An Empress and the Warriors Blu-ray Review

[Arkitect76]

I have the UK version...its an ok movie....the war scenes are hot though....but I was wondering which version (US or UK) is better....

[Old Bones]

Although I have not seen the UK or US versions , I would say the HK version would be the best. They never have poor video and it has 7.1 audio in all 3 choises.

I had made comparison between HK and French version before
IMO, french's PQ is much better than HK one
but it contains Mandarin and French audio tracks only
and english subtitle is not available

Here's a question...on the cover, why is Donnie Yen's name over Kelly Chen's body (and vice-versa)?

Sorry, I do not see that the French version has better PQ in those shots at all. I own the HK version of quite a few of these films, and theirs are better 80% of the time. Particularly, I recently purchased Seven Swords. Better, PQ/AQ and multi-select audio! Pretty soon, I'll be picking up the HK version of Fearless, as the U.S. release leaves a lot to be desired as far as AQ! Anytime you can opt for 7.1 in DTS Master HD and Dolby True HD, you should go for it! Across the board... !

Dragon , I agree , the French is darker and the colors are off , plus it's a no brainer on the sound options , I'll stick with the HK
