Yup. Pretty much none, as I recall. But there is some Cantonese dialog. 
I'd be curious to know how the Japanese subtitlers handle it. (It is not 
very complimentary about Japan and the Japanese, ahem.)

I would not be surprised if the original English subtitles for the 
Cantonese dialog are still in the prints being shown in Japanese 
theaters, but you never really know about these things.
