There's a significant amount of detail noticeable here that isn't quite as obvious on the included Blu-ray disc, and better depth and texture to the picture as well.

At one point, Van Damme punches a snake to knock it unconscious, and later he winks conspiratorially at a pigeon that “helped” him take down a goon. You don't expect to see Wilford Brimley kick ass in an action film, he was no spring chicken when he made this picture, but kick ass he does and the movie is all the better for having him in it. A videophile is not only a voracious consumer of movies, TV shows, and other forms of home media content, but demands the best possible visual and audio presentation quality for them in the home environment. In playback, the audio issues aren't fatally bad, and actually the flickering DV layer on the video may well prove to be the real death sentence to playback, certainly for those who haven't got the option to watch without.In fact, barring the further audio issues, those without DV would have likely absolutely loved revisiting this action classic in 4K. This piece covers the importance of having action that enhances characters and tells a story, how he got his start working on westerns in the sixties as a stuntman, working with Hal Needham, having to slowdown as he got older and getting into doing stunt coordination and second unit directing work, working on Nowhere To Run before Hard Target, interviewing with Woo, how he had a wonderful time on set and how his portion of the shoot went really smoothly, his appreciation for the cast, using his daughter as a stunt person on the film, the great storyboards that he had to use and how Woo was so great to work with.

Excellent looking Steelbook with great extras as per the pics, however no video extras as they were on the DVD.

To give the “Muscles from Brussels” some credit, Van Damme has always seemed fully aware of both his strengths and limitations as a movie star, and was ahead of the curve in picking out talent from Hong Kong to work on his movies in America (Ringo Lam and Tsui Hark being other notable examples).

A bit where he “surfs” on a motorcycle is a real howler, and almost feels like it would have been at home in an Andy Sidaris movie. s Universal Soldier and 1994's Timecop might have been his biggest hitters at the Box Office but, sandwiched in-between, Hard Target is easily the best action film in his entire career.
