The 1.85:1 presentation by Universe is pretty acceptable. Clean print but colours come out as dull and slightly muddled. That changes from scene to scene at times as well.

The Cantonese 5.1 Dolby Digital track is lively and uses the entire soundfield when applicable. A Mandarin 5.1 dub is also included.

The English subtitles presented no problems aside from one or two spelling errors. Again, Universe opts to place them partly below the frame which isn't preferable for us widescreen owners. Traditional and simplified Chinese subtitles are also included.

The Making Of (6 minutes 3 seconds) is, as per usual, unsubtitled but doesn't seem to provide much information about the movie. Mostly it's devoted to behind the scenes clips and there is some amusement to be found in those. In particular, Nick Cheung filming his bungee jump.

Star's Files for Nick Cheung, Ruby Wong are reasonably informative but Anthony's is disappointingly brief, considering he's done much more in the industry than the other two. Trailers for Forever And Ever, Everyday Is Valentine, Gold Fingers and Runaway are also on the disc.
