Mystery (2nd Version) (CD+DVD)
December 24, 2006 GreatWow, what nice coverwork...no its what's inside that counts. Evonne's work has always been great and this
one is no exception. Track 2 is great...I find herr voice to be a much smoother, softer and sweeter Mariah Carey :)
So when can we get a live DVD from Evonne, "Universal" people?Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

(5)Our Price: US$42.99Usually ships within 1 to 2 daysRelated promotions:November 11, 2006 Must SeePicture quality is excellent on this and so are the subtitles. It is fast paced and you often feels like watching a movie rather than a long draggy series. They've definitely put up with a fairly high budget to make this series. Also, don't stop watching it just because of the end credits on the last disc. It actually reveals a few "surprises". Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

Tian Xia Di Yi (Vol.1-35) (End) (China Version) DVD Region All
(12)Our Price: US$49.99Related promotions:October 18, 2005 not bad but ...The action, storyline and acting is pretty good which many other viewers also agreed but read on...
Given that this movie was produced with $20million I'd expect it to be a high quality production.
Well it is almost IT but I must critise ...
Then again you can't expect top quality when buying "Chinese Version" can you?
Problems that I find irrating:
1. lip sync problems. Watch carefully and you'll see that it is apparent.
2. Voice dubbing. Why bother dubbing the HK actors when there are subtitles?
Watching those dubbed voices makes me laugh..
James Earl Jones does a much better job of dubbing the voice for the Scottish actor in Star Wars. Now that's what I called a quality voice dub.
3. Picture quality is good but not great.
Picture quality wise, technically speaking it is a SVCD production with heavy compression. On normal/slower scenes it looks good but watch the fighting scenes and it will remind you of what VCD/SVCDs looks like. I'm using a CRT and this was very apparent
