"FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★ NOTES: Looks beautiful behind all the heavy wear, only ever suffers splices at the end of each reel. Takes a brief dip in volume towards the end. DATE: March 26th 2026 CINEMA: The Prince Charles Cinema LOCATION: West End"
"Chow Yun Fat shoots everybody eighteen times. "
“(OK) La versión extendida no agrega mucho, al parecer. Queda la orgía de balazos que pareciera contradecirse con el melodrama de asesino culposo que se redime con la chica ciega y su código de honrar la amistad; pero, a la vez, él y el policía se muestran vulnerables a algún balazo final tras sortear casi todos.” read more

"25.10. DVD Uusintakatselu. Le Samourain selkeä perillinen onnistuu olemaan häpeilemättömässä melodraamassaan ja järjettömässä väkivallassaankin todella ehyt ja jopa kaunis. Veljeyttä ja moraalikoodistoa käsittelee jo vallan puhuttelevasti."
