- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 September 2022On The Run is a movie which doesn’t get spine about a lot, but it’s one hell of a film.
Yuen Biao in his most serious role, along side Pat Ha deliver great performances. Great villains also as corrupt cops in Charlie Chin, Yuen Wah, Phillip Ko and Lo Lieh.
Blu Ray looks awesome, I’ve had the Vhs and Vcd for years, so good seeing this in real quality and makes it an even better watch.
Includes, double sided poster, movie cards and booklet. Worth the money

Images in this review - Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 September 2022Very good film. Violent and clever film. Similar to a lot of modern day action films with some shocking moments you would not see in Western films. I can see why America wanted to buy the rights to it at the time
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 September 2022This review is for the Amazing 88Films Blu-ray Limited Edition.
PLOT...
A police officer must solve his wife's murder before corrupt members of his department catch up to him.
Released in 1988 On The Run is another great Hong Kong action thriller, a great story that sees a cop solving his wife's murder with help unwillingly from the Female Assassin that did it. A good few twists and turns as you can imagine, and an unpredictable outcome. The movie has some good action, bloody shootouts and some great fights and stunts, this is not a showcase martial arts movie but more of a gritty bloody brawling movie. The cast is amazing, every star is great, some lovely ladies too as usual. This is yet another must for the collection, especially this beautiful 88Films Limited Edition which is just amazing, highly recommended if you love this genre of movies.
The Blu-ray has a great HD picture for its age.
Features include 2 commentaries, trailer, and 2 interviews (39mins)
Plus, the Amazing Rigid box with brilliant new artwork, a fantastic large double-sided poster made from good quality thick paper, 80-page book with plentiful info and photos, 6 art cards.
Region B UK. Running time 90mins. 1988. Cantonese with English subtitles.
88Films smashing it again and again with these quality releases.

4.0 out of 5 stars An underseen Noir Classic
Remarkably bleak pre-handover Hong Kong noir thriller with some very good performances, several cool set pieces and an extremely memorable showdown.
And a great Blu Ray release!

5.0 out of 5 stars Très bon film
Un très bon film avec Yuen Biao et certains autres acteurs très connus des films hongkongais comme certains de la Shaw brothers. Ce film est très bien réalisé et de bonne qualité visuelle. Il est bien dommage d'avoir des petites perles qui ne sont jamais commercialisées en France il faut passer par ÍøÆغÚÁÏ UK pour pouvoir avoir de superbes films asiatiques quand on est fan et surtout soit parler et comprendre le chinois, le Cantonais ou l'anglais pour profiter pleinement comme moi de ces perles rares. A quand la France commercialisera ce genre de film. La France avait commencé à vendre des bluray de la Shaw brothers soit 2 coffrets et puis plus rien depuis 10 ans hors que les autres pays ont tous les bluray disponibles. Il faut je crois se contenter encore bien des années de la plupart des films hongkongais de l'époque en dvd.
