The 2002 Hong Kong action film So Close , directed by legendary fight choreographer , stands as a high-tech update to the "Girls with Guns" genre that dominated Asian cinema in the 1980s. The film’s 720p BluRay release with dual audio (Hindi and the original language) offers a polished visual experience of its balletic action, even as it highlights the movie's unique blend of "Matrix-style" CGI and traditional wirework.
