With the good public reception of Robert Lee in his first movie The Shadow Of Bruce Lee produced by BEM, there is no reason not to follow the first one immediately. And now, under LSJ Productions, he can be seen in the movie Final Revenge, in which he, Robert Lee, has the title role.

That's just no. For this second film, producer-director Luis San Juan did not agree that he would not be the director. Although, it has been resting for a long time (temporarily), and the intention is to entrust the management to his son, Ronaldo San Juan, but he could not wait. He seems to have been enticed to stand behind the grinding camera again. And he was inspired to direct his newly discovered Robert Lee. He was impressed, if only compared to the previously built-up parching karate or also good at martial arts, Robert Lee is more agile and knows a lot of new styles. Which he showed now in his second starring role.

In this film, according to director-producer Luis San Juan, "his role is different here. He's not an agent that people like them usually play, but an ordinary gym owner and instructor. He has a lot to say."

Robert Lee's character in Final Revenge is kind, quiet and doesn't like trouble. Then, something unexpected happened. His only sister became a victim of drug syndicates. His brother became an addict until he died. He forgot that there was a law or powerful people that he had to prosecute. He himself hunted down the syndicates until he destroyed them one by one.

This is another action film by Robert Lee at his home studio.

Robert Lee stars with Sarah Gumabao, Jojo Fowler, Rex Lapid, Matimtiman Cruz, Larry Silva, Mandy Bustamante, Rudy Evangelista, Bong Benitez, and introducing Lorna Abrigo.
