Johnnie To Films on Blu-ray

[Grethiwha]

Although there are only a handful of Johnnie To movies with domestic blu-ray releases, he's very well-represented on the format with over 30 releases total. This is because most of his movies are available in Hong Kong. Anyone interested in importing will be happy to know that all these HK releases have English subtitles, and HK releases are relatively cheap to import compared to, say, Korean or Japanese imports.

Anyway, a fair number of these releases have reviews, or have their own threads, but I thought I'd create this thread for easy reference, and so people can discuss/recommend/rank Johnnie To movies/blu-rays more broadly. Personally, of the, like, 15 I've seen, I think Mad Detective and Exiled are major masterpieces, and must-owns!
