When I saw the series the very first time I was eleven years old and I enjoyed the fightings and the honourful men and women. Three years later I had the chance to see it again and it filled my heart. Due to this movie I started drinking tea. ;-)

Now, as the series is also available on DVD I bought the DVD boxes and saw them again and again. Especially in these "interesting" times we are in, this world will need the rebells again, to fight against cruelty (by terrorists) and corruption (within the countries we all live in). Rebells, who stand for honour and fairness. And we need love to see that there are still good things in live which are worth living for.

I can absolutely recommend this series. Especially when you are interested in China. The actors have done a very good job and they played very well.

I can only comment on this movie as being a great Kungfu action and adventure series. This was my favorite far east series as I was a kid I recently saw them again and the series remains great. I would recommend this one to everyone

I also discovered you get get it on DVD search Ebay It's 2 seasons long with each 13 episodes but it is English dubbed then though i heard and read somewhere on the net that it is also out in Asia and Chinese spoken and Eng sub tittle This is also a good series for kids i would say it action but you don't see any blood in it I would recommend thoug ages 9 and up.

So everyone who like some good old fashion action/ Kunfy watch this one Might be a little to old styled for some people

I remember this series well. It was broadcast on Dutch television (as on British television as I gather from their: I love the 70's TV-series). It's about a sort of Robin Hood-like character called Lin Chung and his band of merry men and women. It had I recall beautiful fight-scenes and a very good plot. If you loved "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" try to get a hold of this somehow.

I grew up in England and watched The Water Margin when it was first broadcast on British TV. I found the series gripping and the characters fascinating, particularly the interplay between the hero and the honorable villain. I must admit to having forgotten the program for some years until my son rented the video of The Seven Samurai and that brought it back to my mind. What a pity that the series is available only in European format.

Loved this as a child and watched it religiously on BBC2 every week. It was very much centred on story rather than mindless violence, a sort of Robin Hood and King Arthur in one. It also featured an interesting mix, not only of martial arts but also of wizards, clever tricks, evil villains... It also conveyed well the concepts of good, bad, betrayal and other timeless morals that can be understood anywhere rather than being a front for Chinese propaganda as I found HERO to be. The movement was also believable rather than looking like people at he end of wires. Breaks my heart to see so much rubbish on the big screen these days, yet Hollywood has never made this into a Blockbuster. Certainly one to rent or buy if you can!
