Summary: Great Movie... Defective Disc
Review: This review is referring specifically to the new 2-Disc Anniversary Edition of MotFG. Needless to say, this movie is a kung fu classic and this remaster looks and sounds excellent (as good as it can get). The first disc includes the original Mandarin version, while disc 2 includes the dubbed version. However, on Disc 2 (the English dubbed disc) there is a glitch which keeps chapter 10 from playing (roughly 32 minutes into the movie). I don't know how widespread this problem may be (or not), but keep this in mind.

Summary: Classic movie, very good DVD with some problems
Review: This Ultimate Edition stuff just should not be used as a term for DVDs unless there really is no more room for improvement. That said, this is a great effort in restoration of a classic movie. The movie itself is a must see for martial arts fans. Special features are very well done. However, the picture still could have been cleaned up more. And the flickering of the image as well as color issues were also places where improvement had room. But overall well worth buying even if it's not exactly Ultimate.
