Set worthy of the name "Master Collection"
NOTICE: Enter The Dragon does NOT include the subtitles that are mentioned on the slipcover. See the photo I've attached to see the actual subtitles included.This boxset is propably the best choice if you haven't seen any Bruce Lee films or if you don't own them. It includes all of them with few documentaries about him and hours of extras, so it's well worth the price.Video and audio quality vary a bit from film to film, but it's understandable. Quality is still great, even though audio is not properly synced with the picture on some of the audio tracks like some other reviewers have said. However, if you watch all the films in their original language (it's always the default audio track on each disc), you should have no problems.If you like Lee or martial arts films, this set is a must buy. All the films are entertaining (though Game of Death is a disgrace to Lee's memory) and you'll like them even if you wouldn't love them.

You don't buy Bruce Lee for the stories or the dialogue. Its a martial arts ballet and now you have front row seats, with HD, so every move is that much more impressive, The natural sound is best for all these old films, that were dubbed and with poor sound quality . So the best sound I suggest is in the original mono mandarin it's a lovely language which gives a added emotion, which is lost with dubbing, and add English subtitles.The surround sound only has dogs barking, tweetie birds and road noise and bad music. This is a review of Big Boss only so I will update once of seen the rest. Love the package, piles of extras.

Still never been equalled bruce lee was ahead with his style and skills and will be for many years to come
Great blu ray set and also becoming hard to find. The best bruce lee collection so far I think,all the uncut versions you can get are here apart from 2 scenes which have never been available I believe! The remastered picture is great but the sound is a little off so had to turn the volume up,the films stories are a bit dated and sometimes laughable but bruce lee is still awesome as ever! Bruce's last movie The game of deaths few fight scenes with the real bruce lee (because he has past before finishing) can be found on the extras in full and are better than the actual rubbish movie Hollywood threw together.

Let down by a horrible blue filter and out of sync audio tracks!
Finally we get a 4k release of 4 out of the 5 Bruce Lee movies, whilst Enter the Dragon is a duplicate of the previous Blu ray. Here is my review of this latest edition of these movies.Picture:First of all the detail in the picture quality is amazing and almost beyond belief, I really did not think it was possible to clean up these movies to the degree it has been. However there is a huge drawback with the picture, and that is all the movies, except for Enter the Dragon have had a horrible blue filter applied to it, in addition to this they have been heavily de-contrasted. How all these other reviewers on amazon and rest of the internet have not picked up on this is absolutely beyond me! How much of a fan are you to these movies if you can't even notice the bloody blue filter! Fist of Fury is the most effected by this tint. The only reason I bought this set is because I knew that the Shout Factory release had the blue filters on them and there is a video on You tube showing a comparison to DVD, and I didn't think these had the horrible filters, but hey presto there it is on the 4k releases, so thank you again to the HD remastering team for ruining one of my beloved childhood treasures of all time, round of a applause to you all!!Sound:We also have a problem here. Fist of Fury, The Big Boss, The Way of the Dragon all have about 7 tracks each. I have listened to every track on each disc with a fine ear, and as a few other reviewers have already mentioned, there are audio syncing problems. Having said that at least one track on each of these discs is perfectly in sync, but the rest are all out of sync by some milliseconds. Unfortunately Enter the Dragon's Blu ray re-release is out of sync as well, and since this set includes that exact same edition, the audio on that disc is out of sync by 15 milliseconds exactly. It's still disappointing to this day that Enter the Dragon does not come with it's original English mono track, they have provided this in various other languages on the disc but not English.Presentation:Each disc comes with cheap artwork, and nowhere on the box does it says that the movies are re-mastered in 4k. The Blu ray menus are very box standard with nothing innovative. The Hong Kong releases of the DVD's were far more creative with their menu designs. Enter the Dragon looks the worst in this regard, the title menu buttons look like they have been taken off google or something. There are no additional supplementary features for this release, everything has been ported over from previous platinum and collector edition DVD's. The commentary track by Mike Leader is not in very good quality at all, and has a terrible echo.Overall Verdict:The Bruce Lee movies have been re-released to death, but still to this day no one has done them any justice. In regards to the blue filter, out of sync audio tracks, excluding the English mono track for Enter The Dragon, along with a whole host of additional extra features, not to mention poor presentation, this is just not acceptable. Bruce Lee deserves better than this!

Audio
It includes English, Mandarin and Cantonese languages where applicable (just the same ones issued on the 2015 BR+DVD Mediumrare edition). There are other languages and subtitles available on Enter The Dragon (just like in Warner's release). The image quality is superior to the former BR release, much more clearer and with a more vivid colour and less grain.Unfortunately Fist of Fury still has the same audio error: Mandarin 5.1 plays Mandarin Mono with a very low sound track and Mandarin Mono plays Cantonese Mono. It's a pity they didn't correct this.Also inside disc covers use the new commissioned artwork, no reversible sleeves with the original one this time.I'm attaching a photo of the languages available.

Worth the DVD upgrade - great value
If you dont know Bruce Lee - what are you?This Blu ray box set has better transfers of his 4 and a half movies that were on HKL/cineasia/ WB labels on DVD format. It is worth the upgrade and has nearly all the features that were on DVD ( I compared each title). If you never owned any Bruce Lee movies, this is a great start. If you own the DVDs then also worth the upgrade. I personally felt the design and cover art were better on some DVDs, but sometimes you cant have it all.

Great.
Bought this for my dad for Christmas, he still hasn't watched them yet, but all the films he loved when they came out, he went to see enter the dragon several times at the cinema, so this was a must have.

awesome
it was really cool to watch again Bruce Lee classics like "Enter the Dragon" and "Way of the Dragon" (Roman coliseum battle with Chuck Norris. wow!) in blu-ray format. 5 films altogether at a decent price.the blu-ray disc's didn't run on video game consoles but they worked for us on a PC blu-ray drive and video software. delivery time was earlier than expected. yay! discs and packaging looked in good order.thank you MPlusL.de in Germany.this Bruce Lee fan and his family are really happy to be able to watch the martial arts legend and film star in action again.

Doesn't work with American consoles
I was excited to give this to my husband for Christmas but was really disappointed to find that it didn't work on any of our consoles! It only works with European products. It would have been nice if they would've given a warning beforehand because I would've never bought it.

Movie pack
Can’t use this product, was not advertised that it could not be used in Canada. All it said was Region 2 . Now I’m more careful as to what movies I order. Doesn’t help that I’m out over $60. I did find out that it can be played on a computer, but I don’t have a computer. I will try and sell on Kijiji but will say on computers only.
