DVD Review: Crime Story - Page 3

Extras. There is a nice complement of extras packed on the disk.

• Commentary. The track features director Kirk Wong and HK cinema expert Bey Logan. This is a good track with plenty of background information about the characters, locations, and other trivia.
• Interview: Kirk Wong. This interview runs for 30 minutes and covers much of the production of the film.
• Interview: Teddy Chan. Chan was the screenwriter, and this covers the writing process and how the film was developed. It runs for 12 minutes.
• Deleted Scenes. Three deleted scenes are included, totaling 5.5 minutes. None of them would have added much, though it is nice to have them included.
• Trailers. Both the original HK trailer, as well as the US promo trailer are included.

Bottom line. This is a good movie, not great by any stretch, but it is definitely a good addition to your Chan collection. There is a distinctly different feel to it, and the action is still explosive.

Recommended.
