Consumer DVD Review
[Top]
Sammo Hungs personal favourtie film comes to d.v.d. The film has an excellent storyline, & some of the best war fight scenes ever to be filmed, togehter with great acting This is a fantastic restored print from Hong Kong Legends. The quality of the picture is excellent, consdiering the poor storage techniques of film negatives in hong kong. The sound has been inproved, & there are some brilliant animated menus included. There are some fantastic extras included, the most intersting is the 2 10 minute interviews with sammo hung which were filmed especially for this d.v.d, in 2001, so they will not be found on any other d.v.ds They reveal interesting facts about how the film was made, & sammo talks about the many injuries that he suffered whilt making the film overall, this is a fantastic release from the company, Hong Kong Legends The only drawback was the fact that the animated biography was not included on the disc in full, depite the fact that the disc is clearly not double layerd, which means that you will have to buy further sammo d.v.ds to complete the biography. still, theres no problem with doing that!!!
