Yes, Madam! | Bu-ray (Eureka)

RELEASE DATE: December 12, 2022

On December 12, 2022, Eureka will be releasing the Blu-ray (Region B) for Yes, Madam! (aka Police Assassins), a 1985 Hong Kong actioner directed by Corey Yuen (My Father is a Hero).

This all-star great stars Michelle Yeoh (Everything Everywhere All at Once), Cynthia Rothrock (Showdown in Manila), John Sham (Twinkle Twinkle Lucky Stars), Meng Hoi (Blonde Fury), Tsui Hark (The Bodyguard), James Tien (The Tattooed Dragon), Dick Wei (Horrible High Heels) and Tai Bo (Dragon Lord).

Originally released as Police Assassins in the UK, Yes, Madam! was the first starring role for both Michelle Yeoh and Cynthia Rothrock, who stunned audiences with their incredible athleticism and stunt work. Produced by Sammo Hung and John Sham, the film is as expected, an incredible action showcase in the inimitable Hong Kong style of the time.

Michelle Yeoh and Cynthia Rothrock star as a couple of tough-as-nails police inspectors investigating the murder of a British agent, which leads them to a pair of unlucky thieves (Mang Hoi and John Shum) who need protection from a ruthless crime boss (James Tien).

Launching both a successful franchise (the In the Line of Duty series) as well as an entire sub-genre of action cinema (“girls-with-guns” – a genre which did not truly exist before this film), Yes, Madam! is one of the most important and influential action films of its era, and Eureka Classics is proud to present the film in its UK debut on Blu-ray from a brand new 2K restoration.
