Rain of Swords: John Woo's Reign of Assassins in November
Posted on November 19, 2010 at 09:01 by Ulrik.Tweet this
YesAsia just listed the Hong Kong Blu-ray Disc (and DVD) release of John Woo's wuxia-adventure Reign of Assassins (also known as Rain of Swords in The Pugilistic World) starring Michelle Yeoh for November 25th. Just as expected from Mega Star, both versions will include English subtitles.
The retailer states that the disc will be locked to Region A, but knowing Mega Star there's a good chance that it might end up region free after all.
Click the banner below for some teaser and trailer footage from the flick.
[Thanks to Supavince for the heads up!]

Obligatory notice: this film has been picked up by the Weinstein Company for the United States. The recent review of the film in Variety states clearly that the Weinstein version will "undergo some tinkering" before its still-unscheduled release. Persons in the US who want to see this film in an intact state would probably do well to import this disc, barring any as-yet-unknown issues with it.
