Whirlrwind Knight DVD review and screencaps!
Some good news with this film. The credits are really really beat up and there is no company logo (so I couldn't tell you if First Films or United Faming Bowl Film Co made it), BUT thats it. The picture while worn and such (not as good as Eight Immortals but loads better than King of Kings) is very easy on the eyes when it comes to watching the film and the colors are decent too. The audio is hissy, but its nothing kung fu fans have not dealt with before (it is bad during the credits). Still very watchable so if you have any interest in the plot than put this flick on preorder, because based on my spot checking this disc looks like a winner.
Unfortunately there seems to be a chunk of footage missing from this release, about 2/3rds of the way through. I'd guess a minute or two are gone with a jump cut - nothing too vital, as it didn't seem to render anything in the remainder of the film incomprehensible, but enough to be jarring and confusing for a little while.
