(Jackie Chan, 1985, Hong Kong, 106 minutes)
In the movie that made him an international star, Jackie Chan plays policeman Ka-kui in the newly-restored Police Story. Ka-kui finds the need to go rogue to protect a star witness (Brigitte Lin, Chungking Express) against the retribution of a local drug lord. All of this is a vehicle for Chan to engage in some of the most memorable cinematic stunts this side of Buster Keaton—haven’t you ever seen a man hang from an umbrella hooked to the side of a moving bus before?
In Cantonese with English subtitles.
