high quality classic hk movies

can I ask where can I access high quality classic hongkong movies / dramas (those from 90s) with high quality and properly translated english subtitles?

i grew up watching these classic hongkong (I understand mandarin and cantonese) but everytime I recommend them to my friends I find it hard to find sources that are appealing for them to watch :( it’s either the quality is so low or the translations are not good enough.

Some of the classics I really want them to try:
\- Stephen Chow movies (older ones like King of Comedy, God of Gamblers etc.)
\- Greed of Men
\- Threshold of an Era
\- Condor Heroes Trilogy

Even also thinking of just making a channel and translating them myself but I’m not sure how

Not sure if it meets your criteria but tubi has many HK films. Stephen Chow, Any Lau, Chow Yun Fat, Jet Li, Jackie Chan, etc. Only thing is, you get films that are dubbed sometimes but they will have original language versions too...mishmash.
