Viewing Notes

Another classic John Woo film, and my second favorite, that I haven’t revisited in quite a while! I have this on Criterion Blu but it’s so old and the print isn’t anywhere near up to Criterion’s usual standards. I really need to get this and THE KILLER on Blu but that’s pretty difficult.
