The other (US, I assume) 4K release has an English dub. Does this? Slap dash Cine Asia so I assume not.

Does anyone knows what is happening with this release - in the info for my order from Amazon it says only "Order received", no hint of date, nothing at all. For this movie on Amazon website there is only Prime video available, without physical edition. I've made a preorder last month, and I am really excited for it, but still waiting for it to arrive.

Thank you in anticipation.

Extras? Blimey

Never heard of it. Any good?

All those quotes! Any sign of a reverse sleeve?

Is the 4k Zavvi only? I quite fancy this but would prefer 4k. Cant recall seeing the blu in my local HMV

[Sky_Captain]

Well, they say Zavvi only, but like the Raging Fire steelbook, it'll probably filter out to other retailers at some point.

[Yurakucho]

I think it's the film of the year, but lack of English dub is a big loss (assuming it's, you know, good).
Zavvi 4K a bit pricey.

It's by no means a masterpiece but I found it entertaining enough to sit through it all. As with such modern productions, a lot of CGI use but some of the fight sequences are well staged. The plot was fairly basic but solid enough to make you care about the main characters and I think that's what helped to keep it fairly grounded.

A solid 4/5 from me. I had watched this directly after watching Officer Black Belt though (that's good fun, if a little dark in places).
