It's like looking in a mirror, only not.
I remember watching this movie back in the day on VHS. I was on a bit of a John Woo kick back then, watching any and everything he directed. If you get the chance, be sure to check out some of his older flicks he made in Hong Kong, esp The Killer and Hard Boiled. Watching this movie years later, it still holds up. Amazing action (including some of John Woo's trademark tropes he includes in his movies). If you're a fan of Nic Cage, this is one of his more unhinged roles...which probably isn't saying much when talking about him...but ya know what i mean LOL.Amazing audio and video quality. Kino Lorber is up there with Shout! and Criterion for releasing the best quality versions on Blu-ray. If I didn't know the movie came out in 1997, i'd have sworn it was a new release.I recommend this movie to fans of action movies, John Woo movies, and Nicolas Cage movies.

Woowee this transfers good lookin’
Watched this movie for the first time and I’m glad I had the 4K for it, another solid 4k release from Kino Lorber! Nice clean image with a good amount of film grain, really good hdr colors, some parts may be a bit darker than the standard Blu-ray but it’s no dealbreaker. 100 percent recommend if you haven’t picked this up yet.

Essential 4k for any collection
One of the best action movies of all time gets the love and attention it deserves in this 4k restoration. Picture quality consistently great throughout, I just saw so many new details in the film. The soundtrack is amazing. Whilst it's only 5.1 it puts nearly all modern atmos action movies tracks to shame. It's astounding. I am UK based so had to order from the US. Lucky for us this is possible as for some reason 4k availability in the UK is extremely limited. Package arrived when it said it would and all was fine. Definitely worth paying a bit more to see this marvel of cinema get a 4k release. Would be great if the same company did more John Woo films. I shall be researching more what other films they have released. Clearly a highly professional restoration company who take their work seriously.
