Beast Cops

[Dagada]

Well done HKL! This is an excellent film, and the extras may not be abundant, but there's certainly quality over quantity. The picture and sound are superb, with excellent and clear subs. As ever, Bey Logan provides his usual interesting comentary, this time joined by the director. The only other extras are a number of interviews and the usual gallery of trailers.

The film itself is much more gritty and realistic than many will be used to from an HK film, although there are some moments of humour dotted through the film. I believe this is uncut, too - certainly some of the violence is quite strong.

Talking of strong violence - I heard rumours that Story Of Ricky was coming to the UK uncut. Is this true?

I'm still waiting for my copy of Beast Cops from an online retailer (groan)
I'm starting to think that although the high street will cost me more at least I'll have the disc in my hands :rolleyes:
