In ancient Egyptian mythology, a dead person's soul would be weighed against the feather of truth in a ritual called a psychostasy. If their soul was lighter than the feather, it would ascend into the afterlife. Heavy souls were devoured by Maat, eater of the dead. Good films go to hard drive heaven while the recycle bin eats the rest.

Enter the Dragon (1973)
A kung fu directed by Robert Clouse, starring Bruce Lee.
A martial artist from the Shaolin school is asked to go on a special mission to the island of a corrupt man who has disgraced the school and the family of the fighter. A tournament is held on the island and various other contenders arrive as well.
This is THE classic kung fu film. When kung fu movies are mentioned, everyone things Enter the Dragon. The fights were pretty good, considering the date. The plot and characters were decent. The style and production value were a little rough because of the date that this was made. I'm rating it adequate because there are better kung fu films that I like lots more.
