Jackie Chan plays Kevin a Hong Kong cop who must protect the secretary (Brigette Lin) of a shady businessman who's willing to do anything to keep her from testifying and setting him up to take a fall. Jackie Chan's Police Story to me is one of the best genre films ever made, there are simply no words to explain the wow factor of the opening action sequence or the mall fight scene where Chan outdoes himself, and Lin proves to be no meter maid herself. The one flaw is that a lot of the girlfriend subplot with Maggie Cheung while not bad, gets in the way of the story. That said Police Story remains one of my favorite Jackie Chan movies and is a must see alongside Dragons Forever, Wheels In Meals and Drunken Master 1-2. Indeed said movies were my go to explanation as to why I didn't care for Rush Hour and Shanghai Noon, as from my point of view, Police Story (and it's sequels) we're the real thing.
