Meh.

Poor acting, poor lighting, poor composition, oof shots, wonky shots, poorly framed shots, poor grading, terrible sound etc... the usual noob mistakes/limitations. I skipped through just in case I saw any improvements, but the same flaws just kept on coming.

While the story might've been interesting/entertaining for all I know, due to the terrible filmcraft I doubt anyone watching will make it past the first scene, let alone 'enjoy' it.

Still, you actually completed a project! This in itself is no small feat and you should be pleased no matter how it turned out. Many here could learn fom your efforts! To paraphrase Mr Lee himself, keep doing and one day you will start being. :)
 
Your short looks more like a tribute to NO RETREAT NO SURRENDER than just to Bruce Lee. I will add there is way too much dialogue for an action film--especially in the actual action scenes. It's a shame you did not have a real martial artist as the stunt coordinator. The stunts would look better.

But, congratulations on getting it done.
