Police Story II

 (1988)

Police Story II Blu-ray features bad video and decent audio in this poor Blu-ray release

His personal war against crime has earned Kevin Chan a demotion from detective to traffic cop just as Hong Kong is hit with a wave of bomb scares. Chan unofficially follows up his own leads and tracks down the bombers, but not before his girlfriend is abducted.

Starring: Jackie Chan, Maggie Cheung, Kwok-Hung Lam
Director: Jackie Chan


Police Story II Blu-ray, Video Quality

  1.5 of 5

Presented in an aspect ratio of 2.35:1, encoded with MPEG-4 AVC and granted a 1080p transfer, Jackie Chan's Police Story II arrives on Blu-ray courtesy of Hong Kong-based distributors Kam & Ronson Enterprises.

The transfer for Police Story II is underwhelming. It looks slightly better than the transfer for Police Story, but there are still a number of serious issues with it. Detail ranges from average to poor (the close-ups, in particular, look extremely weak), clarity is very inconsistent and contrast levels problematic throughout the entire film. The color-scheme is also unconvincing; reds, blues, greens, yellows and especially blacks look pale. As it was the case with Police Story, this transfer is plagued by heavy macroblocking. Some occasional frame transition issues are also very easy to spot. Finally, I noticed a number of flecks and tiny scratches while viewing the film. All in all, while Police Story II looks slightly better than Police Story, it is nowhere near as convincing as many probably hoped it would be. (Note: This is a Region-A "locked" Blu-ray disc. Therefore, you must have a native Region-A or Region-Free player in order to access its content).


Police Story II Blu-ray, Audio Quality

  3.0 of 5

There are three audio tracks on this Blu-ray disc: Cantonese Dolby TrueHD 7.1, Mandarin Dolby TrueHD 7.1 and Thai Dolby Digital EX 6.1. I opted for the Cantonese Dolby TrueHD 7.1 track.

Once again, we have a very front-heavy mix. Even during the final twenty or so minutes, when Jackie Chan deals with the gangsters at the large warehouse and there are plenty of explosions, the surround activity isn't overly impressive. Again, the bass appears to have been boosted, though not as much as it is in Police Story. The music is also slightly uneven. Generally speaking, the dialog is easy to follow, but there is some mild background hiss that might annoy the more sensitive amongst you. Strong pops and cracks, however, are not present. For the record, Kam & Ronson Enterprises have provided optional English, Traditional Chinese and Thai subtitles for the main feature. When turned on, they appear inside the image frame.
