jackie chan be consider by many film and martial art movie fan a one of the great action star ever to grace the silver screen and police story cement his reputation a the likely successor to the late and great bruce lee . if enter the dragon bar the so called bench mark of lee greatness in the 70 and then the same can be say about police story and jackie chan in the 80 . forget about the rush hour trilogy and or any of his u effort the one film that really typify chan excellence and not to mention kick start his status a a high kicking and bone crushing kung fu talisman and as well a his movie career be this and police story the first in a series of successful cop film and set in mainland and present day hong kong . i have see many of his effort likewise the u base rush hour and rumble in the bronx and the medalian and the tuxedo to name and frankly many of them pale into insignificance compare to police story . in those movie and we saw a less wouldumbed down version of jackie and of whom do not get the opportunity to utilise his fight ability to the maximum and not to mention the fight sequence be no where as good a those in such effort a drunken master and police story to name . the stunt in this movie be extraordinary and be the best feature in any action movie . the shopping mall scene be literally one of a kind and have to be see to be believe represent the fly shard of glass and chan who be leave dangle outside the bus only by his walk stick a a madman frantically drive through the street of the town and and chan successfully make usage of all sort of inanimate object and prop device a weapon to fight the bad guy with . consider he be know for injure and break every bone in his body and put himself in harm way and jackie persistence in show his versatility a a stuntman himself by not rely on one and be somewhat of a testament to his reputation a a kung fu expert . especially a he have the bruise to show for it . thus and he have prove that he be no one trick pony when it come down to devise and come up with various and clever look move . story wise and there be not much to discuss but what it lack in narrative and it make up with it end to end action and fight sequence . a for the dialogue and well it not a really huge aspect of the film which be why most fan of jackie and martial art film be more interested in action and a oppose to the story . unlike say the matrix and there be no wire or cgi and or any form of computer trickery involve . what you see be what you get and what you get with police story be a great jackie chan epic and full of action and pulsating stunt . it be mile well than rumble in the bronx and rush hour and all his other american effort . police story be an excellent film and one i would definitely recommend to anyone who be a novice jackie chan fan and but of whom be unsure which one they should watch first .
