Police Story
From the master of action comes more screen excitement than you've ever seen.
Directed by Jackie Chan
Produced by Golden Way Films Ltd., Paragon Films
A high-octane action-comedy that balances spectacular martial arts and vehicular mayhem with humor and charm, anchored by a cop protecting a witness against organized crime.
Officer Chan Ka Kui manages to put a major Hong Kong drug dealer behind the bars practically alone, after a shooting and an impressive chase inside a slum. Now, he must protect the boss' secretary, Selina, who will testify against the gangster in court.
