I just got an e-mail today from “Shout Studios!” that makes me very happy! In 2026, the John Woo / Chow Yun-Fat classics HARD BOILED (1992), A BETTER TOMORROW (1986), and THE KILLER (1989) will be getting extremely limited theatrical releases. If you love these movies as much as I do, or if you want to see some of the greatest action films of all time, I just want to make sure my readers are aware of this incredible opportunity. You can buy your tickets now, and I’ve checked and they’re even playing in Little Rock, Arkansas, so I know they’ll be playing all over the country. The schedule is as follows:
- HARD BOILED – January 25th, 26th and 28th
- A BETTER TOMORROW – March 1st, 2nd, and 4th
- THE KILLER – April 5th, 6th, and 8th
These may be being released during tax season, but I usually take Sundays off and each of these limited windows include a Sunday. YAY!! This is finally my chance to see these iconic films on the big screen! I hope some of you will plan to watch them as well! To whet your appetite, enjoy this incredible action sequence from THE KILLER!
