A great series presented in great quality
If you haven't seen this series this is a great bundle to pick up. The movies themselves are all phenomenal and presented in crystal clear HD. The packaging is really nice featuring a solid slipcase enclosing a hardcover disk holder. The disks themselves contain the movies in 4k as well as special features in various formats. Highly recommend for fans and newcomers alike

Maintains a focused energy
The film is a dazzling orchestration taking you on a double track of mirror images, splitting and spinning reality throughoutVersions of reality usually depend on spectrums of meaning to provide delineated boundaries bringing specific information into focus. The direction towards understanding how this particular story was held together by a very strict balance did not to my mind detract from its overall value, but rather pointed to the fact that nothing will be everything to everyone, and in fact in some roundabout way proves itself as a worthy paradigm of the infinitely enduring human experience as even such a small flaw as endless repetition causes ever more reason for this disturbing reaction to contribute to its validity.But did I like it, or enjoy it? I was thoroughly amused and quite busy throughout

A Hong Kong Cinematic Classic
If you liked the movie the Departed then you should definitely check out the source material. Infernal Affairs part 1 was what The Departed is based on. This remastered edition takes all the action, suspense, intrigue, and mystery of the film and presents it in a more visually stunning form. Whenever people ask me my favorite films some may change, but infernal affairs has always been on the list.Tony Leung is one of the most skilled and famous Hong Kong actors (amazing in many Wong Kar Wai films) and he brings that same energy here.Having the lesser seen sequels and bonus material is also a treat. If you are a fan of Hong Kong crime films this is a needed addition to your collection.

The first in the trilogy is perfect
The first in the trilogy is perfect, the story makes perfect sense and it's a well executed thriller. The prequel and sexual are perfectly fine and enjoyable, but not as good as the first one.It's definitely worthy a purchase. The prequel and sequel are still better than loads of thrillers out there, and again the first one is just so good.

Awesome trilogy! Eat your heart out Scorcese!
Awesome trilogy.You can’t go wrong with this!The Departed is a weak version of this original.I agree with the other person.The packaging leaves a bit to be desired.It is however a better alternative to the World of Wong Kar Wai packaging.One thing I’m starting to notice when many boutique labels, especially Criterion, Kino Lorber and Arrow: quality control is horrendous.I buy frequently and many brand new discs have scratches it residue from the black UHD cases.In other words, brand new discs are blemished.These companies need to work on their quality control.This stuff isn’t cheap.

Everything but the packaging is super
PIcture quality: brilliant. Films: brilliant. Carboard digipack case: garbage. Why do you do this Criterion? It's an expenseive set, yet you scrimped on the packaging. I call digipaks drawer films. They belong in a drawer where nobody can see the cheap case.
