Donnie Yen DVD

Ip Man Dual Subtitled

Donnie Yen, Simon Yam, Fan Siu-Wong
I am VERY DISAPPOINTED in my DVD "Ip Man", first edition print, purchased from Amazon. You truly need a quality rating on the various copies you are selling. The quality of video on this (even though it is supposedly first edition print) is VERY POOR.

I would have gladly spent double to buy a really good print..this one is really unacceptable.

thanks for listening,

Ip Man [2 Disc Special Edition] DVD

are you kidding?! get this movie! only on blu ray though. im not gonna get into that but if your iffy about the dvd read some reviews about it, does this movie no justice, pretty much just cheap quality all around. anyway back to blu ray, this movie is the shiznit-O-bang! yeah just like that. its a pricey blu ray but well worth it i say. the english subtitles on this is B+ at its best. lets face it when it comes to the chinese trying to translate to english they do a crap job only because its an import.

Hero

Jet Li, Tony Leung Chiu Wai, Maggie Cheung, Ziyi Zhang, Donnie Yen
In terms of movie reviews, I believe there are far superior reviews than ones I can conjure up for the film. This movie, along with The Fountain, are two of my favorite visual films of all time. The complexity of the film is layered three fold - 1. The physical 2. The emotional and 3. The philosophical.

The first layer is comprised of mixing martial arts, combining wire work against traditional weapons of war - the spear, the sword, the bow and arrow. For those who actually follow Chinese martial arts movies, there are some basic moves that are considered "flash moves" - moves that performed in dramatic fashion and style, which provides a viewer with distinct visual enhancement (and for you more vocal movie watchers, these are the moments where you go, "daaaaaaamnnn" or "that's gotta hurt") Zhang Yimou's direction was not to overdramatize these moves, he instead carefully incorporated them into the Choreography, enhancing but never overshadowing the plot itself, thus never fitting the genre of a traditional martial arts movie.

Seven Swords

Donnie Yen, Leon Lai, Charlie Yeung, Liwu Dai, Chia-Liang Liu
Seven swords is a really good movie, but feels like its a smaller portion of something bigger. Then when you go through the special features you find out there was a cut that was almost four hours. This helped me understand why there were so many gaps in the story, and backstory. But the cut provided was very entertaining, with some great fights, and some very unique bad guys, which is often a rarity in kung fu movies. The only real complaint I had, beyond the aforementioned wholes in the story, would be the dubbing.
