88 Films Presents In the Line of Duty I – IV, 

On May 16th, 88 Films releases In the Line of Duty I – IV (4-Disc Deluxe Collector’s Edition) with stunning new 2K restorations of all four films.

These four classic police stories from the Golden Age of Hong Kong action broke new ground showing women kicking butt as hard as any man! Michelle Yeoh, Cynthia Rothrock and Cynthia Kahn star as the toughest cops on the streets, using fists, feet and guns to take down triads, thieves and international criminals. Easily the equal of any American action movies from the same era, the In the Line of Duty series are enduring proof of the genius (and recklessness) of Hong Kong filmmakers. 88 Films are proud to do their bit for law and order, with beautiful HD restorations of these four landmark movies.

Royal Warriors (1986) stars Academy Award Winner Michelle Yeoh as Inspector Yip. While returning from a holiday in Japan, she stops the mid-air rescue of a mobster headed to Hong Kong for trial. This seeming heroic act comes to haunt Yip as the mobster’s family sets out for revenge. The Blu-ray features newly translated English subtitles; Audio Commentary by Hong Kong film expert Frank Djeng; Missing Aeroplane Inserts; Cantonese and English Trailers; and the English In the Line of Duty titles.

In Yes, Madam! (1985) Michelle Yeoh stars as Inspector Ng, who teams up with Cynthia Rothrock‘s tough-as-nails Scottish Investigator Carrie Morris to retrieve microfilm that has unknowingly been stolen by two low-level thieves. The Blu-ray features both the Hong Kong Cut and Export Version with classic English Dub; Audio Commentary by Frank Djeng (HK Version); Select Scene Commentary with Cynthia Rothrock and Frank Djeng; Interviews with Cynthia Rothrock, Men Hoi and Michelle Yeoh; Archive Battling Babes Featurette; and the Hong Kong Trailer.

In the Line of Duty III (1988) stars Cynthia Khan as Detective Rachel Yeung, who’s tracking down a pair of terrorists who, after a bloody Tokyo heist, have fled to Hong Kong. The Blu-ray features Audio Commentary by Frank Djeng and Michael Worth; an Interview with John Sham by Frederic Ambroisine; Hong Kong and English Trailers; and English Credits.

In the Line of Duty IV (1989)stars Cynthia Kahn as Detective Yeung, who’s hot on the trail on a drug dealer, with the help of Inspectors Yan (Donnie Yen) and Inspector Wong (Michael Wong).
