Future Cops Limited Edition Blu-Ray

Sale price399 kr

This edition of Future Cops is presented from a studio-supplied HD transfer that Eureka had no involvement in. Unfortunately, the master is just below the level of quality we would normally expect. Despite our persistent efforts, the studio would not allow us to restore the film. As this may be the last chance for this cult classic to receive a physical release in the UK, we have decided to proceed with a very limited release of 1,000 copies. We don't believe that the minor flaws in the film copy will affect your enjoyment of this crazy martial arts extravaganza. Please note that this will be the only physical release of this film that we will be releasing; there will be no standard re-release.

Inspired by Capcom's best-selling video game Street Fighter II, Future Cops is a blend of martial arts action, comedy, and science fiction directed by Wong Jing (God of Gamblers) and featuring an impressive ensemble cast including Andy Lau (Casino Raiders), Jacky Cheung (Once Upon a Time in China), Aaron Kwok (Throw Down), Chingmy Yau (Royal Tramp), and Simon Yam (PTU).

In 2043, the evil criminal The General (Ken Lo, Drunken Master II) has been imprisoned for his heinous crimes. However, his loyal followers Kent (Ekin Cheng, Young and Dangerous), Thai King (Billy Chow, High Risk), and Toyota (William Duen, Crime Story) have a plan to free him: they will travel back in time and eliminate the judge who sentenced him. They are followed into the past by Lung (Kwok), Broomhead (Cheung), Ti Man (Lau), and Sing (Yam), "Future Cops" who plan to keep the general in prison where he belongs. But when both cops and criminals arrive in 1993 to search for the judge—who was only a teenager at the time—they find themselves not only embroiled in a battle for the future... but also in a high school drama. Future Cops was released in 1993 (shortly after City Hunter, another Wong Jing film based on the Capcom series) and beat the first official film adaptation of Street Fighter to the cinemas by a whole year. Eureka Classics is proud to present the film on Blu-ray for the first time in the UK in this special edition.
