About this deal

If you let me go, all this is yours. A once-in-three-lifetimes chance, no one will ever find out.” – Chu Tao (trying to bribe Ka-Kui.) Of course, I should have put my faith in Eureka, who are now bringing the film out on Blu-ray as well as in a new Police Story Trilogy collection on 4K UHD. I don’t have 4K facilities (yet) so I got hold of the Blu-ray and my thoughts follow.

Andrew Hernandez on Arriving in January is Eureka’s Blu-ray for ‘When Taekwondo Strikes’ starring Jhoon Rhee and Angela Mao Not at all! Stoner was a fun guilty pleasure. Sleazy and kind of stupid, but… about its show is its fantastic theme song, kind of ironically written by a guy with Burke in his very name, Herschel (Burke) Gilbert. (For those

Eureka Entertainment has already blessed us with a standard Blu-ray box set of the first two Police Story films. In my original review of Police Story 3, I stated it was absolutely crying out for a restoration and re-release. In fact, I still have my original VHS version so I can watch it uncut! Not only has my prayer been answered, it has been delivered in glorious, ultra-high definition 4K in this new box set! Each film is newly restored in 4K from the original camera negatives in Dolby Vision. They come to 4K Ultra HD in 2.35:1 HEVC 2160p encodements. There are naturally incremental improvements from one film to the next given the improvements in production and the differences in age for the sources, but they all look generally good with mostly natural grain structure, outside of some occasional issues on Police Story 1 where there is some noticeable grain reduction and slight smearing, particularly early on in the film. Starting from Police Story 2, the detail, textures, and grain remain quite crisp and consistent from start to finish. The application of Dolby Vision is subtle at best, not necessarily adding lots of brightness or staggering amounts of dynamic range, but there is good specular highlight ‘pop’ to be seen in some of the neon signage and where there are explosions or any sorts of flames they looks very three-dimensional and have more color to them.

this version can show some momentary focus pulling issues that aren't quite as noticeable in the 1080 presentation. This offers some kind of quaint Most fans will be wondering just where you go from the 2018 4K remastered Blu-rays that Eureka released, because they were - at least at the time - comfortably the definitive way to watch the first two movies, bringing them to our screens (and to the correct aspect ratio) in stunning style, afforded a revitalisation that, whilst hardly concealing the minimalist budget of these movies, still gave them a new lease of life. For many, it was like watching them for the first time, a transformation from full-screen, soft, possibly wrong cuts to give us the Police Story movies like never seen before. both the action and comedy arenas. 88 Films offers a release with solid technical merits and some very appealing supplements. Highly New Police Story ( Chinese: 新警察故事), made in 2004, is a reboot of the Police Story series.

POLICE STORY 3: SUPER COP Original 1992 English Trailer Andrew Hernandez on Arriving in January is Eureka’s Blu-ray for ‘When Taekwondo Strikes’ starring Jhoon Rhee and Angela Mao It varies. I think Chu Yen-Ping films are piles of shit, but lots of people e… 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. Police Story III: Supercop is a fun and often quite funny vehicle for both Chan and Yeoh, both of whom acquit themselves spectacularly in

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. Jonathan Ross: “The Son of the Incredibly Strange Film Show” I’m ashamed to admit that, despite being a self-professed fan of martial arts movies, I’ve never seen Police Story 3: Supercop. For a long time, I believed I owned it on DVD, but when I finally got around to watching the disc I realised I’d been duped by a dodgy distributor who’d labelled the inferior Supercop 2 as simply Supercop. Kenneth Tsang was doubled by director Stanley Tong for a helicopter stunt. Tong broke his shin and can be seen with his leg in plaster and on crutches during the third film’s end credits.

Additionally, there are multiple cuts of the films, from export cuts to original Hong Kong Cuts and more (the alternate cuts are all in HD). So, Eureka has come through once again with a must-have collectible set for these classics. so-called mainland China, replete with its Communist ideology and militarized mien.
