I didn’t expect this: two films that really got under my skin with their directness and bleakness. I don’t want to say much about the content—the descriptions provided here are spot-on, and any further words would be too much.
You have to be willing to engage with them—both films drag a bit in places—but they offer an unvarnished glimpse into a Japanese reality that some people, I’m afraid, are unaware of or simply don’t want to imagine.
Realistic and harsh—no prisoners are taken here!
Great insight on this Lee's first film since returning to Hong Kong from US after Green Hornet ended. Improvement in color with Blu Ray, Long live his memory, Bruce Lee.🙏😌
Absolutely storming release of my favourite John Woo film. Having owned numerous varying quality tapes and discs of a number of the different cuts, this is, without a doubt the definitive edition. You get the theatrical edit and many of the other scenes and the boardroom ending as extras, and on the second disc (exclusove to the limited edition?) you get numerous variants of ‘The Festival Cut’ with and without the boardroom ending and several scenes that were exclusive to the theatrical cut. There’s a third disc with what seems to be all the extras from the old HKL dvd and a whole bunch of modern interviews, etc.
Great movie with great action and the best company to deal with our orders if truly love action number one place to purchase for the best by the best
Finally, after years, the best version to watch on Blu-ray player
Fantastic value for the best 👍 number 1 place for action movies can't go wrong big brilliant film excellent fight action highly recommend for all true fans
I was very happy with the speed of the delivery and it came in perfect condition. The case looks beautiful!
The slipcover is slick and looks gorgeous. Really pleased to have picked this up brand new and sealed for the price it is compared to some eBay and CEX prices for the standard Blu-ray. Will be buying more from this site!
The film was very entertaining. Loved Story of Riki, so i figured why not. Quality from this company is also top tier.
Product is sold as advertised. Seller took care of shipping well. Will definitely do business with seller again and also recommend to friends and families.
As with previous purchases, everything arrived in perfect condition and considering it was being sent to Australia, the shipping time was relatively quick. Thanks as always, Terracotta Distribution! Also, The Blade is so damn good if you haven’t seen it go buy a copy now!
Heartfelt character dramas will always be told as stories, in films and other media. Sadly, the chanbara style of stories, particularly in film and TV, are in a slow decline in Japan. And this film laments that, but in a wonderful way. Any fan of samurai films is bound to love this film, in my opinion, as it respects both the genre and the work that goes into making the films. Uzumasa Limelight will leave you hoping that Japan never stops making these films and TV shows, for the sake of the fans and their crew members. And don't get hung up on it being a loose remake of Charlie Chaplin's Limelight. Remakes can sometimes work, and this is one of the best I've ever seen.
Box sets once again arrived in perfect condition, due to the excellent work from the Terracotta packing department. Parcel did take a nasty knock on it’s way from the UK, but goods remained pristine inside, due to the extra care taken by Terracotta. What an amazing release. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I’d see John Woo’s “Bullet in the Head” looking this good. Top job by Arrow for making this possible. Absolutely Brilliant! Thank you again Terracotta!
Thanks to Terracotta distribution . As always really well packaged for the long journey over here. Very happy to be able to add this fantastic box set to my collection. Great series of films from start to finish. Thanks so much.
An awesome film, loads of action and adventure. Plus some great humour too. Highly recommend. Thank you #terracottastore
A fantastic film, blew me away. Would highly recommend if you like period set dramas. Plus this blu ray looks beautiful
