I have no way of comparing it to the BD at this point, but as far as I know, the best overall DVD release is the Hong Kong Legends Region 2 release.

I bought it, and watched it Tuesday night. Now bear in mind I haven't seen the film since the Fox Lorber release. While I wasn't blown away, I don't think it was garbage. I would say the picture felt soft, but I dont regret the purchase.

Here's hoping for a better effort with Fist of Legend next month.

Watching it right now. I don't own any of the other releases, but my friends do, so I've seen them plenty. No disgust, just disappointment. It's pretty bad, but all things considered I think it's an improvement.

Re: The Killer ---> 3/30/2010
yeah, but what about the audio? That's what bugged me with all the other Killer releases... What's the best audio option on this and how does it sound?

I am still holding out hope that someone overseas will do this right.

Hopefully Hong Kong Legends will release this on BD in the future and make it the best on the market, just as they did with their DVD.

Agree with most of this... I got it from Netfix and while it is not reference quality it is not even the worst blu I have seen either. Still no excuse for the 1080i but it is still the best this movie has ever looked on the home video format, I own at least 4 different DVD versions and this a lot better as far as picutre quality goes. I will pick it up used from somewhere that way at least I am not really supporting the company that put it out. Someone before me did that.
