 One of the best I've seen August 17, 2008
Roberto Solorzano (San Diego, CA)
One of the best kung fu films I have ever seen. It is absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Great choreography and wire work even though you can see the actual wires used in some scenes. This new DVD release is far superior to the previous Twin Warriors release.
just a remaster not a new movie July 28, 2008
J. Deuell (Alaska)
This movie exists in another form the movie was orginally named "Twin Warriors" i have that movie really great movie about if you are interested in learning about what Tai-Chi is about, along with the fights. i will be getting this movie and watch see if it stands up to the orignal
One of Jet Li's best... but the question is, "What @ the Transfer?" July 1, 2008

This really isn't a review (though the martial arts choreography in the film is pretty fanciful, it's still pretty solid). What I'd like to know is whether or not the featured film in this new edition has been is remastered. I have an earlier Hong Kong edition - however the transfer was mediocre at best. I'd preorder this edition, but I need to know: has Yuen Woo Ping's "Tai Chi Master" been remastered... or is this yet another edition of same lackluster transfer marketed in Hong Kong? br / br /Please advise....
Of fighting like Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon; no wonder - it's the same action director! June 29, 2008

Anybody who's anybody will watch this movie. After discovering it in my grandpa's collection of Chinese movies, I've watched this many times. Kungfu from the Shaolin temple is amazing, but best of all when you have Jet Li perform it. br / br /Jet Li and his friend grow up in the temple together, inseparable. But when they get kicked out, they go opposite ways and become enemies. Jet Li leads a rebellion agianst the harsh government of which his friend is cruelly abusing his status as lieutenant. Betrayals or sorts leads Jet Li to found, after meditation, Tai Chi, and a final battle is held with breath-taking fighting scenes. br / br /A light-hearted comedy at times or serious action at others, the Tai Chi Master is truly master of fighting in the movie industry.
New cut (2008), restored, in Cantonese, with subtitles.... March 13, 2008

NOTICE: br /This review was edited 09/15/2008.... br / br /On July 29, 2008, Dragon Dynasty released a re-mastered 96 minute cut OF THE ORIGINAL, which included the original Cantonese soundtrack. br / br /I picked it up this weekend..... br / br /The subtitles are improved (much easier to see than the original VHS version), the translations slightly changed, and the excellent opening scene song at San Feng's academy grounds (dropped in favor of cheesy Chinese elevator music in "TW") is reinstalled. br / br /If you like old school "Kung Fu" movies, you'll like this updated versdion choreographed by the Master, Yuen Wo Ping. br / br / The truly phenomenal wushu skills of the two leads (Jet Li and the little known but incredible Chin Siu Ho), make this an excellent show.. br / br /Gone is the bad taste of "Twin Warriors". br /
