I got Cheung Fo (aka The Mission) on DVD from Netflix because it was a Johnnie To film I hadn’t seen and it had plenty of actors in it I like.
The movie itself is certainly enjoyable but the Netflix DVD is terrible. It’s hard scaled for older TVs, so it shows up as a small letterboxed window completely surrounded by black borders. As if that weren’t terrible enough, it also had a large, ghosted watermark in the middle of the movie the entire time!
I really should have turned it off but something made me push through and finish it. I’d love to watch a decent DVD or BluRay version of the movie to make up for this horrible experience.
