OVERALL: Draw
The UK 88 Films release is uncut, has uncompressed original mono tracks, optional subtitles, an exclusive commentary, an exclusive featurette and has the deleted scenes and vintage featurettes found on the previous US & UK releases.
The US Vivendi and UK Cine Asia releases have a differing commentary, but are cut and have lossy audio.
The French release has lossless Cantonese audio and exclusive extras, but the French subtitles are forced.
General note:
- The English dub is completely different from the original Cantonese soundtrack in terms of music, foley, voice artists and sound effects. The dialogue also includes a plot change: Chen Jen marries Mitsuko in this version.
Also available in:
- China by HPM
- Spain by JRB Productions -
