Search - The Unconquered on DVD

One of the worst films I've seen

"This is a Chinese film in English with subtitles, set during the Qing dynasty. To be fair, it might not have been so bad if it was in Chinese with English subtitles, but the dubbing is terrible. The characters speak in contemporary American English, which destroys any credibility it might have had. (Try and imagine a traditionally costumed Chinese woman saying "I don't think so!".) Definitely worth missing."

Worse than awful

"The previous reviewer was very generous. Fortunately I did not spend the whole 5 plus hours watching both movies. It is really two movies using the same characters and the same lousy overdubs. Some of the scenes are used in both movies so you get to see them over again with a different story and plot. Neither of the movies make any sense at all. How could you possibly get interrested in a character named Kung Fu Wong. The action sequences are incomprehensible. The acting is horrible. As previously stated, the overdubbed english speaking voices are probably the worst part. I really wish I could somehow get the time I spent watching it back. I could do something constructive with it, like change the air in my truck tires."

Re-edited Chinese TV series

"As well as being terribly dubbed, this is also simply a recent Chinese TV series that has been re-edited into a movie. Avoid!"
