho Nuff and the evil Eddie Arkadian.
The HD upload is awesome and clear, thanks for uploading this
starla22g thats so bad not bring it back on tv screen 😞
I LOVED this movie as a kid. Still do.
0:58 bitchslapped him to death n then hit him wit that Gucci Mane "Yeeeeaaah". Savage
KHAOE1 lol
😂😂😂
People don't realize how dope yhe 80s was. This was the shit. When sho nuff got the glow that messed my whole 12 year old head up.
Who’s watching in 2018 ?
Sho Nuff is one of my favorite villains. That's one bad motherfucker.
Ricardo Rodarte 😂😂😂
He did have some of the most badass villain lines, and they never sounded corny coming from him like with most villains.
To me he wasn't really a villain, he just wanted to prove he was the best...he would not even take the money to fight LeRoy...
Rest in peace Julius Carry. Amazing and impressive work
Met him at Comic Con in 2016. Real nice guy in person.
The second, I..am! ...still gives me chills. 2018. Whole scene still hypes me up too.
"Mmm..niggaa pleeeeze"....😂😂😂😂
What a beautiful remastered version. Quality flawless. Looks like they re did it. The copy really pops and bring it more to life.
One of the best fight scene ever, in one of the best movie ever.
My uncle frank God rest his soul had hair like this!😂 we was a pretty crazy outspoken fellow. Favorite word was jeppers! Miss him to!
Sho’Nuff had no curl juice left after those spin-kicks!!! 6:20
Hell yea he lost all his soul glo
Saint Nicholas lmaooo
St. Maurice nigga jerri curl was dry as a MF😂😂😂
I’m talking bout 3 of them hoes in a row! 😂😂😂 he was dead on his feet!
St. Maurice 😂😂
Grew up watching this movie!!!! Hope they never try to remake it!!!
G Money I hope not either
That would mess it all the way up.. We need our black kungfu hip hop movie to stay classic
G Money yea real shit. 1985 was a good year for movies. This and Goonies is my shit!!
I love this scene so much!! ( goosebumps)
dude yout TV is off the chain, this shit wasn't this clear at the theater when it dropped in the 80's
Greatest fight ever.
Gotta give the brotha his credit Shonuff was definitely a master he had achieved the glow🤔. As a kid I was just hyped the hero won but looking back now Mr. Nuff as the dude called him😂🤣 wasnt just all talk😮
If they did a remake Busta Rhymes would have made a hell of a Sho-Nuff
IRON5 I was just thinking that lol
Peter Dinklage as Eddie Arkadian
Or Pancho Moler
IRON5 Who would play Laura Charles?
IRON5 Like 15 years ago
there are 8 jive coolies that kiss the converse that watched this
This is the greatest movie 🍿 ever ! :) You can’t do that to my brother
play time over boy.... Leroy looks at his hands like wtf
Dexter Tisdale , when shonuff hands start to short circuit i lose it everytime
+jsdzx hahaha for real
I like that he still try to attack first. Didn't work, but he tried
sho nuff had the wrong glow...the one triggered by anger and not tranquility
Jiron127 shonuff was a sith Lord from the hood.
Best fight scene ever miss my childhood
5:57 When you unlock Ultra Instinct for the 1st time...
You sure look like a master to me... vanity was all wet already... LMAO

John Jones damn right LMAO
PHILL SHIVELY lol
Indeed, may she rest in peace.
KillerFrank yea

80’s movies were the best
Just watched this movie and the scene were Sho'nuff hands glow I was like HOLY SHIT. Here I thought he was some pompous jackass but that made him into a real threat.

Anyway,This is still and will always will be a classic. I've watched it over and over as a kid and I still watch it today. Sho nuff!!!!
There was an interview where said he was black listed because he wouldn't have sex with some of the male producers.
@@Lord_Mideon I do believe that to be a fact,Sir. Freaky Hollywood SMH, Like a real live Thriller video. Any and everybody just trying you.
Use to LOVE this movie❤️
One of the best movies of the time and still is. And the theme song
Before there was Busta Rhymes there was Sho'Nuff!
Brandon Bryant right
Sure enough
Probably one of the most awesome clips in entertainment history
this is what a Iron Fist movie should look like !
