Aside from the quality of the action, the extra features in this box set are very impressive. Just about every audio option you could wish for is available as well as various different cuts of each movie, and a selection of deleted and alternate scenes, some of which are debuting in the UK for the very first time.

very pleasing looking 4K UHD presentation and again judging solely by screenshots (I do not have the Eureka release), I actually preferred the With a reputation as the ‘supercop’ of the Hong Kong police force, Ka-Kui is sent to mainland China where he teams up with Red Chinese police Interpol director, Inspector Jessica Yang (Michelle Yeoh) to take down drug lord Chaibat (Kenneth Tsang). Ka-Kui and Yang go undercover and infiltrate Chaibat’s gang, gaining their trust and getting to the heart of the organisation. It’s not very often that a sequel to an action movie asks its hero to deal with the real world consequences of what they did in the first film. As Police Story 2 opens (well, following a montage of all the most awesome bits from the previous film), we find Chan Ka-kui demoted to traffic duty because of immense amounts his heroics cost the city in damages, and his old foe Chu Tao out on compassionate release, having been given months to live. Chu Tao’s goons threaten both Ka-kui and his still put upon girlfriend May (a returning Maggie Cheung), but his attention is soon taken up by a bomber threatening a major company.New programs on Chan’s screen persona and action-filmmaking techniques featuring author and New York Asian Film Festival cofounder Grady Hendrix As the recent explosion of Asian cinema continues to thrive on home video around the world, Supercop is a reminder of the success of simplicity. The charms of the film’s leads and the talents of the stuntpeople are what continues to make it one of the most popular action films in its class. 88 Films’ UHD release is definitely one to own for long-time fans. Highly recommended. Lines, along with selected archival materials. The keepcase features an inner sleeve featuring Hong Kong poster artwork, and holds six replica lobby

Set in a shopping mall, the climax is a dazzling destruction of store displays. If there’s a record, it’s the amount of shattering glass. Men fall through marketing displays, bust up expensive jewelry counters, and send a motorcycle to ruin. Despite the precision beauty of Hong Kong martial arts choreography, the setting looks and feels entirely western. Destroying it is Chan’s release.
Great Deal
