Blu-Ray Review: ‘Hard Boiled’ Stands as Riveting Action Classic
Submitted by BrianTT on December 15, 2010 - 11:03pmCHICAGO – John Woo changed my life. I was just the right age when I saw “The Killer” and “Hard Boiled” that they blew my mind. Wait, you mean not all foreign films look like Jean-Luc Godard? I was young enough that I thought foreign meant boring. There’s NOTHING boring about the prime of John Woo and one of his best, “Hard Boiled” has now been released on Blu-ray. And it still blows my mind.
