Rating: Summary: No WideScreen? Wake up MGM! Review: Why this DVD was released full frame only is a mystery to me. All previous MGM releases are both FF and WS. Please DO NOT BUY this DVD until MGM wakes up & realizes that CHOICE is what DVD is all about.
Rating: Summary: I love that film. Review: Yes, I am aware of it's imperfections, but still I love that film. It's miles above the majority of kiddie productions.My son has a collection of action figures from movies and video games and the Roos are the best. Their design is so strikingly unexpected! The action sequences are shot very artfully - all these leaves floating in the streams of Power, the resolved fighting of these who HAVE to fight, the total absence of JackyChanesque "funny" grimaces. My son and nephew were obsessed by the movie for days, confronting each other with these - You came uninvited! - - Come on and pla-ay!!!- phrases, having their try at the art of flying kicks. The film is kind, the baddies are redempted at the end but all that with the minimal level of saccharine preaching. I want to thank the Law brothers and Ronny Yu, stuntmen and designers, who made the miracle happen. I've bought the VHS and later the DVD, recommended the film to all my friends who have sons - I want to let the people behind that film know that their effort is very much appreciated.
