My problem with the new Drunken Master DVD...
So Columbia Tristar has been rereleasing all the old Jackie Chan films on DVD. And so far they have been great--widescreen and with an original Chinese track. So I picked up the original DM tonight at Wal-Mart--popped it in and much to my surprise--the Chinese track is a mix of English and Chinese--it's the strangest thing I've ever seen--one minute they're talking in Chinese the next in English.
I even took it back and picked up another copy--but it's the same. So if you're looking for the film in it's original version--this doesn't quite cut it, but otherwise the picture quality is superb and I highly recommend the film--it's a fine example of kung fu at its best.
If anyone else has picked it up, let me know if you have the same problem. I sent an e-mail to the company to find out if other have complained about it...
