Shaolin Wooden Men is my most favorite of Jackie
Chan's early films. However, in my opinion the new Columbia/Tristar DVD version
is such a terrible print of the film that I regret buying it. The entire upper
60% of the screen has a horrible pea green cast to it, making everyone look
seasick. The contrast has been increased, presumably to 'remove' scratches, but
this has darkened so much of the film that you can no longer see any detail in
the woodwork of buildings, the shadows of trees, people's hair and faces, etc.
