The Assassins ... - Blu-ray Forum

As with other Well Go USA blu rays I have purchased in the past decided to add THE ASSASSINS to my collection. The first disc arrived and played except during the credits at the end when the picture would freeze and you would have to manually advance the BD. I thought nothing of it, but went to the supplemental material (Behind the scenes and Trailer) and the cast interviews continued every 40 seconds or so to freeze which meant trying to understand and read the subs of Chow Yun-Fats interview practically impossible. I tried the BR in both my Panasonic and Sony players and the same thing was happening at exactly the same times.

Amazon replaced the BR overnight and with the second attempt the BR refuses to play at all. You insert it in your players and it just spins and clunks. I will be sending this copy back as well this time for a refund, and will pick up the film in its original Hong Kong pressing from DDD House. Just wanted to warn forum members that you may have a problem with your Well Go copy of this film, and I look forward to reading how you have made out with your copy of what should be an excellent new film from them.

Thanks for reading.
