Had a chance to borrow this and found the DVD to be very good. Much better than any HK release and on a par with HKL releases. 2 discs is a fantastic case. The extras are extensive and either in English or with optional English subtitles.
The film is on one disc, by itself, 16x9 1.66:1 transfer and it looks very good. 5.1 sound is better than average for Hong Kong, though the surrounds only come to life in the rain and during certain music pieces.
The movie, well, other than the expected horrible/sad/depressing Wong Kar-Wai ending, I loved it. A real cinematic achievement that uses the medium to tell the story. Maggie Cheung is so good (not to mention so good looking) I fell in love with her even harder!
