Meet Nico. He’s a cop with an attitude.

Steven Seagal’s explosive screen acting debut, smashing his way into the top ranks of action stars as he tracks some very dodgy ex-CIA operatives up to no good. A slam bang 80s treat (“the action sequences will knock you out of your seat!” – Jeffrey Lyons, Sneak Previews), directed by Andrew Davis (The Fugitive), and co-starring Sharon Stone (Basic Instinct), Pam Grier (Jackie Brown) and Henry Silva (Sharkey’s Machine), this 2-disc release features a brand new 4K restoration and new extras.

Toy Robot says: “Seeing Seagal in a black tee waving a sword around in 4K is ‘robot’s kiss’”

You can’t play by the rules when there aren’t any

Action superstars Chow Yun-Fat (The Killer) and Mark Wahlberg (The Departed) are cops embroiled in a brutal triad turf war in New York in this stylish thriller directed by James Foley (At Close Range), with breathtaking cinematography and spectacular action sequences (“including a superbly choreographed car chase through the streets of Chinatown” – Stephen Holden, The New York Times) – all the more exciting in a sparkling 4K restoration. The 2-disc release includes a host of new extras.

Toy Robot says: “I haven’t seen this much corruption since my motherboard packed in”

A Man of Reason Blu-ray 16th November
He wants his family. His past wants him dead.

The acclaimed directing debut of Korean superstar Jung Woo-sung, this is a fast-paced rollercoaster ride of action and mayhem, starring Jung Woo-sung (The Good, The Bad, The Weird) as a former hitman whose attempts to lead a normal life are scuppered by his vengeful former boss, a nasty gangster brilliantly played by Park Sung-woong (Netflix’s Bloodhounds). [Blu-ray]

Zipang Blu-ray on 16th November 
An incredibly entertaining and wild fantasy adventure

A 90s Japanese fantasy epic in a class all of its own, starring Masahiro Takashima (Godzilla Vs. Mechagodzilla II) as a samurai outlaw up against a female bounty hunter (Narumi Yasuda, Peacock King). Described by The Village Voice as “utterly delirious”, it features supernatural ninja warriors, astonishingly choreographed sword play and wildly unpredictable plot twists [Blu-ray].

Toy Robot says: “You’ll be rooting for this marvellous motley crew and an animatronic elephant!”
