Julius J. Carry III

The Last Dragon -- Motown's Barry Gordy brings you Bruce Leroy, an inner city kid who eats popcorn with chopsticks, is very close to being the kung fu master, and just wants to kick it with Vanity.

The Last Dragon -- Martial arts student, Leroy Green (Taimak), is on a quest to obtain the elusive all-powerful force known as 'The Glow.' Along the way, he must battle the evil, self-proclaimed Shogun of Harlem - a kung-fu warrior also known as Sho'nuff (Julius J. Carry III) - and rescue a beautiful singer (Prince protegee, Vanity) from an obsessed record promoter.

An enjoyable pastiche of martial arts, romance, music, and video, "The Last Dragon" presents a likable young hero, Leroy (Taimak), who aspires to become a kung fu master. Though black and living in Harlem with his family, Leroy lives like a Chinese. Trouble arises in the form of a huge black man who calls himself "Sho' Nuff," who is determined to prove himself the kung fu master of the neighborhood.

An African American martial arts whiz, so devoted to his hobby that he dresses and behaves in what he thinks is the Chinese fashion, falls in love with a veejay. But gangsters intrude on both their lives.
