Title number 025 on our Black Label. See here for full range.

101 Films presents Robert Longo's cyberpunk classic Johnny Mnemonic (1995), released on Blu-ray for the first time in the UK. Adapted for the screen by visionary writer William Gibson from his own short story, and starring Keanu Reeves in a role that paved the way for his lead role in the Matrix series, Johnny Mnemonic is a futuristic thrill-ride that will blow your mind.


It’s the year 2021 and Johnny (Keanu Reeves) is a data courier with a secret: he is carrying a dangerous stash of information in his mind and must race against time, money and gangsters to deliver the package and save himself. Accompanied by physically enhanced bodyguard Jane (Dina Meyer), Johnny sets out to acquire the passwords he needs to save himself. Worse yet, he is hunted by gangster Shinji (Denis Akiyama) and businessman Takahashi (Takeshi), both of whom seek the data Johnny possesses.

  • Audio commentary by film critic Rich Johnson
  • Limited Edition Booklet: Features 'Future Proof: A Cyberpunk 101' by Rich Johnson and 'The Semiotic Ghosts of William Gibson' by Brian J. Robb

Most have been soft cardboard slipbox and some hard cardboard it varies the type used

Silent Night Deadly Night 1 & 2 limited edition and Snowtown limited was a hard cardboard slipbox

The Last Broadcast limited edition was soft cardboard slipbox

The standard editions are just a amaray
They are usually in a thin slipbox with white spine and the print is on the box itself. Unlike other brands that have a printed film wrapped around the box. The only edition I know of from 101 Films that has this is the Silent Night Deadly Night Limited edition.

Snowtown was hard cardboard slipbox




The only way you will know if Johnny Mnemonic is soft or hard cardboard slipbox is when released and someone post photos or a unboxing video

Sometimes 101 films post in hand photos on facebook or twiiter before release date
 
Can't remember if this was released in the UK, so not sure what the sound and video specs will be, but guessing no remaster or anything right?
 
Got this delivered a few days ago, and have not opened it yet.

Anyway the specs are up here and its 1080i. Strange why every other release of this movie is 1080p. Not sure if to keep this as no idea what the picture will be like but don't want to open it to find out.
