YesAsia Editorial Description
One of Jin Yong's most beloved martial arts stories comes to screen again in the highly anticipated new drama The Eagle Shooting Heroes. Having played star-crossed lovers in The Little Fairy, Mainland heartthrob Hu Ge and top Taiwan actress Ariel Lin (It Started with a Kiss) strike pitch-perfect chemistry as the newest generation of stars to take on the classic roles of Guo Jing and Huang Rong. Julian Cheung and Athena Chu, Li Yapeng and Zhou Xun, and most memorably Felix Wong and Barbara Yung are just a few of the big names to have previously headlined this timeless tale about the adventures and romance of a noble, naive swordsman and a petite, clever heroine. The Eagle Shooting Heroes is produced by Lee Kwok Lap, director of the popular trendy period drama Chinese Paladin which first launched leading man Hu Ge to fame.
Forced to flee the Central Kingdom after troops wiped out their village, Guo Jing and his mother settle in the Mongolian grasslands with a tribe led by Genghis Khan. Their quiet life on the steppes is interrupted one day by seven strange masters from the south who have come to take Guo Jing as their pupil. Eighteen years later, Guo Jing (Hu Ge) is now skilled in martial arts, but still every bit as naive and kindhearted as he was as a child. On his masters' orders, Guo Jing leaves the grasslands for the first time and encounters the cute and crafty Huang Rong (Ariel Lin). Together they embark on an epic adventure of myriad dangers and fateful encounters.
The Eagle Shooting Heroes brings together a star-studded ensemble cast from China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong including Yuan Hong (The Young Warriors) as Guo Jing's cunning sworn brother Yang Kang, Leung Ka Yan as North Beggar Hong Qigong, Elvis Tsui as the power-hungry Ouyang Feng, and Kathy Chau as Yang Kang's mother Bao Xiruo. The most exciting addition though is probably the casting of acclaimed Hong Kong actor Anthony Wong as eccentric martial arts master Huang Yaoshi.

This is about the DVD set itself, not the series
|
For all those who were looking forward to experiencing the Legend of the Condor Heroes 2008 in pristine, DVD-quality audio and video, I'm sorry to say but this DVD set is very much lacking in that part. The video quality of the drama is VCD-like, watchable but there are inevitably better video files of this drama available online for free. The main reason why I purchased this set was to obtain the Cantonese dub of the series, for which I am most pleased with, but the English subtitles are, as always, extremely hilarious. When I first got this set I thought that at the very least it should be on par with the Return of the Condor Heroes that was released in 2006. Oh, how wrong I was. At least for that set, a 50 episode series was put onto 9 discs. For this series, for some reason or another, they squeezed it onto 7 discs which has had major effects on the quality of the video that is left behind. If I could re-do this one decision in my life, I'd wait until Netflix had it available to rent and get it from them. Taiseng really did this series an injustice by sacrificing quality for the sake of saving a few pennies on discs. |

New perspective on old characters
| I will always compare this series with the original 80s TVB version with Felix Wong and Barbara Yung. What I did find very interesting about this new update was how certain characters were given more attention. Particularly Ouyang Ke (歐陽克) as you can see that he wasn't an evil person. If you watch it all the way to the end, without major spoilers, if you already know the main story and were expecting something to happen...it doesn't. If you like seeing Ariel Lin and Hu Ge together, then I also recommend also watching The Little Fairy aka: Fairy From The Wonderland (天外飛仙) as they are also the two leading characters. The martial arts and fighting are good though i liked the recent Return of Condor Heroes more. Also there is more "babe" factor with the actresses in other recent releases of this genre. Overall though, I still recommend this to add to your watch list if you are a Jin Yong and Wuxia fan. |

English Subtitle
|
I have a TS released version of the DVD. The English subs were horribly bad and silly. Lots of mis-translated meanings, and even spelling mistakes! "Chi" was written as "Gas" -- a direct translation of the Chinese word -- which made it sound really ridiculous and hilarious on some occasions. And that certainly was not all. Unless you do a little bit of interpretation, around the subs, it'll be hard to enjoy the movie reading those badly done subs. Hopefully the version selling here aint as bad as the one I've got. Someone please clarify. |

great show.. take it for what it is
| This was a great show and there are english subtitles contrary to popular belief. I have seen all of the other versions of the Eagle shooting hero story and i believe that this show is just as good if not better than some of the other versions. In order to truly enjoy this show, dont automatically hate it and dont compare it to the other versions. The director decided to make use of his artistic license and change a few things about the story but it wasnt anything that you cant deal with. I also have to say that this is probably the best huang rong i have ever seen. Ariel's portrayal of Huang Rong is also the closes to the book version of huang rong out of the versions i have seen. Hands down a must see show if you're an ariel lin fan but its also a good show to watch in general. So dont automatically compare, dont hate it without giving it a chance and just take it for what it is, a tv show. |
