Video

From a recent master, Yes, Madam sports excellent detail in close and when still. Grain is easily resolved thanks to a fine encode. Sharpness holds firm too.

Unfortunately, filtering leads to light smearing and the occasionally waxy moment, especially at mid-range. Detail looks wiped, and what grain does hover over the image takes on an artificiality.

That's a shame since Yes, Madam looks otherwise superb. Firm color replication emboldens flesh tones, and Hong Kong scenery shows superb color density. Primaries glow, assisted by the consistent black levels. Yes, Madam's contrast doesn't let up either, perky and bold.

Audio

The audio menu defaults to original Cantonese DTS-HD, and a Cantonese home video mix is offered too. A fresh English dub in 5.1 is available too, but it's hardly worth the trouble. Either of the Cantonese mixes suffer from harsh, hard-on-the-ears dialog and it;s better to have this one turned down low - as firm a criticism as they come in the home theater enthusiast department. Blown out treble impacts all sound effects, from gunshots to tires squealing. Yes, Madam is pitched far too high.
