Widesights dvd presentation is pretty average but a acceptable release for this very recent movie. The 1.85:1 aspect ratio is preserved here and for the most part it looks good. There are only a few marks on the print and sharpness is pretty good. I felt that colours were a little weak though and I would've liked anamorphic enhancement also.

The sound comes in cantonese and mandarin Dolby Digital 2.0 tracks. I'm not sure if the movie was shown in cinemas in 5.1 but regardless it's only an ok track. Music is spread out nicely but dialogue is sometimes a little loud and harsh. It didn't bother me too much but it could've been better.

The english subtitles are optional and contains a few spelling errors but nothing too major. There are a few moments in the film where the subtitles go out of sync with the dialogue but this doesn't last long. Traditional and simplified chinese subtitles are also included.

The extras consists of the theatrical trailer which looks a tad worse than the feature. It does feature a pretty funny outtake at the end showing Louis and Miriam cracking each other up. The only other extra is a deleted scene presented in widescreen but with no english subtitles. It's nothing much but I enjoyed watching more of Miriams performance.
