PTU - Police Tactical Unit
About the Film:
"Incredibly Entertaining"
- Elvis Mitchell, New York Times

SANTA MONICA, CA - As the lights go down on the dangerous streets of Hong Kong, police forces and street gangs will meet with the cruel hand of fate as the latest Dragon Dynasty release, PTU: POLICE TACTICAL UNIT debuts on DVD from Genius Products and The Weinstein Company. The martial arts masterpiece boasts an assortment of awards for renowned director Johnny To (The Mission, Running Out of Time) including Best Director at the Hong Kong Film Awards, Asian Trade Winds Award at the Seattle International Film Festival, and the Special Jury Prize at the Cognac Festival du Film Policier.

Additionally, the film swept the Golden Bauhinia Awards winning for Best Director, Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Screenplay and Best Supporting Actor. With notable performances by Hong Kong talents Simon Yam (Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life, Kill Zone), Lam Suet (Kung Fu Hustle, Fatal Contact) and Maggie Siu (Election), PTU: POLICE TACTICAL UNIT follows a band of night patrol cops on one of their worst nights. After a gang leader is mysteriously murdered and a sergeant, in pursuit of a suspect, loses his gun, a tenacious police tactical unit and their iron-willed leader find themselves in the middle of a war between two gangs, building towards an explosive and violent conclusion. Gritty, stylish and unpredictable, "the suddenness and ferocious beauty of the film's violence is trumped only by its unexpected wellsprings."
