    Ill admit it's better than the last two blu-ray releases. I wished Mike Leeder could'ev done the audio commentary since not only he visited the set during 1994 but he had alot of information on the film too. Frank's commentary was fun to listen though. Could they'ev put more special features? yes, not the biggest fan of Brent Ratner but the rest of the features i didn't mind but i wished 88 contacted you to talk about Fist of Legend.

    I always think it depends what player and TV your watching it through. The 4K does have the upper hand of course, but the same restoration is on the Blu-ray and looks amazing. Honestly, to the untrained eye there's not a huge difference at all...

    Thanks for this ! One important question, what's the Mandarin 5.1 audio like ? I don't actually own the Blu-ray but I have rented it/watched it and as I recall, even though I would normally always want to watch movies in their original language, the quality of the Mandarin audio on the Blu-ray I watched was pretty terrible...switching to the dubbed version (even though I hate the dubbing) and the audio was vastly better, not just in quality but it was different ! with differnet music/sound effects as I recall and it made such a huge difference that I could only watch the dubbed version. I really hope the Mandarin 5.1 soundtrack on this is as good (or better) quality than the English/dubbed audio on the Blu-ray I saw. Another (curious) aspect I'm interested in is the subtitles...the English dub was very different to the subtitles on the Blu-ray I watched, completely changed the meaning at times. These points aside, I really love that artwork/slip, I Love the fact that you get both the 4K and Blu-ray are included (as they should always be imo !) and you have different artwork on each disk. This is a great movie, my 2nd favourite Jet Li movie (after "Fearless") and a top5 martial arts movie for me...although I'm sure I've only seen a tiny fraction of the martial arts movies you have ! 😉

    I've just looked some of this stuff up and I can see that the Blu-ray release I previously watched had a Mandarin DD 2.0 dual-mono track, a Cantonese DD 2.0 dual-mono track and an English DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1. Whilst I didn't care for the dubbing of the English track, the quality and enjoyment from the audio of that 5.1 track was vastly superior to either of the Mandarin or Cantonese dual-mono tracks (at least to my ears on my 5.1 system). This new release from 88 films appears to only have Cantonese mono-audio ? That's a big shame because I was really hoping to have that quality 5.1 audio track but with the original language instead of the dub.😞

    @@invincibleasiaofficial Yep, the Taiwanese extended version is the best version and sadly all others like Hong Kong, USA, UK, Germany, France & Spain use the theatrical cut version with accelerated fights (±1.3 time if I remember correctly), making them looking exaggerated, almost funny and cartoonish, which is a real shame. I didn't know how to rip movies at the time I saw the Taiwanese extended version or else I would had done it. Instead I ended up importing the HK version in DVD and after buying the Dragon Dynasty BD, which aren't as good as the Taiwanese extended version. I was really deceive. Knowing this 4K is the cut version, is another disappointment.

Especially fok yuen gap (also played by jetli aka stupid english title fearless) china was on the verge of colonisation by the i nation alliance: US/uk/gm/fr/jp/ru/hu/it, fok yuen gap (a real martial artist) lived in a time brits fed opium to the chinesez their addiction saw them sell their kids on the street

    @GawrGurasBathTubPizza Bruce Lee wouldn't give two s--ts if he were alive. He didn't care for this movie that much to even debate Jet Li over it. He'd wished Fist of Fury's writing would'ev been good as Fist of Legend and having a better director than Lo Wei who only care about horse racing than to care about quality. Both Fist of movies are good but Fist of Legend is better iterms of writing, and the fact Chen Zhen is not a damn psychopath who kills everyone on sight. Something Bruce wasn't a fan of.
