Summary: A definite must buy for any Bruce Lee fan.
Review: This is the most complete Bruce Lee DVD set you can ever own. This collection plus Enter the Dragon will make your Bruce Lee DVD collection complete. You will have all of his films. Collection contains remastered movies, cleaned up and sharp looking. Other DVD releases by lesser companies offer horrible image quality but not FOX. Enter the Dragon is owned by Warner Brothers, otherwise it would have been included in this DVD kit. On the down side, the DVD collection offers just the movies and nothing else. There's no bonus materials on any of the DVDs. I guess you can consider the documentary DVD a bonus. There's five DVDs in total and in my opinion worth every penny. Summary: IMAGE QUALITY (A+) Bruce Lee's films have never looked better or so new, SOUND (B) mono only, <the movies are over 25 years old, before the days of stereo in HK>. It would have been nice if they had redubbed all the movies for this release in Dolby Digital 5.1.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Bruce Lee in Widescreen!!!!
Review: Bruce Lee is fantastic and it is worth seeing him in action on the original widescreen format. I would have loved to have in the original lanaguge. The dubbing that CBS/FOX did way back when sounds awlful when played through a home theatre system. I think it might have been better to just get the three Bruce Lee movies, Fist of Fury, Return of the Dragon, & Chinese Connection seperately. The Game of Death isn't worth getting - Bruce Lee is in 13 minutes of film, and 'Bruce Lee the Legend' is ok, but not BRUCE LEE!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: An excellent, but incomplete set.
Review: Excellent digital re-mastering of Bruce Lee's classics. Unfortunately, it's missing "Enter The Dragon", which you'll have to order separately since it's owned by WB and not CBS/FOX, the publishers of the set. This set is simply incomplete without it. I urge the people at Amazon to bundle them in a promotion.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Walk-through of Bruce Lee's life and career.
Review: Very good biography. Lots of behind the scene footage from Game of Death (inluding mess-up scenes). Leads you through Lee's life and career. Also has a screen test of Lee and a clip from Longstreet with him shedding light on his art to the leading character. There's a lot more. Just get the tape.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The one and old Bruce Lee
Review: Bruce Lee totally kick butt (literally) in the four movies featured in the Gift Pack. From Thailand to Shanghai to Rome and then back to Bruce Lee's birthplace in Hong Kong, Lee trashes the bad guys around the world! Really good kung-fu in all of the movies. Although most of the Game of Death is done by a Bruce Lee wannabe, at the end, everyone goes wild when appears! Get it 'cause you won't regret it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE GREATEST COLLECTION EVER
Review: THERE IS NO ONE BETTER THAN BRUCE LEE IN MARITAL ART

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: These are the videos featuring the greatest of all time!!!!!
Review: Bruce Lee defined the genre of modern martial arts films. These films are the only martial arts movies you need to own. While other movies of the genre have great costumes and scenery, Bruce Lee does only what needs to be done: Define who the bad guys are, and destroy them. Other martial arts films will feature stars who use ornate movements based in traditional chinese form and stance. Bruce Lee, however, will show you what years of practice of both western boxing & fencing principles combined with his own chinese kung fu roots. The end result is a straight right and a high kick faster than you can say, 'That's gonna leave a mark.' BUY THE TAPES & BUCKLE UP!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Classic, Immortal, and Pioneer of all fighting movies
Review: Classic, Immortal, and Pioneer of all fighting movies. These movies are not for one segment of taste. The Bruce Lee series are on a classic buffs' to do list. To understand the tone and the root of all fighting movies and scenes these are the fight flicks to do before any Jackie Chan, Vandamme or Segal.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: 5 Stars for Bruce Lee 0 for this DVD set!!
Review: I have to strongly agree with the previous review...and in fact because these are sooo scratch filled, poorly dubbed , missing footage junk...I investigated and found that in the UK they have a great set with original language and subtitles , made from original film without edits and poor saturation and other contrast anomolies that mar this crappy set. The only problem is you need a PAL converter to play the UK sets....BUT ....I found on eBay the 30th anniversary collection from Korea and just received it....at about twice this price...but oh my the package is amazing... a beautiful book....bound like a wedding album...and the movies? The transfers are STUNNING....plus they have bonus interviews , trailers etc....
After watching the Korean edition ....I put this set back in and it really made me sick...really poor quality....and for an Icon like Bruce Lee? If he were alive he would kick the butts of the profiteers at the company issueing this garbage!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is a collector's Item
Review: Any true Bruce Lee fan must have this for his collection. So many reviewers here are focusing on the quality of the Bruce Lee DVDs. Let's not focus on the quality of the DVDs. Let's look at the content of the DVDs. And the content cannot be beat. Where else can you find such Bruce Lee classics like Fists of Fury, The Chinese Connection, Return of the Dragon, and more.
