2.0 out of 5 stars Rent it first! - before buying, September 3, 2008

By	70chevelless - See all my reviews

This is a review for the blu-ray version of this Black Mask movie. I was really looking forward to this movie coming out on blu-ray and was very disappointed in it when I finally got the chance to watch it. I loved this movie when it came out on dvd with its "campy" storyline and martial arts action. This blu-ray version is barely an improvement over the dvd. I watched this on a PS3 system and hdtv with an Onkyo TX-SR606 receiver and a decent set of surround sound speakers so I was able to take advantage of the 7.1 DTS HD Master Audio soundtrack available on the disc. The video was very "grainy" looking and barely looked "cleaned up" at all. I put in my standard dvd version of this movie and could hardly see any difference at all between the two. The sound wasn't much of an improvement either. The background music sounded pretty flat throughout the movie and the only improvements were in the explosions and some of the higher action sequences. Whoever did the blu-ray transfer of this film really "dropped the ball" on this one. As far as the movie itself, if you have never seen it, you are in for a treat and a fun ride with this one. For those of you who have seen the movie and were looking for a high-quality upgrade, I would recommend renting it first to see how you like it before shelling out the bucks to purchase a copy.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT FILM FROM JET, February 5, 2009

By	Paul Scott (CENTRAL COAST,, N.S.W. Australia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Great film,though the transfer reflects the period.
Its pretty accurate to how the film looked in the Chinese Cinema
where I worked a few years ago.
A lot of the Chinese Hong Kong films were badley proccessed ,especially the cheaper Production Companys.
The print is quite sharp and looks better on Bluray than the standard release

Its dubbed in English,very good job,though it would be nice to have the Hong Kong and Subs version,which is slightly longer and edited differantly.
I have the Hong Kong VCD.
Reccomended
