Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “My 4K Pick of the week is Police Story 3, though The Raid: Retribution comes a very close second. Otherwise, I’m definitely looking to pick up Yakuza Graveyard.” Blaine says, “nothing jumps out at me this week.”
Admittedly I was watching it for the fight scenes and the Silat, but I also liked Raid: Redemption.
I watched Run Silent, Run Deep a few months ago. That was tense and brilliantly acted.
My disappointment in the Happytime Murders is profound.
