 The Greed Of Man (DVD)(Uncut Edition) Customer Review Rated Bad 0 - 0 out of 10
More cuts from the uncut ver dvd, I was so disappointed that the scene was deleted,
where the youngest sister's of fong family trying to jump off the building to kill herself,
I was laughing hard when i compare my dvd wif my vcd. TVB should include those cut scene as
deleted feattures or release an unrated ver instead...hahaha

If you like The Wild Bunch(十三太保) (DVD), sorry to say that this's also a cut ver...

Brilliant Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
This drama is worth buying. I had got it for £25 on sale and so what a bargain.
This drama is one of the dramatic series ever and I must recommend for viewers
who haven't watched it before. All you hear is Adam Cheng roaring and shouting and
when he has nothing left, he makes his sons take their
own life and all because of greed.

 A work of art Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Enough people have reviewed this classic – you can even find a good write-up of the series on Wikipedia now – so I would not waste words on the story-line. However, the DVD set that just came out deserves a few words because TVB has finally come up with a product worthy of the series.

There are 10 DVDs with four episodes each. Each episode is by itself so viewers can select a specific episode from the menu. In doing so, TVB also corrected one of the worst sins of the VCDs – cutting out the opening theme song and ending credits from each episode. The DVDs restored both. The ending credits were integral to several episodes e.g. Faye Wong’s song continued into the ending credits in Episode 36 and the flashback montage during the credits of the last episode were gems much missed from the VCDs. And even more amazing – English subtitles! And the translation is quite adequate too (except for the inability to differentiate between pork and beef :)! Could it be TVB has finally decided that the Western market is worth attending too?

The video is crisp and sharp, the color superbly vibrant – it is such an improvement from the VCDs that watching the series gives a whole new level of enjoyment. Some minor blunders have been cleaned up e.g. the harnesses worn by the Ting brothers as they were falling down the Stock Exchange building could be clearly seen in the VCDs were hardly visible in the DVDs.

The audio has been cleaned up some too. In Episode 37, background noise almost drowned out Yuen Mui’s words when she confronted Ding Hou Hai in the VCD version. The noise is still there in the DVD but at least we can heard her clearly now.

Though the years, I’ve paid for every version of this series – the knocked off 40 VCDs from Malaysia, the VCDs from TVB … finally, I got value for my money. It only took 16 years :) If TVB maintains this quality, I can certainly be persuaded to buy more ….

Still Waiting For The DVD... Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Great Series, this help spawn Lau Ching Wan's movie carreer. Story was touching, the actors were brilliantly cast. A masterpiece. But with all the people praising it why haven't the DVD came out yet. This is my little theory to it...
When TVB finally decided to pushed these vcds out, the market was changing rapidly, with the computer boom, and rising sales of DVDs... "Plain and Simple," TVB over printed this series in a bad quality format! Someone probably in a meeting said, "I want the best retouched quality in this vcd"(haha!! best quality in a vcd) and so it took a bit longer to released it. when it finally gets released, the market had a taste of the DVD quality, and guess what, we liked and never turned back since. The picture quality is 10 times better than the vcd and sound... lets just say it almost matched the video(back then) so with all these printed vcds and slow sales, they are really banging their head to the wall, because they do not want to mark it down too much in fear that if too many people own it, no one will buy the dvd version, and those who bought it will feel ripped-off, so they wait, kept it at a certain price and hope someday they will make enough profit to cover the loss of throwing away the left over vcd copies and start selling the DVD version. tick tock, tick tock, i am still waiting...

 Song Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
It's a great movie, that's for certain.
But I'm looking for the song that Lau Ching Wan and Vivian Chow sang in the movie. I know the English title "Red River Valley", but can anyone tell me what the chinese title is of this song and where can I find it?
Thanks a lot :)

What an unforgettable drama series Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
First of all, I need to say all the actors and actress has done their best in their own characters, I can't find any one who is bad, especially Mr Lau Ching Wan and Ms Lam Kit Ying. I believe they are just superb and can't be replaced by anyone else.
For the script, all characters have their own backup in any scenes, even if they are doing some really bad stuff, they still have their own reason. Not just suddenly doing or unrelated to anything. Also the love sence between Ms Kwok Oi Ming, Ms Vivian Chow and Mr Lau Ching Wan is very touching and emotional. This can be a classic for the TV broadcast, I believe. Mr Ting Hai himself is a very stubborn person, however under the scriptwriters' view, he still can explain everything in a logical and workable reason/solution in different circumference. I think it is extremely difficult for the scriptwriters to do so.
Well, what I can say is, if you are living in Hong Kong, no matter how old you are, what your interest is, or how you treat Hong Kong TV drama series is, the Greed Man is really a must see! I highly recommend to everyone for this!

Not full length Customer Review Rated Bad 1 - 1 out of 10
This 23 vcd boxset of The Greed of Man is heavily cut. If you have watched the original on videotape, you will know that it is heavily cut. TVB has a tendency to prey on fans and fans' nostalgia and likes to use this to hike prices of the videos. This is shameful that they cut lots of essential scenes.

 The Greed of Man vcd Customer Review Rated Bad 5 - 5 out of 10
The Greed of Man has been known to be a favorite of TVB fans. But for this kind of price, TVB should record the Entire series. With so many cuts, sometimes it makes it confusing for the audience, unless they have already watch the original version in its entirety. Sometimes the cuts jump so sudden to another scene that does not relate to the previous scene is confusing. For this kind of price, really!

VERY VERY DISAPPOINTING EDITING Customer Review Rated Bad 1 - 1 out of 10
Find this series at the local video shop if possible. The VCD is very edited, and cuts one of the most emotional scenes by Damian Lau, one of the best actors in this series. The VCD retains most of the "stock-drama" plot and omits much of the "human-drama" plot. The videotapes have 39 episodes. The VCDs have only 26 episodes. If you do the math, you're only getting half the series.
However, I must say that this is a great star-studded series.
