1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money.
This DVD isn't what everybody has been waiting for. Forget about the 115 minute running time. It is the same old 100 minute version that we've all seen before. To add insult to injury it only has the English dubbed soundtrack. No option for Cantonese or Mandarin with English subtitles. Picture quality is fairly good 16:9 widescreen but otherwise it's a waste of space. I'm...

4.0 out of 5 stars The best it has looked, January 11, 2011

LoBo (Bodø, Norway) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Big Boss [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
Picture Quality: 4/5

For years i watched this on the first lousy edition of the HKL DVD,, so seeing it now in great HD quality is much better. People should be happy it does look this good. The colours and such look strong, except the fake blood, which i think looks like red paint. The close ups looks pretty good. I didn`t notice so much grain and that means it`s evident that they use DNR. Which i think is unnecessary. See DVD/Blu-ray comparison at dvdbeaver.com

Audio Quality: 3.5/5

I think the Cantonese: DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 was a bit disappointing. Yes, most of the music sounds good and alive, but the punch and kick effects should have had more bass. If they had more bass, the punches and kicks would have sounded more powerful. I don`t think they sound so powerfull now. It wouldn`t have hurt the people in charge of this 7.1 remix to have added more bass to the fight scenes.

The dialog at times sounded a bit thin, but i think it was mostly good. The Rear speakers are used a lot for music, but also for other effects like birds, water, dogs barking and so on. I believe my subwoofer was only used for some of the music which had suprisingly good bass.

Film: 4/5
Overall: 4/5
