This version is of the longer Hong Kong cut of Police Story 4: First Strike. Unfortunatly the audio is in Mandarin only and does not contain the original Cantonese audio track that is partially in English. The subtitles are also quite poor as you can see from the quality examples below. They are analog and burned into the print.

This is the original, uncut HK Version of First Strike. I didn't really enjoy First Strike as well as the other Police Story releases, until now. For me, the uncut version is a must. I will never watch the other version and be happy with it.

btw: I list the language here has either Cantonese/Mandarin but it is actually mostly in English. The only chinese is when Jackie is talking to his uncle, or when he asks the other Chinese people in the movie if the speak Mandarin. Mostly though Jackie is speaking english with everyone else.
