Released in 2003 totally uncut at 126 minutes on DVD by Mei Ah. For the first time, it's letterboxed, digitally re-mastered, and optional subtitles. It also includes the Mandarin soundtrack and an interview with director Wong Jing which the original DVD didn't. The British DVD version released in 2003 is the same as this version and is completely uncut.
UK cinema and video versions were cut by 41 secs to remove shots of a butterfly knife being twirled and to shorten a scene where a man threatens to slash a woman's face with a knife. The DVD released in 2003 in the UK is uncut, as all previous cuts were waived by the BBFC in December, 2002.
Hong Kong video, laser disc, video computer disc and DVD versions lack 10 minutes of footage from original theatrical release.
