Chow Yun Fat and Anthony Wong star in this classic movie. Chow Yun Fat is a night club bouncer who helps to steal a truckload of weapons to help Anthony Wong repay a debt to a loan shark. During the job, he is betrayed. Left for dead, he plans and executes his revenge. Simon Yam plays the head bad guy who has a crush on Chow Yun Fat.

FULL CONTACT is directed by Ringo Lam and is packed with brutal action. Gun battles, car chases, and knife fights, this movie has it all. Chow Yun fat is his usual badass self but taken up a notch. No suit and tie in this movie, just sleeveless shirts so he can get right down to business. Even though he has vengeance on his mind, he still finds time to see a woman who is badly burned when she is caught in the cross fire between him and his betrayers. This movie also has a classic "getting prepared for my revenge scene". Music plays over a montage that shows Chow Yun Fat as heals from his wounds and retraining himself to fire a gun. Anthony Wong also puts in a great performance. While he jumps a little too quickly from being a weakling to a tough guy, he pulls it off. There is definitely more depth to this character than the one he played in HARD BOILED. Simon Yam has a quirky role of the villain who takes Anthony Wong under his wing.

While not anamorphic, the image isn't bad. The film print used does have it's share of scratches but overall in good condition. The sides of the image are slightly cropped but there seems to be more information at the top of the screen than the remastered Mei Ah DVD. This DVD has good detail and doesn't have the smoothed over look of the Mei Ah. There are occasional flashes in the image as if somebody turned the vacuum on. Dark scenes do display some minor artifacts but overall not bad on the 47 inch screen.

There is only one soundtrack and that is Mandarin. As with the LSI version of HARD BOILED, it is odd to listen too since I always watched these movies with the Cantonese track. Occasionally the dialogue is a little too upfront in the mix but overall not bad at all.
