Please note that I saw this movie on TV so I can't speak to the quality of the video transfer or its features (although, based on the negative reviews here, it sounds like it wasn't that good).
I watched this movie recently after a hiatus of 17 years and it held up very well. Despite the length of the movie, it never drags and the suspense just keeps mounting from beginning to end. I read that the train wreck was real, in an age before CGI, making that one of the great action sequences of all time.
Lee and Ford are perfect in their roles, and the supporting cast does an excellent job as well. There are just no false notes anywhere with the characters in this movie, not to mention all the spellbinding action. You're better off watching this one again on a slow night rather than most of the stuff currently coming out of Hollywood.
My only quip is that I think the phony tissue samples would have been discovered during the drug's FDA approval process--especially considering they were said to be from the same liver--but this is a minor point considering the movie's overall strengths. All in all still a great flick that rewards watching more than once.
