Notes: This is currently the most complete version of the film available although it is still cut by around 20 seconds (for violence). Personally, I'm not sure I could stomach the film being any longer so this is probably an advantage.

Winson Entertainment dvd is presented in approximately 1.85:1. I say that because, according to some net reviews, it has been culled from a few different sources. This is most notable when in the upper widescreen matte. It's slightly opening up as the movie progresses and I had to zoom out on ocassions to not cut off any picture information. Kind of annoying but the good side is that it's the least censored english subtitled version on dvd currently. The cuts amount to about 20 seconds of violent footage. Other than that the picture looks only decent with some scenes being rather heavy on print damege, and some not. Colurs sometimes feel a bit oversaturated and detail is only average.

The sound comes in cantonese and mandarin Dolby Digital 5.1 and 2.0 tracks. The original cantonese track is very centered but works fine with music and dialogue presented well. I switched to the 5.1 and noticed that it was set a much higher sound level and it sounded like a really bad remix to me.

The english subtitles are of general high quality and didn't contain too much spelling disasters. Traditonal and simplified chinese subtitles are also included.

There's no extras on the disc.
