Police Story
Jackie Chan's mind-blowing, high-octane extravaganza of death-defying stunts and action comedy.
Director: Jackie Chan
Overview
A mind-blowing, high-octane extravaganza from the extraordinary Jackie Chan, whose death-defying stunts and elegant blending of action and comedy have made him the natural heir to his (self-confessed) inspiration, Buster Keaton. The first entry in the Police Story series sees Chan’s sergeant determined to bring down a major crime lord. But in doing so, he risks his career and puts his girlfriend in danger.
