Although the picture hasn't been restored, apparently this is the ONLY release of the original UNCUT version of the film available. It runs 1 hour 54 minutes, while the Chinese dvd is only 88 minutes. So this is the dvd to get. and the picture is at least in widescreen format, and is very watchable. Unfortunately this is the lousy English dubbed version only, with no option to watch in Chinese. Still, one of the greatest Kung Fu titles in the Shaw Bros. catalog.

Well after about 10 years of searching for this film I finally found it. This is indeed the only uncut version available in the United States. Its wide screen I cannot vouch for the quality because is obviously taken from a bed original version but it is as close as you are going to get to be for original film that was in American theaters when it was originally released. More importantly it has the original ending whereFull shang Di's in the end. As many of you know the other versions include the so called happy ending where he is arrested and his buddy goes off to live a happy life. I preferred this version and I'm glad to have finally found it I am hopeful that 1 day there will be a Blu-Ray release under the official show brothers release label. For now this is the one you need to get ignore any other versions of this DVD.Read full review

I read other reviews on the video as to the quality but in looking at the movie it was better than I thought. We enjoyed the movie as it was a gift for my boyfriend. We were pleased.
