For the first time ever, Jackie Chan's "Police Story" trilogy is getting a 4K UHD box set. It's available for pre-order on Amazon's U.K. site, but the set is region free, meaning that you can watch it anywhere with the player you already have. The title will be released on September 26, 2022 and it retails for £65.35. The delivery fee is £11.55 if you're in the U.K., and they will ship internationally as well. This thriller of a trilogy set has some great special features (via CityOnFire), and includes "Police Story," directed by Jackie Chan from 1985, "Police Story 2," directed by Chan in 1988, and "Police Story 3: Supercop," directed by Stanley Tong in 1992, which also stars Michelle Yeoh ("Everything Everywhere All at Once").

This is a whole lot of "Police Story" stuff for not that much money, even with the exchange rate. You might have to wait a bit for it to arrive, but it's pretty fantastic. I love the fact that it has the Hong Kong theatrical version with audio commentary and the "American English" dub track. Plus, Michelle Yeoh and Jackie Chan are doing their own dubbing.
