Chinastar presents the film in a 1.79:1 aspect ratio approximately. Print is mostly devoid of damage and presents a generally pleasing, sharp image.

The Cantonese Dolby Digital 5.1 track offers up activity in all channels but sounds quite rough in its attempts to create atmosphere. A Mandarin 5.1 dub is also included.

The English subtitles contains some excursions into ropey grammar but all meanings come through overall. The timing is slightly off for a few scenes but it's not bothersome in the long run.

A few extras turn up, most notably a 5 minute, 6 seconds long making of. The usual format of interviews and movie clips is present but with English translation only for the latter, this short program is of no use. The trailer, Chinese language synopsis and filmographies for Emil Chow, Daniel Wu, Maggie Cheung and Grace Yip represents the remainder of the added "value".
