Criterion will be releasing a 6-film Jackie Chan set in November!
Note: Several members have reported issues with the packaging being too tight, with great difficulty getting the digipak out. If you're having trouble, the easiest solution is to open it from the other side, and simply push the digipak out (credit to fitprod for this suggestion). It apparently gets easier to remove after that first time.
