Jackie Chan PAL to NTSC conversion DVDs - Help
I want to order the HK version of "Who Am I" but after doing my research I'm a little weary of the quality of HK DVDs. It seems a lot of Jackie Chan DVDs are converted from PAL to NTSC, and the video suffers as a result.
Only one exception I found, a version of Police Story. Can anyone clue me in on what DVDs I should look for and what to stay away from?
Thanks in advance,
Jeremy

The video suffers due to the fact that most HK dvd's are only single layered (a silver disc).
If you are concerned with movies that are converted from PAL to NTSC (some are, but i think a large majority are NTSC orginally)
If you want "Who am I?" and have a region free player i suggest looking for the Japanese release of the movie.

The Japanese WHO AM I? is exceptional. The best there is. Get the DD5.1 version. It is cheaper than the DTS edition, which sounds exactly the same. I did a review over at...
