Supercop DVD (1993)

Michelle Yeoh kicks into action as "Supercop" on a fair DVD.

Many Hong Kong films have a slightly washed-out appearance in colour balance and it's reflected here in the picture transfer. While not anamorphic (a process which carries extra coding to create a more detailed picture on a widescreen TV), the picture is quite clear, if a little soft.

The 2.0 sound mix sticks to the centre speaker so don't expect much in the way of audio excitement.

The presentation of the disc is good with funky animated menus leading you to a production stills gallery and trailer. Rather naughtily labelled as an 'extra feature' is 'Inspector Chan Wears a Skirt'. Unfortunately this is no more than the one scene with Jackie Chan in the movie, extracted as a featurette.

Michelle Yeoh fans should note that this was previously released on video as "Project S" and this DVD is a slight improvement.
