Zavvi - The Home of Pop Culture
Following Escape from New York and The Thing, John Carpenter and Kurt Russell re-unite for this mystical, action, adventure, comedy, kung-fu, monster, ghost story!
Russell plays Jack Burton, a reasonable guy who is about to experience some unreasonable things in San Francisco's Chinatown. As his friend's fiancée is kidnapped Jack becomes embroiled in a centuries-old battle between good and evil. At the root of it all is Lo Pan, a 2000-year-old magician who rules an empire of evil spirits. Jack goes to the rescue dodging demons, goblins and the unstoppable Three Storms as he battles through Lo Pan's dark domain.
One of Carpenters most enjoyable and best loved films, Big Trouble in Little China brilliantly juggles delirious set-pieces, comedy and kung-fu action with a razor sharp script of corking one-liners, as Jack would say 'It's all in the reflexes'.

Big Trouble Big Fun
I've always loved this film and it looks amazing on blu ray. The Commentary Track is worth the price alone and features John Carpenter and Kurt Russell obviously enjoying each others company while watching the film together.

Slice of fried 80s Gold
Somehow missed this film when I was a kid... difficult given my brother watched it every single day of the Summer holidays. Marshal arts madness and black magic from the man who brought you The Thing and Halloween. Cracking blu-ray edition filled with special features. Enjoy.

Big trouble in little China arrow bluray
Great picture quality as usual for arrow blu=ray. Nice collectibles to keep, cherish and rewatch. Lots of special features for the film fanatics who like more in-depth making of and behind the scenes. Alway’s a great watch,improved picture quality always lets you see something you could not on dvd or vhs.

Big trouble in little China
Action comedy with a twist. Let the "funny" side-kick be the hero. This is one of my favourite 80s comedies.

Great Quality As Expected From Arrow
As always I will review the product not the film as taste is subjective (although, I do like this film). The Blu-ray presentation as always with Arrow is great with a really nice transfer, clear and a huge upgrade from dvd. The sound also is transferred well. Plenty of extras as always. You are either considering this because you are a fan of the film or a Blu-ray collector, and I'm sure both those categories will be happy with this purchase.

Classic.....love it!
One of the best films ever, I used to watch this 3 times a day as a kid and I always got scared when the alleyway fight took place. I even married a girl with green eyes cause of this film loool. You never get bored of watching a classic and this is exactly that! 5 star movie ; )
