(4 out of 5 stars)

"I bought this because I want Big Guns with English dub. The quality of the picture (Big Guns) is not as excellent as the one released by Fox Pathé Europe, but for 5-in-1 DVD at this price, I know I should not complain. The picture quality is not the same for all 5 movies: Big Guns and Emergency Squad have good picture quality, while the other 3 are copied from VHS (I can even see some white vertical lines across the screen). Sound for Violent Professionals is the worst, and I cannot hear the dialogues very well. I must add, though, that English is not my first language. I will give 5 stars for Big Guns alone, but I must reduce 1 star because there are no English subtitles for hard-of-hearing. Maybe if the subtitles were available, I could understand Violent Professionals's dialogues. However, again, for such price, I think I am not entitled to ask for subtitles. In all 5 movies, there are nice car chase scenes, which were really done by stuntmen, unlike nowadays where CGI does most of them and the result is very fast chases which cannot be seen and enjoyed."
