The overall picture quality is average. The first few minutes during the title sequence makes the movie look 40 years old. The picture gets a little better when the titles end. The subtitles are removable and are easy to read. The English translations are also good.
The soundtrack has both Cantonese and Mandarin tracks. I watched the movie with the Cantonese track. The sound is a re-mix and is mixed pretty evenly. The music and sound effects never overpower the dialogue.
The extras are some short bios of Jet Li and Michelle Yeoh. There is a trailer as well as trailers for FONG SAI YUK I and II.
TAI-CHI MASTER will please fans of wire Kung-Fu. Jet li is great and Michelle Yeoh steals every scene she is in. If you are a fan of the movie, this is a must have if you don't have it already. If you already own this on another format, you may be a little disappointed in the picture quality.
