Video is definitely not a highlight either. The print used is riddled with heavy dirt and grain. At times, it’s hard to read the expressions on the character’s faces. Colors are bleeding into each other or so faded they’re barely distinguishable. Even closing in on 30 years old and being low budget, the film’s star should warrant some clean up.

While listed as having a DTS mix, this might as well be mono. The subwoofer has nothing to work with regardless of how heavy the action becomes. Rear speaker audio has obviously been added recently, both due to an obvious clarity increase and car horns that sound amazingly modern for a film set in the 1930s. Center channel audio, where most of the sound resides, is scratchy and at times hard to make out. The DTS mix simply makes this more obvious. Music completely overruns the dialogue in spots.

Extras, if you can call them that, are trailers. Two are for Battle Creek Brawl, and one hilariously is “redone” with special effects that make it seem like it was tossed together in a weekend. That’s not an extra.

Cannonball Run would follow a year later, giving Jackie Chan another attempt at winning over an audience in the U.S. That film's sequel would be yet another a few years later. It would take until 1995 for him to finally break into the mainstream with Rumble in the Bronx, along with 1998's Rush Hour, and his Hong Kong efforts would thankfully be recognized by a wider audience. First impressions aren’t everything.
