A virtuous Hong Kong police officer (Jackie Chan) must clear his good name when the drug lords he is after frame him for the murder of a dirty cop.
My knowledge of Jackie Chan is pretty limited, and I have to confess I have not seen many of his films. Apparently this was his breakout role in action films, and it really is a triumph. The stunts are incredible, the action is superb, and there is a lot of broken glass. I was already fascinated from the beginning, when an entire town is destroyed! The film can be watched in either English or Cantonese. I am not sure how accurate the translation is on the dubbing, but the English is pretty funny. The film itself is supposed to be funny, so I am not saying the dubbing itself is humorous -- I am just curious how closely the words match.
