equivalent of Police Woman, albeit with a facility for martial arts that Pepper Anderson never had. In the Line of Duty III (Limited Edition) is out on Blu-ray in the UK 20 March 2023 from Eureka Entertainment. The story just barely hangs together, and there are several Ed Woodian shifts between night and day and between locations, but coming to this movie for a complex investigative storyline is like going to a Friday the 13 th movie for an in depth exploration of teenage relationships… even if you DID get that it’s not really the point. leap toward international superstardom, while the subsequent two films feature Cynthia Khan.

On March 20, 2023, Eureka will be releasing the Blu-ray (Region B) for In the Line of Duty III, a 1988 Hong Kong actioner directed by Arthur Wong ( Ulterior Motive) and Brandy Yuen ( Three Against the World). There is a chance to read into the Hong Kong/American alliance, wherein the U.S. police immediately turns to fighting rather than arrests. That idea dissipates though as other In the Line of Duty entries did the same, just with other nations like Japan. Each film gives Hong Kong a superior sensibility, and Khan is capable of making her reluctance logical. It’s part of her character, and transitioning between sequels is easier for it.

It’s available for pre ord… The story, as ever, is largely a framework to hang the action on, but this time it sees Khan as a relatively inexperienced cop who impresses her superiors by taking down a robber and is sent to the serious crimes squad, commanded by her uncle (Paul Chun), who doesn’t want her to be a cop. Meanwhile, in Tokyo, a team of thieves led by by a couple (Stuart Ong as Nakamura and Michiko Nishiwaki who simply uses her real name for the character) takes down a jewellery show by a famous designer, killing many people in the process, including the partner of Policeman Hiroshi Fujioka (also using his real name in character). He comes to Hong Kong on their trail, and ends up teaming up with Khan to take the male and female thieves down.JJ Bona on So Close | Blu-ray (88 Films) From what I gathered it was Region B (they seem to label their A/B releases p… Gaylord Picht on Hard Target | 4K UHD + Blu-ray (Kino Lorber) That's fantastic news!

Learning a great deal from the master action director Yuen Woo-ping and action star Donnie yen, Salvitti went onto have a successful career as a fight choreographer in his own right. He most recently re-teamed with Donnie for the films “Flashpoint”, “Special ID” and “Kung Fu Killer”, and worked with Jean-Claude Van Damme on “Pound of Flesh”.

Cynthia Khan breaks out as a compelling action star taking the reins from Michelle Yeoh in this fast-pace third entry. In the Line of Duty III looks great and is one of the better sequels around. Highly recommended.

films, Frank Djeng kind of hilariously gets into how this supposed "series" really isn't by any objective standard, and that in fact due to the Ska Martes on Believer 2 (2023) Review Disappointing but not surprising that this is just more useless Netflix conte… Action superstar Donnie Yen and Cynthia Khan team up with legendary martial-arts director Yuen Woo-ping in this fan-favourite fourth entry in the In the Line of Duty film series. In the Line of Duty IV spends minimal time on storyline, retreading the familiar series routine of international police joining on a case, with Khan the righteous, rule-following cop. Yen, as her partner, chooses violence over courtroom justice. It’s ludicrous in a sense as Yen plays an “American” cop from “Seattle,” but that’s rapidly forgotten – In the Line of Duty IV is close to all action, or as close as possible without losing interest in the crime drama entirely. To cash in on the success of “Tiger Cage”, Donnie Yen starred with Cynthia Khan in “In the Line of Duty 4”. When “In the Line of Duty 4” made it to DVD on the Hong Kong Legends label, it was released as “In the Line of Duty”.
