(26)Our Price: US$42.00Related promotions:June 15, 2007 one of the bestStill hard to beat as one of the best series of this genre. An oldie but a goodie, timeless. Needless to say the story is a classic. Rare to see such great chemistry between the 2 leading characters on screen. Most of the supporting roles are equally captivating, full of colourful personalities. This series is so good that even some of the clumsy acting, sets and "special effects" , roller skates and all can be forgiven. The only boring part is a few epsiodes towards the end after the 2 leads goes off "to do their own thing", but the ending makes up for it. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
Tai Chi Master (Ep.1-30) (End) (US Version)
June 15, 2007 just watchableMore romance than Tai Chi, neither is very exciting , the love story is contrived, a few good moments but overall there is no magic.The master is rather dum. God knows how did he ever become a master? Saving the last few episodes for a rainy day. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

(1)Our Price: US$38.99June 10, 2007 excellentA most interesting period in recent Chinese history, well acted and full of endearing characters , well paced with action , light comical and heart felt dramatic scenes. Its refreshing to have an opening theme song that is not sung to lots of snippets from the main feature. I hope Fatherland 2 and 3 are just as good. Did you find this review helpful?

Dragon Strikes (1) (Vol.1-20) (To Be Continued) (US Version)
June 9, 2007 highly enjoyablegreat viewing typical of the series of this period, lots of colourful characters, solid acting, plots and sub plots. Even without the aid of of modern digital computer work which are suppose to make us believe than people can really fly? ...get real...the fighting scenes are more believable , more exciting with clever choreographed sequences , timing and camera works.

Reincarnated II (Vol.1-30) (End) (US Version)
June 9, 2007 the first episode was enoughI must firstly say I am a fan of the ATV series fo the 80s...so I am definitely not keen on this sequal with its new style of "puppy yapping" school of acting...fast talking, silly expression,look at me I am so funny and loveable,...watched the first 15 minutes fast forward the next 3 or 4 episodes....half a star in case things improve... even if i was stranded on a dessert island with only this series I dont think I'll bother to finish it.

Dynasty (Part 1-C) (End) (US Version)
May 26, 2007 haven't seen this for > 20yrsBoth my grandma and I watched this series proabably more than 20 years ago and thought it was really fantastic, great story, acting suspense and action. We would love to watch it again but cant seem to get a copy (outside USA we are in Australia). Have checked all the other websites but this series seem to be all out of print. If anyone knows where i can get a copy love to hear from you. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
